Most important part of this piece is getting the wings right!

dechirico7
11-29-2017, 05:02 PM
Clear wings with some translucent paint might work.
Might not want them as clear as the artwork. It would be hard to see them on display.

I do hope that little support piece underneath the front foot is not permanent. The back foot doesn't have it.

I think it will be. Otherwise she might not be stable, standing on her tiptoes. I am sure it will be clear. David I go said the top of the compass will be clear, and it looks like the support is part of it.

Very nice. I had thought they might do Alice next...

Interested to see how this progresses!

And my bet is if they do a variant, it will be wing color(s).

They made it work with Jessica Rabbit standing on her itsy, bitsy, teeny little feet :p

Could be due to the rod supports. Maybe they can't use the same rod sizes for these smaller pieces....

I wonder if the wings will be completed anything like the ones that were done for the Soulfire Grace (Aspen/Fathom) line?? That could be cool!

If the Wasp statue from the Avengers Assemble line is any indication, then Tinkerbell's wings will be translucent, too. So, yea, there's a strong chance her wings will look just as good (or better) than Soulfire Grace.

Just noticed that, I wish they wouldn't only because odds are it will be painted very poorly like the small vines on the Poison Ivy PF, where the paint of the vines ends up on her skin too.

Whelp this is a buy for sure. I just hope they don't do the Store variant. It made sense with the Little Mermaid, but Tink is Tink. She wears green and that is that. Though if they are having the cards with all their statues that come out through SS I may pick up the regular version of the Mermaid to get it.

They look awesome. The frosted clear resin adds a nice consistent element to them. Even though they are in different scales, it still looks like they will display well together. I wonder if they will show the inside of Tink's base?

I really like the scale of these. I don't have any room for new premium formats, just shelves above them. And these will fit perfect.

I love these. Now bring on Alice and the next one, and the next one.....

If i had to pick 1 nit, It would be nice if the bases were a 100% like for like match in terms of style. It also seems like they are slightly out of scale, which seems...weird.

Other than that, though, this line has a ton of potential.

I'm not busting anyone's reasoning for buying them, but JSC simply took beloved children's characters and sexualized them. Statues are now being made of those sexualized versions and people are loving it. There are actually statues of the normal Disney characters out there, but no one seems to care too much for those. Not our main demographic anyway.

I'd happily buy well-done statues of actual Disney characters. In fact, I already own the Evil Queen, Maleficent and Jessica Rabbit PFs that Sideshow did. Unfortunately, they seem to have either no interest in doing more, or don't have the license any longer.

The appeal is probably a combination of lots of things; fans of JSC, fans of Disney, fans of T&A, fans of pretty things, etc. There's lots going on with these things.

If you're a fan of JSC art specifically, these absolutely nail his art in sculpture form, which is remarkable when you consider how hard that is to do. The Danger Girl PF and the JSC Spidey line are all well done, but these are a step above as far as recreating the art.

I actually can't think of any other statues that nailed any other comic art this well, actually. That alone is a reason to buy them.

JSC is obviously inspired by the Disney interpretations though, so his point, whatever it may be, still stands.

Personally I don't like these for their Disney references, despite being a Disney nut, I like them because I like JSC's art and fairytales. I actually prefer the store exclusive Little Mermaid because it has less Disney reference.

I guess it depends on ones definition of "sexualize"... It's not like Tinkerbell is wearing a thong or topless.... Even though Ariel might be topless with just sea shells covering her assets, it does make more sense then a mermaid wearing actual clothing underwater.

JSC might of taken them from a G Rating to a PG Rating...

If you follow some of the WDCC FB groups you'd see there is another sub-culture of Disney statue collectors where the Disney characters are "accurate".

JSC, in addition to others, have sexualized Marvel and DC characters.

04-17-2018, 10:24 PM
Look not to sound ... well it's going to sound that way anyways so here goes..

Disney's ladies have always been meant to be extremely beautiful and well... attractive.

Part of why so many girls (I'm talking young adults here) like cosplaying as them.
Now for sure JSC and others have taken it further but especially for Disney's past and intended audience Disney hasn't made them plain.

Disney's Tinkerbell isn't exactly modest...

Tinkerbell came out a lot better than I was expecting her to so that is a pleasant surprise.

I didn't watch Sideshow Live but have read that there are 3 more "Fairytale Fantasies" being worked on. Did they mention if that includes the "Alice" that we already knew about or are there 3 in addition to the originally announced 3 (Little Mermaid, Tinkerbell, Alice). Also, have they mentioned any variants such as what they had done with the mermaid?

Igo said there are 3 more characters in the works ...in addition to the original 3 (Ariel, Tink and Alice). So there will be a total of 6 statues for now.

Sounds like they will announce 3 JSC characters at a time. FYI, they said there's no guarantees, so things can change. But right now that's how it will be.

Also, a few pages back someone was talking about JSC just sexualizing disney princesses. In his defense, he didn't have to change much. They've always been kind of sexualized. I remember seeing The Little Mermaid when I was around 6 or 7 and thinking she was sexy back then(maybe not in that exact term). She literally wears nothing but 2 shells. lmao

That was me. I stick by it. I'm not saying that they weren't originally drawn in a way that was supposed to convey beauty. I'm merely stating that JSC turned the general beauty into a more sexualized beauty. I have no problem with it as I own quite a few ARH statues and have paintings with nudity in my house. I'm in no way a prude about it. My post a couple pages back was merely stating "sex sells" which I wholeheartedly believe.

I think Sideshow did a great job, but I see what you mean. I think it's their size. I did some photo altering and the results look a bit closer to JSC's style:

Yea, her eyes are a tad bigger. Good catch.

But since that's part of the sculpt, the only way to fix it now is to make the iris of her eye bigger. That'll give her eye a better balance between the sclera and iris ...in effect reducing that "bug eye" look.

Yup ...see how the iris touches both top and bottom of her eye. That's how her eyes should be.

I actually like the way her eyes are on the statue because it reminds me of Kylie Minogue playing that sexy green fairy in Moulin Rouge.

Not that I'd be ordering this one way or another because none of these would really have a place in my house. But it's fun to see what they have lined up nonetheless.

dechirico7

The statue eyes are fine. The are still reflective of Campbell's style. Just because the iris doesn't touch both the waterline and top lid doesn't mean anything. I seriously think people have to scrape for things to complain about.

Also, remember, J Scott Campbell is "updating" this art to his current style. I think she matches the art on the plaque that Sideshow is including with this piece. Especially the main figure in this art. The main difference I notice is that the art has heavy eyeliner. I am fine with Sideshow keeping her makeup more natural.

I am glad they have 6 pieces planned. I am sure those will all depend on sales.
Hopefully the sales are strong. I sure loved the Fairytale Fantasy art.
I don't have room for premium formats anymore. I am really glad they made these 1/5. Perfect size for them.

Believe what you will, D ...but look at the pic Graven just posted. The pic on the right ...where Graven made the iris bigger ...looks a lot better. The "bug eye" effect is gone ...and her eyes look more natural.

If you think I'm scraping for things to complain about ...then you might want to think again. The artwork on the plague clearly shows the iris touching top and bottom of her eyes. The statue shows her iris touching only the top of her eyes. The iris and sclera are not balanced ...hence the "bug eye" effect on the statue.

Looking at Tinkerbell, her base looks complete with it's gold edge. Little Mermaid, while i prefer the statue, the base with it's black edge, looks unfinished. Alice could be the highlight of the line, if the statue turns out close to the concept art :)

https://scontent.fbhx2-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/31091835_586042978422016_4141089687103767731_n.jpg?_nc_cat=0&oh=5ab96a1205ff1242e834d95cf587cca8&oe=5B9B516D

I haven't jumped into this line and I'm not yet sure if I will. But I'm considering it. I think Mermaid and Tink look great!

The only "variant" I could think of is with her hair -- one would have this long pixie bob. the other would have her classic cartoon bun.

Thank God, we don't need variants. We need the line to be a success so they do more characters. We need them to use their time to work on new characters rather than wasting time trying to come up with variant ideas.

I'm personally not a fan of Tink having a Collector edition. I think it should just be the one edition with the metal art print.

The Little Mermaid variant was good because it provided an option further separated from Disney's Ariel. I'll admit Tinker Bell is a lot trickier to think of other colours for but not impossible. There's also the drawback of having the name Tinker Bell and not simply being The Little Fairy. It makes it harder to escape the idea of blond hair and green dress.

One viable option would've been to keep the blond hair but give her golden coloured leaves. There's even a glimpse of it on the art print.

Yep. They were asking for questions for Igo, so I asked and luckily they answered mine. He said they were planning on three more after these. But, I hope they keep going beyond that.

I wonder how sales are going for this line. Hopefully enough to warrant at least the 6. I'd be down with them doing 10+.

I'm guessing sales are good for this line. It helps that the statues look great and closely match the JSC artwork.

I'd be cool with 10+ pieces from this line also. No joke.

Not really. These are 1/5.

Compare $300 for these to the DC, Marvel and MOTU 1/5 pieces.
She-Ra $450
Nightmares Joker $535
Silk $425

Even 1/6 scale pieces from other companies come close to the prices on these.
Tweeterhead Harley $294.95
(Most th pieces range from $250-$300)
Kotobukiya's Vision 1/6 is about $270

"Much" better? It's weird cause I'll zoom in on the change and think yep it's definitely better, but then I'll zoom in on the original and think, wow it looks great she's not ugly at all!

So I'm not sure how it affects it in my eyes. I think it's better but then I go back to not seeing anything wrong with the original. It confuses me! :laugh:

I'm with him on my thoughts. Actually just looked at it again and thought to myself: "Self, the biggest change appears to be the direction she's looking. I know the eyes themselves are bigger but that takes a backseat to the direction as that's what my eyes see the most." So her face mostly just looks the same with her eyes looking in another direction.

Then I read his twitter response only to find out he said the same thing...

The eyebrow change, however, IMO does absolutely nothing to change the look of the piece.

A majority of the members? You shouldn't make statistics up. It's discrediting.

Also, the irises on the Sideshow print of Tinker Bell matching the pose do not touch the top and bottom. They match the statue.

Is this really happening in this thread?! Poison Ivy is getting a lot of hate and I understand the problems with that piece. But it looks like people are trying to spill that into this thread and it's boggling my mind.

This is such a freaking nitpick on such astronomical levels. This piece is gorgeous! Where are some people seeing a "bug-eyed look?" Cause I'm seriously trying to see it but I'm struggling.

I'd like to think I have decent eyes and an understanding brain but why is this matter being pushed?

It get it, some of you want larger eyes, but that does VERY little in changing the overall look of her face. The change is minimal at best. :peoples:

Is EVERY statue Sideshow making nowadays worthy of a nitpicking critique cause it just seems like some people want to push every little thing.

I just don't get it. I'm the first to criticize SS on mistakes but it floors me with this piece. So much so that we need to reach out to JSC and let him know our nitpick?!!!

Even with a slight "bug eye effect" we have to remember that she's a pixie fairy. So I think the slightly bigger whites of her eye fits. That's me going with the bug eye consensus.
