Need to see more pics.
Perez did draw her as voluptuous, but the volume of her hair, in relation to her body, was quite large too. Not just long, but high and especially wide.
From this angle it looks like they could stand to be bulked up a lot more.
Icon Heroes really nailed the Perez style, but the damn thing just isn't that big and the base is as basic as it gets.
Paint apps on the production pieces might be weak too.

I was thinking her hair may need to be tweaked here and there (bigger and wider), but yes, it is at an odd angle in that photo.

Apparently Tweeterhead (and XM) don't know the meaning of "quit" when it comes to honoring true comic design.I agree! I love what I'm seeing from Tweeterhead... this line is going to break me! At least with Bowen, I had to choose between busts or statues... with TH, it's statues all the way... but these classic takes on DC's great roster have been a long time coming.
Anyone that's been collecting DC statuary over the years KNOWS that they've never made it very deep into a line before they bailed on it... with TH, we've already seen Donna Troy (in her classic costume - which isn't always a given), Mxyzptlk, Martian Manhunter, and Steppenwolf alongside the usual suspects. I believe Chad when he says they're going to build these teams... I'll be gleefully watching and looking for that second job to support my habit. :)
Even though I intended to keep my collecting focus, I've already ordered pieces I didn't plan to before seeing them. I think that problem is going to continue.

By design you mean costume, yes?
It's an 80's style Starfire alright, but I don't see it channeling Perez at all.
Perez drew her face with very soft contours and a rounder shape. Larger, slightly out of proportion eyes, very little in the way of a defined bridge and a look that is commonly referred to as "baby fat".
In terms of the hair he specifically drew big round pillowy curls, not these wavy layered lengths.
It's a pretty statue, but compared to Perez, it's more like a fill in artist who is interpreting it in his own way.
It makes me wonder if JLG-L was even involved with the design because in his follow up run even he hewed to the specifics I noted in Perez's original design with the exception of maybe a little less round, baby fat look to the face.
Can't say this wasn't what I expected tho.

I'm such a pain in the ass no one would hire me for very long.
Just to be clear- I think it's a very nice looking statue even in an unpainted state. I can see why people would like it.
Chad sort of sent mixed signals about this one and a couple others as he stated all along with this line that no statue was going to be representative of any particular artist, but more of a general synthesis.
But then in regards to this one and another titan IIRC, that it would be a "Perez" version.
That's why I'm not very surprised (if still a little disappointed) that is looks the way it does.

Yeah, I do think it's very nice for what it is, but your previous post made me realize why the statue didn't remind me immediately of that New Teen Titans cover. Just the eyes and hair alone are different interps.

It's an 80's style Starfire alright, but I don't see it channeling Perez at all. I'm talking specifically about the hair, which was a bit of a talking point in the thread with the Facebook poll.
Some bemoaned the "big hair" on the classic version and that the look wouldn't translate to 3D. I'd say this statue made some compromises between the source art and the sculpt but I've got no problem with it at all. The hair was probably toned down a bit for multiple reasons.
The Titans don't have to look just like they sprung off Perez' drawing board to be satisfying to me personally... anymore than my X-Men HAVE to look like Byrne drawings... this statue is totally faithful to her original look and I dig how the hair and flame trail were done. It looks just like Kori to me.

Probably not. Beast Boy is green, probably didn't want another character with green or "confusing" anyone that she might be a Green Lantern. TV people like to think the audience is stupid.
Despite that I'm excited to see the show. Hawk and Dove live action!!

I found that person's comments rather odd as well. Catwoman has been a sensual character for a long time. TH's Catwoman statue exudes confidence and doesn't look like she's playing the sex angle to get anyone's attention.
But yeah, a couple of pages in the Catwoman thread were consumed by whether or not the statue was "appropriate" for a household with kids.

I dislike overly sexualized and cheesecake statues (esp for DC/Marvel characters). Since this is my favorite catwoman statue I have ever seen and is probably going to be my first to own, I definitely think TH doesn't make overly sexualized/cheesecake statues. IMO cheesecake/sexualization has more to do with the nuance of the statue and not on how how much it is revealing skin. I mean TH Catwoman statue shows a lot of skin but she looks classy as hell!

^ Hey, thanks for that!
That's the Kory I grew up in love with. That guileless, sunny disposition is such an key aspect of her character.
Not that she can't be depicted in other moods, etc. But that's far more iconic imagery to me (no pun intended).
It's just a shame that it's only a piddly 1/9 scale, and even in it's big SDCC debut you can see sloppy paint apps on the prototype. :rolleyes2
The TH looks like a beautiful statue. No question about that.
It's just that Perez set the template for the character and that design was the reference other artists adhered to throughout that decade. There was no "my interpretation" to it. There were key aspects like the hair, and the large saucer eyes, which were not deviated from no matter who was illustrating her.
I've got Aves, an airbrush, paint and sculpting tools.
If TH doesn't modify the hair, I'll probably attempt it myself.

I can see where pdenham is coming from with his comments on the statue but I do think it is a fantastic representation of the character.
Maybe they did try to make the face and head a little more Perez like but it might not have translated well into statue form. Even though I am not purchasing this one, I am glad to see it done and I do think that the painted version will be incredible.

Just do both versions eventually and everyone will be happy. I'm sure both would sell. However, I do think the Perez version should be the first one released. She fits in with the 80's vibe of this line and we already have multiple fishnet Zatanna statues.

I agree. They can do both if they want. BUT if they are going with the Perez era for this portion of the line, it only seems appropriate. And I must say the colors do pop.

Oh how I wish Tweeterhead could get their hands on 1:6 Marvel and just give me X-Men. I would even be tempted to buy statues of male characters. I bet I would even get a Disco Dazzler, Betsy (Psylocke) in her original costume, Goblin Queen (with underboob), a proper Hellfire Emma, Marvel Girl, Storm (in all suits)....

That came out in the late 80s and it just featured solo tales of the teen titans or rather the new teen titans whenever they were DC‘s best-selling title
There were some very good stories in that book but there are also some that were just filler or not really that good. I don’t think the series has ever been reprinted but I think there might of been some individual issues reprinted in various collections but don’t quote me on that
It is possible by searching through dollar bins at your local comic book store you might be able to find some issues depending on how old their dollar bins are. I really don’t think that the back issues of that go for a whole lot either

I agree. They can do both if they want. BUT if they are going with the Perez era for this portion of the line, it only seems appropriate. And I must say the colors do pop.
As it was said, fishnet Z is all over.

I got to see the Starfire prototype a few weekends ago at DragonCon, and had a really nice talk with Jason Wires, whose company produced the proto... This piece is going to be amazing, but according to Jason the statue approval is stuck in administrative hell at the moment, and has been for a while now. Hopefully it will get the green light soon, because I can't wait to have this in my collection...

What causes a piece to be stuck in administrative hell? What does that mean?
Since the statue is of a DC property, it has to be approved by the licensing department at DC (or whatever group does that at Warner Brothers). Apparently it's been waiting for approval for about six months, not because DC necessarily doesn't like the piece, but apparently because the approval paperwork is just sitting on someone's desk somewhere - this is according to Jason, who built the prototype. Hence the administrative hell...
I'm hoping that everything gets worked out so Tweeterhead can move ahead with actually making this, because it's going to be amazing if the proto is any indication.
Augen

Das Brutah
09-15-2018, 04:39 PM
Maybe licensing issues with likeness? With the show coming next month maybe they are shifting approvals more skewed towards this? Just a guess and probably a bad one.
Having worked with tons of IP, there many hoops to jump through.

I hope that there are zero changes to this piece. Starfire is perfect. I can’t take another blow like the SS Psylocke where a piece I fell in love with from top to bottom is tweaked.
Luckily, DC is pretty open with the statues. They understand how these characters were drawn for decades in their comics, so the statues should represent that.

I'd still like to see the hair look like Starfire from the 80's and not the modern hybrid it is now.
Apart from the more voluptuous figure compared to some other female characters, That huge lion's mane was easily her most prominent physical attribute and everyone that drew her followed the Perez template for it- which this statue absolutely does not.
It's a nice look figure, but it just doesn't feel like it nails the character for me because of that aspect.

Big, curly, wavy Byrne hair and Perez hair seem to be hard to translate in statue form. It usually looks like a stringy mess. IMO this is one of the best versions of it yet.

It's the one I was strongly considering before seeing this Tweeterhead piece. The pose is stronger and she seems more "realistic" in some way. I also like the way her hair is depicted... lots of life and action while still staying true to the comic version (IMHO).

I don’t think a statue of Starfire can be better than this. I’ve had the Adam Hughes Starfire, which in my opinion was terrible. DC females bust and the Amanda Connor Starfire. The Amanda Connor one is the only one I still have.
I can’t wait to see this thing painted. I do think getting her skin tone the right orange is very important. The Connor one is perfect on that regard.

With the exceptions of the Harleys (although the "bomb riding" version isn't entirely ruled out yet), Aquaman/Mera, Aquaman (solo) and 2nd Wonder Woman, I'm nearly all in. I'll likely pass on Batman/Catwoman (for a female oriented line, it seems too Batman-centric, to me). I've really liked the more recent figures and will be all over the Big Barda statue when released. I especially loved the more recent Jesse Quick-Flash, Starfire and Jessica Cruz. :cool:

Hey, Just an FYI that things are moving along at a great pace. So much stuff coming in before the year is over and then we're just rolling into 2019 with more awesome stuff on the way!
I caught a bad cold last week, so this week hasn't been as update filled as I would have hoped. I will be doing a video before the end of the month to give you an update and news on things to come. I did want to share with you the next Teen Titan to go up for Pre-Order.
Starfire will be available to pre-order before the end of the month and we'll be showing you your first fill look at her next week. Got this pic today from Jason Wires, who helped develop the sculpt, printed and painted it and just had to show you.
Hope you like what you see. I love her so far and when you see her AMAZING hair you're gonna flip.
So far, we will have had Robin, Donna Troy and now Starfire...who do you think should be our next Teen Titan Maquette??
Oh, and if you're thinking about starting the Teen Titans Maquette line, just an FYI that Donna Troy has a very small handful of pieces left to pre-order.

Hey, Just an FYI that things are moving along at a great pace. So much stuff coming in before the year is over and then we're just rolling into 2019 with more awesome stuff on the way!
I caught a bad cold last week, so this week hasn't been as update filled as I would have hoped. I will be doing a video before the end of the month to give you an update and news on things to come. I did want to share with you the next Teen Titan to go up for Pre-Order.
Starfire will be available to pre-order before the end of the month and we'll be showing you your first fill look at her next week. Got this pic today from Jason Wires, who helped develop the sculpt, printed and painted it and just had to show you.
Hope you like what you see. I love her so far and when you see her AMAZING hair you're gonna flip.
So far, we will have had Robin, Donna Troy and now Starfire...who do you think should be our next Teen Titan Maquette??
Oh, and if you're thinking about starting the Teen Titans Maquette line, just an FYI that Donna Troy has a very small handful of pieces left to pre-order.
Stunning paint to match that flawless sculpt. I cannot wait to see her in full glory and then pre order as fast as possible.

That’s why I KNOW I will NEED the EXs for Ivy, Zatanna, and Hawgirl. I’m serious fans of those ladies :)
So unless SS shows their Catwoman PF without goggles. Or a Storm PF - I’m using my points to support TH
Also the starbolt could be tricky to pull off. Some companies have problems with displaying “powers”.

Unlike other companies who seem to do a bait and switch with their pre release pics and the actual in hand statues. Tweeterhead statues have so far always looked exactly like the pre release pictures.

From what I understand there is not an ex. Chad had mentioned that not all statues will have exclusives since he didn't want to put up an ex just because. She will come with the $15 coupon I guess.

Everything about it looks great! I haven't see an approach like that with the paintup of her eyes. It looks fantastic! It stays true to the comic-depicted green eyes but with an added touch of reaslism.
It's hard to take my eyes off that wonderful sculpt... but take a closeup gander at the base! The flourescent green inside the rock/cloud looks cool!
