So no one has commented yet on how the JND figure is depicted in mid-stride, yet at the same time is almost, literally, butt up against a barrier?
Did she phase through it like Kitty Pryde?

Also, as amazing as the cat looks to be, they are oddly, needlessly subverting it by putting this small black object, behind a larger all black figure.
Wouldn't it have been more appropriate all around to have the balcony be along one of the sides. Maybe even interchangeably owner's choice?
Or even diagonally in a corner?

You're delusional.

Most of the collectors commenting here can buy both! The Blitzway piece was relatively affordable, and considering the JND piece won't likely be delivered until Q4 2025 or Q1 2026 (depending on where you buy if from) - buying the JND piece, for a determined collector, is easy......so where's the grounds for regret? If anything, I imagine it's the other way round. For those that missed the Blitzway piece, and knowing the "next best thing" comes with the dreaded JND TAX - regret is probably an understatement.

She was sitting on the wall and petting her cat, then she stood up and began walking.

Yeah, that wall is way out of proportion.

Given that JND are known for simplistic bases, they probably chose a smaller backdrop, rather than possibly overpowering it with a taller but more accurate railing.

There are several examples of how inaccurate the Prime 1 statue is compared to the other lines. One example is the corset and lace design. You can tell from these images that even Darkside is more accurate than Prime 1. Her beast size in the JND statue is also more in line to the movie and didn?t need to be augmented like Prime 1 has done. And as someone else had previously mentioned, the JND statue is more practical with the physics of the whip. The whip in the Prime 1 statue appears lighter than it would physically be. These aren?t opinions, they are observations.
