Yellowbeast, Congrats on the acquisition! Hope you don't mind me re-orientating it.
Is that a special kind of resin or silicone? It looks a little sweaty like silicone can, but I don't think I've ever seen sculpted hair on that material before.
This JND is dropping at a bad crunch time for me. Not only are nearly all the pre-orders from the last several years suddenly all showing up at once (all with their invoices), but I'm also suddenly getting hammered with home repairs I never saw coming. I've already had to cancel a bunch of Hot Toy figs I was looking forward to, and it'll be tight trying to cover the two JNDs and one Queen piece I still want.
Another $500 for a pre-order deposit now is a stretch that'll be very difficult to reconcile.
To make that leap, it's not enough that it look like Reeve. For me, I want it to look like a younger, leaner Reeve rather than the older, more bulked up Reeve of parts of II, or III and beyond.
Ironically, That younger look I'm talking about can be seen in most (but not all) of the Fortress footage in I & II. However I doubt any one of the artists at JND are that obsessive about the property (like AK would be) to realize there was much of a difference there.
That younger look is mostly hairstyle but there is also some more leanness to the face. The older Reeve is probably the more prevalent look from the reference they were likely culling for this, so I might be able to let this pass by without much regret after all. If it ends up looking anything like those middle two photos, I'm screwed
