That's pretty obvious. Many JND have a certain texturing issue on the silicone which appears to age their characters up. Their supporters don't mind it and that's fine. But keep in mind JND is 1/3 scale and these are life size; where the size of the texturing seems overly large on 1/3 scale, that similar sized texturing on the life size now becomes near perfect.....imo.

Having said that, if they had sold that JND Bale Bruce Wayne piece solo, I may have considered getting it.

Does not look that good in the sideshow video. I think Queen is far superior so far:

In that old video, the hair was horrendously done. It’s almost like Sideshow intentionally made it look as bad as it could. Sort of like that InArt Gandalf video that a YouTuber did.


But as to the likeness, I don’t think anyone really disputes that between prototypes, the Queen is the better of the two. I’ve currently got both on preorder.

Yeah, I was able to resist the Infinity Studio, but the QS is just perfection.

Review from Art Statue collector.

I feel the likeness is about 75 to 80%, my impression is that the initial pics were photoshopped, it is not looking good to me. I hope the QS does not go the same route.

I think the face is more or less still the same, but that out of the box hair is throwing it off even more.

Yes, hair looks a mess and is kind of throwing everything off. I still think this is overall the superior piece.

Since I’m still getting both, if only I could cut and paste the Queen head onto the Infinity bust.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

That's exactly my suggestion to you earlier. It could work since both head-sculpts are removable.

If only they had identical keys, but it would probably take a lot of customising work to make each compatible with each other.
