To this day, that’s become the one piece I really need to see in hand. If nothing else, just to determine the truth for myself.
But hey, you never know, maybe there is actually a bad batch out there. I now wouldn’t put it past JND’s quality control to let something like that slip through.

Exactly. If it looks like sh*t in every pic I've ever seen, why would I want (or need) to see it in person?

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

I hesitated on Prime 1 expecting this so the timing is just right for me. I hope they surprise us with two portraits.
Speaking on likenesses, I have Harley, Mera and Latest WW…JND did a great job on all three but Hathaway likeness made me nervous so I passed. I?m sure this one will be an easy day 1 PO.

The photos of the Hathaway piece are terrible....so, it's little wonder that people recoil from it - and as many have said, it's not a cheap item to "suck it and see!"
As an owner of the piece - I'm more than satisfied - she looks great. In my opinion, she does a better job of replicating Anne than the 1/3 Catwoman on Batpod from Queen - another piece I have in hand.
I'm not expecting anyone to take my word for it, and I'm not trying to convince anyone - but, it is tedious for us owners to keep reading regurgitated opinions based on poor images on the web. I've tried to grow a thick skin on the topic - but I can sympathize with the frustration.

Yup. Many people were defending that piece left and right. And then crickets.

Even at prototype stage, the Queen piece always had an embellished look to it. Kind of like when they airbrush celebrities on magazine covers. As such I think it’s the most beautiful of the three, but maybe the most inaccurate because of it.
