And her owl is also very known in the Bee Bopalula Forest as Owly Sheet.

Why not? I think it’s a waste of resources tbh. Looks like the female steam punk version of Adi. A little weird this is gonna see the light of day.

But who would want this? Seriously. Why would one want this?

I think this reveals a lot about Sideshow's business operations and the industry as a whole.

Sort of gives us an idea what licensing costs comparing this $400 to other licensed statue prices.

Fans of Adi, fans of sexy lady statues, fans of beautiful art, etc. They would want this.

I can't decide if you're joking, trolling or ignorant. I'm not sure what is worse.

Do you believe the world revolves around your wants? That what you decide is a reasonable deployment of resources is absolute? Dude, seriously, get over yourself.

If you don't see the value (art or otherwise) then take a walk to the part of the forum that somehow fits into your worldview, and leave this place to those who appreciate the piece.

Wow this has gotten extreme. Eek. I actually am obsessed with her and I ordered her. Art is in the eye of the beholder. Adi is a great artist and I'm surprised anyone would be so disparaging. But as with anything everyone is entitled to their own opines

Being honest.

If my honest is too much for you please don’t ask me to take a walk. It everyone is going to agree with you and your tastes.

If you like this that’s great. I appreciate art, characters, beautiful women and cool stuff of all shapes and sizes. I can honestly say this porcelain check none of those boxes for me. Which is why I can’t believe it’s being made and as a “reasonable” collector I can’t understand why someone would be inclined to spend $400 hard earned dollars on this.

This piece proves there is truly something for everyone.

It’s not extreme, ca-mon don’t get extreme

I’m happy your happy with it. I’m sorry I’m not trying to ruin anyone’s joy. Are you a huge Adi fan? Most collectors I know have to really be invested in a character to spend $400 on a statue of them.

I am a huge Adi fan and that really wasn't even a factor. It spoke to me on an artistic level. I think she's beautiful.

You are not ruining my joy at all. You're not invested that''s fine.
