I'll be looking forward to seeing SS discuss all this at some point.
I guess they will make her upper body hollow. Another option is Sideshow giving her upper body the same treatment (or using the same material) applied to the portrait of the new Power Girl PF as some folks have mentioned it's very light.

The best Zatanna on the market, IMO. A turntable is a must for this piece.

They even look better than the fishnets on the 1/3 JND Harley, at more than 3x the price.
Check out the reflection
The seam probably runs along a groove, like they did with Harley Quinn PF

Gorgeous! Body sculpt and portrait is without a doubt one of the best!

Then add those sexy legs ...



...and the hair. Undeniable!

It has to be a cantilever design. Same method they used with the Rogue MAQ.

Agreed. The EX is not absolutely necessary. But I do like it, too. The EX would be my choice.

Fishnets have a seam down the back, as shown in the pics

I actually like the angle from the other side, the legs look gorgeous. That mirrored base is minimalistic and classy

Even with a substantial rod, wouldn't polystone be more influenced by environmental factors like high temps, etc that could exacerbate the lean?

I don't know. I'm just asking.



No need to make the upper body PVC or the entire statue PVC. If the support rod is almost as thick as her ankle ...and the support rod goes all the way to her chest ....and the support rod is connected to the metal part of the base ....then it should create a strong cantilever design that will support the weight of the polystone.
