Saw in person. It's great.
Hope the price is not astronomical.
What does Weta usually charge for such sized statues?

How does the face look in person? Does weta use clear resin cause that's what it seems to be.

Never had a weta so I have no clue on the quality.

Usually on the high side. Expect $7-800+

Thranduil didn't turn out well. But as someone who has over 30 Weta statue's, I can say that that is an exception really. 9/10 Times the final product from Weta is great.

Ok I'm good with that, I've been skipping a lot of Sideshow stuff lately and this has a lot more going on.
It's got a ton of presence, you're getting the black jaguar too... with whiskers, something that could have been skipped.

I was more than happy with my The Major 1/4 from Ghost in the Shell. I wish Weta would create more from Ghost in the Shell. Here's mine:
