They must produce a Bane with his jacket 1/3.
Then, they have my permission to move on.

Nah, they won't do it. It would never sell, not at the prices they want for their figures.
In the movie, Bane never took off his mask. Sure, we know who is under there, but in character, it never came off. So there's no way for them to exploit the "hyper-realism" that comes with an actor's facial likeness, and pull in those $$$.
Would you pay close to $3000 for a 1/3 masked Bane, when you can pick up the P1 version for under $1500? - I sure as he'll wouldn't.

Though it wouldn't be a priority character for me I could still see them doing a phenomenal Bane, despite much of his appearance being obscured by the mask. He still has some skin showing and a fairly detailed outfit. Maybe the lack of hair and reduced silicon painting would keep the price down. Heck, their Arthur Fleck sold out and that was a fairly bland choice that didn't seem to have much demand.

I think it would be closer to $2.5k, maybe less, but I also wouldn't pay any amount for P1's Bane.... so, yeah, I'd take JND's offering over what's out there, regardless of the price difference.

A Wookie with rooted hair (or indeed King Kong from an earlier comment) would be so epic though haha.
Thanks to Shoo for the reminder about JND saying they were looking for other IP's. However I'm going to conjecture it will still be a while considering the JND release schedule isn't the same volume as say (most) other companies out there.

If you want a Wookie with a full "head of hair" - check out Regal Robot. But, be prepared to dig deep. If you thought JND is expensive, my man, welcome to the big league

A hyper-real Indiana Jones would be very hard to pass up.

Absolutely. I love comic-based movies but it's a shame there aren't many high-quality collectibles being made for classic movie characters.

Yeah that is next level! And I only thought the Infinity Studio busts were out of my range. I don't know if I'll ever go bigger than 1:3 though. Never say never though.
By the way, has JND hinted or teased at Mera being on the table?
