Honestly, as I looked at the latest pictures, it didn't even cross my mind to consider if the piece looks like AH or not I was just like, hot damn, that's a great hyper real statue....

I'm not saying the sculpt is not accurate, but, potentially, NOT looking like AH may atually work in this statues favour

No matter what, this may be JND's biggest failure - in terms of sales to collectors. While the art behind the piece (imho) is undeniable, the character, the actress, the controversy - will all ensure this piece is going to be collecting dust on store shelves.

This piece is readily available across the web, and I don't see that changing......

Very true, she looks great but this is meant to be AH

The detail is fantastic as always with JND

Some of the JND pieces have looked iffy to me and not worthy of the reverence some have for the company, but I think this is one of their best offerings.

Looks good..
Not $2600.00 + Shippng + 30% Import good, which is what SpecFiction are asking.

I think Harley Quinn is JND's best piece todate.
From the start, i said only one JND piece for me, as the price point for these pieces really is too much.
If JND were to offer a 100% spot on Black Widow, i could be tempted ..SJ Black Widow tends to test even the most skilled.

Interesting. I've been as critical of this portrait as anyone, since early on. Yet here I can honestly say I fully see Heard.
From this angle, in this particular photo (acknowledging the possible influence of subtle lens distortion and/or filters) I see the actress in the film, 100%.

Will my eventual sample look exactly like this?
\_(ツ)_/
All I know is, pics like this will prompt me to follow through and not cancel, as I was certain I would be doing less than three or four months back.

Yeah, in a way I kind of hate to see it because it means I have another whopper of an invoice to settle up soon.

At that cost very few statues would seem compelling to me, including this one. Being stateside, Spec's price included the shipping and no duties. Still a ridiculous amount of money-but a little more at par for this scale and media (and of course, brand). In fact, it'll look like a hell of a bargain by the time that "platinum" Gadot is ready to ship.
Though Spec's price on that is going to turn out a far better deal than buying direct. Never saw that coming.

I think Harley Quinn is JND's best piece today.

I agree, love my Harley but not enough interest in this one for the price. Mera looks terrific though, congrats to anyone getting her.

If JND ever make a Supergirl (Helen Slater or Melissa Benoist) or a Stargirl (Brec Bassinger) I will spend some more money.
