I just looked up how long I've had my BobbyC Heath Ledger Joker which has a silicone head, and its been over a decade. Wow!!!
Didnt know I've had it that long.
Anyway, no sign of degradation. Still looks like the same as when I first got it.
People keep making a big deal out of silicone, but most of the artist that use this uses silicone uses the high grade silicone.
Its just like any material, there are cheap ones, and there are some that will last for a long long time.

I believe this was also already been addressed when JND first got started cause people also thought that silicone will only last a couple
of years, so some people are worried about spending that much money for something that will only last a couple of years.
And they have said that they use the high grade silicone, which I believe will last about 40 years.

Oh, I am a big fan of silicone because its really something to see in hand, it takes it to another level as it looks like skin.
If I can have most of my collection made of silicone, I would. lol. I'm not worried about it at all and one of these days,
I hope to own a JND statue. Probably if they make a Batfleck or Cavill Superman.

Hope Im not being too picky, but cape around neck area is not correct. It looks to be rounded off rather than V shaped. Isn’t it supposed to have this V shaped cut?

No idea, but that’s also a picture from TDKR. This is a statue from TDK.

Some people just keep banging on the same drum, unable to let go of their gripes. I'm glad I don't have the free time to visit forums for products I'll never buy. It's like Apple and Nintendo, if something is popular there will always be a crowd of vocal detractors.
 
Looks like BBTS sold out of the crazy high priced duo version. Some crazy folks out there willing to pay the price I guess. I’ll settle with the single.

Or, respectfully, perhaps people are evaluating a potential purchase (like me) and hoping for friendly perspective of others that may shed additional light and assist in decision making process.
 
Honestly, it will probably cost even more on the aftermarket.

I'm not referring to anyone hoping for a friendly perspective to enlighten them. I'm referring to the people that make the same complaints ad nauseam and seemingly can't get over it.

Yeah but they wanted almost $5k and would have been $5,400 after taxes in my case. Holey crud, that's a compact car!
 
Another TDKR combo with JND Selena and Prime1 Bane. This is my imagined display when I decide to pick up JND Selena...

Again Wasn't sure whether JND Bat or Queen bat (and still maybe on the fence) but think after few weeks looking at infos and people's sharing that I like Queen bat for this trio. May change to JND Bat but he wouldn't join until 2023 whereas Queen is out and Selena would join as things sit in a few months.

I have the Queen bat has a better stance but I also got the JND one on pre order lol. As much as I love the queen statue I can’t get past the chin it just doesn’t look that great. I think it’s maybe the paint work that is throwing it off and just looks nothing like bale. On the other hand the stand on the JND is too neutral while the QS version looks ready to kick ass
 
I didn't know Sam Rockwell played Bruce Wayne.

I can see Rockwell too, but it doesn't really take away from the Bale likeness. This is better than the Queen Studios one, especially in terms of realism. The problem, however, is the extremely wrinkled skin and odd choice of half-confused, half serious expression. The likeness is there, but the expression and skin texture need tweaking. If they adjust that, it will look very good.

Bane is the best!
