Absolutely stunning and agree that despite the price the statue is a true work of art and it shows the heart of work rendered and I would pay for that price. Congratulations in getting this piece.
Easily the Best Statue of Wonder Woman I ever saw but that price tag is so hefty. I have the JND Superman on order. I never owned one of their pieces and every day I consider cancelling because I'm not sure that price tag is worth it. Thing is, you and X are reviewers that don't sugar coat issues and tell it straight up how it is. If you two are satisfied with JND's Work, I'll give it a chance.
i'm not a fan boy of any company but i give the credit where it's due. there are certain statues from JND that i don't like but their recent products are getting better and you can see it. despite some QC issues that we see now and then, i think it's worth taking a chance if you already have it on pre order.
I was fortunate to order her straight from Jnd Studios for 3500. Ship from Korean to USA. The after Market she is going for 5000 and Up. 4200 if you look at it from a far is reasonable. She is indeed Wonderful!😍
It’s not worth $4200 but maybe $1800 max. For $4200 I would want my Wonder Woman to have a conversation with me. For $12K I’d want it to be life size and talk to me and wash my dishes.
I agree, it’s a great looking piece, maybe the best Gal. I disagree on price, $3200 usd would’ve been fair. I ended up canceling this one. Great unboxing/review as always.
thanks, Phatal. i don't agree with the price tag either but i understand it has to be more expensive than their other line since it's all silicone. i wish you didn't cancel it and you could see for yourself.
Likeness and quality is better than 84. The paint application has improved drastically in 2 years. The paint is also I think more of the 84 classic suit from the movie so that’s why it brighter. People try to compare the two statues but if they made the same exact expression it wouldn’t be fun. IMO they nailed likeness with two different expressions. To me the best ww in any scale is this 1/3
i agree with you there bro. i honestly think the 1984 one looks kinda like a lady boy 😂 so far, everybody who bought and recieve this piece in hand that i know of are satisfied with it.
Yeah if you’re rich this statue not worth that price and the sellers not gonna see that return either all Life-Size statues should be a minimum $1000-$1500, $2000 around that range with 4200 you can buy more then one statue
For me an important issue is longevity. A solid resin statue will hold its shape and unless it has delicate parts that are likely to get broken in a move, it will last for years or decades. Something like this has so many different parts and materials. Will some parts become brittle or discolored over time? Will sunlight or changes in humidity affect it? I'd like to see if it looks this good in ten years time, or twenty. And the hair, while realistic looking, has a lot of individual strands, and I wonder how that will hold up over time. If I was spending thousands of dollars on a display piece, I would want to know that it will last, and will look just as good on the shelf when I get old.
Great looking but I wonder how long before the silicone parts degrade? Maybe the arms will elongate and droop over time. It's going to look like she's melting.
The fine details, skin tone/texture and especially Gal's face are truly outstanding; expensive but for the discerning collector, I reckon very much worth it.
A rubber sword. Unbelievable, considering how important the sword is to the character. Amazon has small metal swords that look like they would work, but that defeats the 4k price tag
I think she looks exactly like Gal. It's a beautiful piece. I do agree the sword being made from rubber is not fitting for the piece . At that price , which is a little expensive, but it's determined by the buyer how much they really want it, the sword should be metal of some sort. The skin tone is so exquisite! It's dead on, looks like a real person. I'm not sure how I would want to display the shield. It completes her look when she is holding it, but it also looks great in It's stand, allowing you to see the full statue and details. Very cool collection you have my friend. My collection is 98% all horror , lol. With the exception of two Cat Woman pieces and The Batman that Laughs.
I got this statue this week! It’s beside Harley Quinn! I’m done for awhile now! The only two I’m waiting for is the 1989 Batman and the Max Factory 1/6 Chun Li! This statue is so beautiful! I didn’t know she was this big which it’s fine! I just can’t find display cases for 1/3 statues! Any suggestions 🤷♂️
Great looking statue. I wouldn’t spend $4200 on it though. For that price tag i’ll def want a 1/2 scale piece with maybe just a silicone face and something overall with a bigger wow factor when u walk in a room with it Hoping Queen eventually shows us their 1/2 Scale WW
for me, it isn't about the scale of it bro. it it's small and looks incredible, i'd take that over most of the big pieces. i think by the time anybody comes out with the half scale ones, i'd already lose interest in it.
How long do those plastics last? Are they subject to discoloration overtime? Nice looking piece doesn’t look exactly like her, close but for the price I would expect more.
I don't really ever trip on pricing too much due to the fact if something is what I perceive to be too high I just won't get it, but it's so subjective when it comes to pricing and Logisitics, materials etc.... if the company and artists who did all the work feels it's worth that price and someone buys it, I guess they were right in the pricing. This video quality and editing is definitely worthy of some cheddar lol ! 💸Great vid, I agree though if it is going to be in that price range, the ES should probably be a little lower. Then it's one of those things in life where there are always going to be things some people can afford and some people can't, Like Audi isn't going to lower their price on the R8 because I want it cheaper lol, that's life.
for sure bro. good point there. i don't want to sound like it's only rich people who can afford it. it's really up to what you really want to collect. if you already spend so much money on statues and you think this is worth it, just sell what you have to get it. in the end, it's not about others opinion that matters.
Speaking as a cartoonist but not a comic book fan,the sculpture is impressive.If you're willing to pay the money and it's what you collect,good on you.Never seen the movie but it looks very detailed...and accurate?..anyway..hope you enjoy it for a long time.
It looks so much like her. Imagine a 1/1 scale model of Gal Gadot, where the clothes are removable, and the anatomically correct figure is completely posable. And washable.
wouldn't they be able to release a seperate sword from different materials... so for example, fully cast + chrome plating or even special edition full metal? if the issue is shipping to some countries, they could work around it was this right give buyers a coupon code for a free extra sword (especially at these prices)
Great review. I think she looks like Gal about 85% As you mentioned the side view looks a lot like her but that front view for some reason it doesn’t! She looks awesome! But for me it’s to pricey. But hey if you like it and you have the space and money to get it, then go ahead! The bottom line is we buy what we like! I still haven’t bought a Prime1Studio statue or Queen Studio statue because of space and price! But someday I will get that space and purchase one. Even if it’s one! I have a question? What’s the care maintenance for silicone statue? Does it last?
I think it will look nice if you put the shield on her back and the sword on her waist in a sheat then set the arms in cross position like she is shielding the bullets.
First video of yours I've ever seen. I had no idea there was collections like this. My wife has already given me the "death" stare, so I guess I have to live through your collection, and keep buying lottery tickets.
Love it and a bit less and be more collectors-friendly price, I know the silicone is more on this, but the rest of the statues pretty much standard JND piece, maybe it is WW, that's why the price is higher
I love this piece! For the price however, JND should have gone all the way to make the sword better. The material they used made it very light and look very weak and it's not even straight.
I will say that mine came out a lot straighter out of the box. I didn't try to bend it and play with it. didn't even know it was this flexible until I saw it now on Art's video. In person it looks fantastic though. I wish the blade was made of metal but I think it would have been to difficult to capture those tiny details with diecast. I think it might have to be laser etched with extreme precision. Also the weight might be an issue but not sure.
The fact that there’s so much technology out now to get things done precisely, they should have implemented it on a statue like this even if it’s made with silicon,as you pay a premium price for not a perfect looking gal, they made her look prettier,its not source material, also I agree if they going to make the skirt stand out then there should have more vibrant red on her, maybe if the blue was darker then the blend would have looked fine.
Yo what up Art. Love this statue, the attention to detail is really good on the armor and skin tone. I agree the side profile looks like Gal Gadot, but from the front it could have been better. As for the price tag, $4200 is a lot, but JND did a great job on it and its definitely the best Gal Gadot statue so i can see why you say its worth it. But for me personally I don't think i would get it for that price, a little too high for a statue like this in my opinion. Great video and review as always my brother. Are you going to the Japan Expo in BKK next month?
thank you bud. i like a lot of their DC characters product but i'm pretty much done now after Superman. let's hope they don't get the Marvel license lol. i didn't even know there is a Japan Expo in bangkok. what type of things will be there?
@@artstatuecollector They have a wide variety of events and exhibits. They have an anime and gaming area, cosplay area, arts and culture area, an area to try different Japanese foods, music artists and shows. I was thinking maybe they might have anime statues since anime is apart of Japanese culture but it doesn't seem like they do. Not 100% sure tho.
Holy hell 😱😱!!!! I hope you didnt pay 4200 USD for it. Thats certainly not the retail for it. I got it for 3500 USD a few weeks ago, thats direct form JND, top priority express Fedex shipping. Did someone flip it to you? I think its still worth the price tag though. The best one out there, I have both infinity bust and queen, and the paint app and likeness is just better on JND IMO.
that's the retail here in Thailand with shipping and taxes. i agree on the paint. it looks better than IS but i think the likeness for the life size bust is better.
I paid $4406 for mine and still think it's worth it. that's retail directly from JND + Shipping and huge tax here in Israel. It is what it is.. I would have paid only slightly less if I got it from Specfiction but it was already sold out there and I already had it on order from JND so canceling would have cost me my NRD.
Let me start by saying your video quality is crazy good, looks like I can reach through the screen it's so real! Now to be picky, I've never understood the boots on some of the WW statues. Prime 1 WW vs Hydra is wearing these high heeled boots similar to this JND piece, to me it's a take away from what the statue is showing as a whole, if that makes sense? This is hyper real with battle damaged weapons and suit, and foot wear that is so unrealistic. For me, it's one of those features that doesn't make sense when so much of this piece and WW vs Hydra are supposed to be showing a battle ready warrior. I know it's probably movie accurate and I'm being petty to most but it's the one thing that doesn't fit. Aside from that, its an amazing piece that is setting the bar so much higher, but it's nothing I'd ever pay 4k for. Love the review!
much appreciated bro! ❤haha you are one picky dude but yeah, i don't think the movies are made to make sense. most of these statues aren't really worth the price tag but since this is the first we ever saw a statue that is full of silicone and well made at the same time, it's worth it for me. let's see what QS will be coming out with this year!
@@artstatuecollector Silicon is hard to capture on film and the flaws are not as noticeable in hand. The camera exacerbates these flaws, like making her teeth look more pronounced than they really are.
I'd prefer a used motorcycle.... But that's just me. Had to edit because the more I see your collection, I have to admit that if money wasn't an obstacle I'd love to have a collection like that. Good for you man ❤
I have the WW84. I think likeness is slightly better than this new one although the new one is great with the traditional costume but not worth the price.
It's amazing likness is great but 4200 is very high for me . I live in Canada by the time you do exchange shipping duty and taxes I will pay over 7000$ Cnd now is it worth it?
I couldn’t afford her, but I would say the price is worth it. She looks alive, and the size, this isn’t a little statue. I don’t see the pink, it looks red from the video. I agree the sword could have been made with real metal. You can definitely find more lower priced statues, but they will not look as good as this. The silicone skin and realistic hair. WOW Thank you 😮👍🏽👏🏽
wow, 1000 pcs isn't really too limited though. For that price I would have expected more exclusivity. That's more than a lot of the common sideshow Premium Format runs which are typically 750. Looks amazing, but for that price it's a definitely no. I also agree with you that the red color needs to pop more. It's not eye catching enough. I'd be worried about how the silicon will hold up over time. I own a lot of TBLeague stuff and I haven't had any problems, but a lot of people have, but that's only $100-$200. I would have spent the money on like 3-4 1/4 statues personally. I just think at that edition size, you won't be making any money on this statue any time soon if you intend to resell in the future. Also, seeing all your statues in a glass room with all that sun exposure makes me very uneasy lol
I absolutely don't care what the masses say about DC, Snyder, WW, Gal Gadot and superhero movies but Snyder's conception of Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman will always be, in my opinion, one of the most compellingly convincing. Not perfect, but so beautiful. If only Snyder got to direct both WW movies instead.
Brand new to your channel. You put a new shine on the "Go Big or Go Home" saying. 🙂 You have a new subscriber. For the figure, like most, $4200 is too rich for me, but it is a great looking piece. But when the component pieces are not what one would expect (rubber sword, etc.) and there are 1000 made, then even if I had such funds, I probably would not consider it. I'd pay that kind of money to have lunch with Gal herself, but not for a statue that misses on too many things. Fantastic presentation. I'm off to discover all your other videos. Be well and stay strong.
much appreciated! for sure it's not for everyone and even for myself. i don't think i'll be purchasing many more of their statues b/c of the price and space.
I like the colors as they are, toned down so they look more realistic and less toyish. Awesome figure, I can't think of a more beautiful woman in the history of cinema than Gal. The price seems reasonable when you consider the quality.
Agree about the not-great red color on the costume. Doesn't pop enough. However, the likeness is really good. My big issue with this and any of these large silicone statues and busts is the HAIR. Is their any care and cleaning instructions because over time airborne dust, pollen, bacteria, and micro particles are going to adhere to the hair and at some point in the future it will be noticeable. Similarly.. cleaning such off the silicone. Maybe some don't care, but if I am dropping that much money on a figure withe non-molded hair... I really want to know how to maintain it from the inevitable dust that will find its way onto it.... even if you cant see it.
This industry is based on the fact that manufacturers were selling to a select audience which is only so large. The industry began with a couple hundred dollar pieces and in recent years has soared to a few thousand depending on the piece. I think we are seeing the last years of statue collecting unless they rein in runaway prices. I've been collecting by the way for over 35 years.
I think it's by law that Toy companies need to make the swords a rubbery material due to safety. I have a deluxe Angela figure and her sword is a rubbery material.
I think when the price is this high, it also comes down to why one is in the hobby. For most people, like myself, the hobby is just something one does to take a break from daily life and enjoy. So the question ultimately becomes whether I absolutely need to spend $4200 and whether the enjoyment is proportionate. In that regard, I feel that there is a lot of room to doubt the choice of spending that much money. With a lesser amount, one can get multiple good enough statues that provide the same level of enjoyment. So at a fundamental level, something like this feels like a bad purchase. Due to the nature of the hobby, that extra level of workmanship to merit the $4200 price tag does not offer a proportionately extra level of enjoyment that one couldn't get by multiple purchases of less expensive statues.
Thanks for posting this video, great statue, well proportioned and sculpted. I agree that the sword could have been made of a metal instead of hard rubber. As for the pricing, given that her flesh is made of silicon, the price point would be justified.
Back in the 1950s when I was a kid and I could get three used comic books for a silver dime I loved Wonder Woman and Blackhawk, my two favorite characters. Now in my late 70s, I still dream about being on the front porch of the house during the hot summers with my two friends reading our stack of comic books and sucking on a popsicle!
Your bank balance holds the key 😊. Personally, I'd opt to invest $4200 in something more practical or enjoyable for me, like a gaming PC, a 100-inch OLED TV, or even a motorcycle.
Great video, likeness is a bit off and somewhat different to what JND showed off. I can’t remember their version having the front teeth showing as much as the one in your presentation.
The skin texture on silicone really makes the statue stand out. The imperfection in skin looks realistic. Well done...
Absolutely stunning and agree that despite the price the statue is a true work of art and it shows the heart of work rendered and I would pay for that price. Congratulations in getting this piece.
truly is and i hardly ever say it's worth it
You could buy a real woman for that much money impressing her on a few dates and gifts!
He got a beautiful collection congratulations god bless 😊
Easily the Best Statue of Wonder Woman I ever saw but that price tag is so hefty.
I have the JND Superman on order. I never owned one of their pieces and every day I consider cancelling because I'm not sure that price tag is worth it.

So I’m curious as to why people keep calling this a “statue” when it is in fact a doll… a nice doll but a doll none the less.
Does it come with holes?
So far, this is the best-looking Wonder Woman for me. Everything about her, including the suit, is very realistic. 👌
It looks exactly like her. Beautiful and amazing, just as the actress and character.
nah. Its only 85%. cheaper figures can achieve this amount of likeness
I was fortunate to order her straight from Jnd Studios for 3500. Ship from Korean to USA. The after Market she is going for 5000 and Up. 4200 if you look at it from a far is reasonable. She is indeed Wonderful!😍
thats good man. 4200 is retail plus shipping and taxes for me from distributor.
@goodbyesafavor You're absolutely right! I must be crazy cuz I just sold her for 5000!🤣
I think its the best Gal WW so far a bit on the pricey side but once of the best. great review
thank you so much and i agree with you
you earned the money to buy it, enjoy it regardless of what others might say. their opinions shouldn't matter.
He doesn't care your opinion, but his youtube ch. need likes and comments.
I love it! But I have to say it's definitely not worth that price tag. This price is far too different from other JND statues.
it is different b/c it's all silicone but yes, the price is steep
Agreed.
It’s not worth $4200 but maybe $1800 max. For $4200 I would want my Wonder Woman to have a conversation with me. For $12K I’d want it to be life size and talk to me and wash my dishes.
What do I do with a silicon statue like her in my room? Does it come alive for further use?
Can you remove the armor/ costume to clean underneath?
Best video quality in the youtube game bro !!!! and cant wait for this statue ! !
thanks bro. let me know what you think when you get yours ❤
I have it and love it. I am a little disappointed in some of the materials they used (I.e., the sword) but I understand why they did it.
yeah, the sword is a big let down for sure.
Love it but the only way I'll pay 4200$ is if it can cook and clean too 😂😜
Impressive piece of art! Love it!
I agree, it’s a great looking piece, maybe the best Gal. I disagree on price, $3200 usd would’ve been fair. I ended up canceling this one. Great unboxing/review as always.

Hey Art, She's Amazing 90% to the Real person!
Worth the money, if I was a Huge Wonder woman fan, Yes !!
i'm not even a huge WW fan and it's worth it!
Great vid as usual. I think the retail is justified, everything is high now so it isn't that far off. Can't wait to get mine!
yeah, right now a 1/3 scale statue can easily cost $2000+ but i get it. it's hard to justify the price where you can buy a full life size bust for.
I would love to see Gal Gadot's reaction seeing this sculpture in person. They basically made a mini clone of her as WW.
The fact that it is sold out EVERYWHERE answers your question.
Yeah if you’re rich this statue not worth that price and the sellers not gonna see that return either all Life-Size statues should be a minimum $1000-$1500, $2000 around that range with 4200 you can buy more then one statue

World is full Of fools and their money.
If it’s made in limited quantity, it’ll be sold out bruh. We have to see how many were made.

10/10 i love mine. Cant wait for more JND women to be announced.
glad to hear. haven't heard anyone who doesn't love it yet!
It feels like having gal gadot in your room 😍
Why would you want that no talent bimbo in you're room , ooooh i get it ; to throw it out the window 😁😁👍👍👍👍
So its silicone, can you move the hand or else that make a.customize pose?
I missed out on it sadly /:
When I saw the thumbnail, I thought it was a shot of Gal Gadot. That’s incredible.
I got mine last week. I found that the skin colour of the arms is darker than the skin colour of the face and chest. Is yours the same?
What materials are these made of exactly ?
damn this statue is just perfect. I hope I can afford it.
Why didn’t they use titanium for the sword and shield and the metallic parts of her outfit. That would have made it even more special.
For me an important issue is longevity. A solid resin statue will hold its shape and unless it has delicate parts that are likely to get broken in a move, it will last for years or decades. Something like this has so many different parts and materials. Will some parts become brittle or discolored over time? Will sunlight or changes in humidity affect it?

Gal Gadot is the perfect Wonder Woman and this statue is spot on.
Between jnd and is.bust, which one is more like gal?
i'd say the IS bust looks more like Gal
Speaking as a cartoonist but not a comic book fan,the sculpture is impressive.If you're willing to pay the money and it's what you collect,good on you.Never seen the movie but it looks very detailed...and accurate?..anyway..hope you enjoy it for a long time.
It looks so much like her. Imagine a 1/1 scale model of Gal Gadot, where the clothes are removable, and the anatomically correct figure is completely posable. And washable.
I'm sure Real Doll could make something very close, you can buy it a Wonder Woman outfit and she'd be able to do all lot more poseable things.
Has to be washable for sure 😂😂😂
wouldn't they be able to release a seperate sword from different materials...
so for example, fully cast + chrome plating or even special edition full metal?
if the issue is shipping to some countries, they could work around it was this right
give buyers a coupon code for a free extra sword (especially at these prices)
Wait, the sword is RUBBER??? 🤣🤣 $4+ for a rubber sword 🤦🤦🤦 Thanks for the honest review, there's a severe lack for jnd pieces for some reason
yeah, it's rubber 😅they could have gone with any other light weight material...
Stainless Steel is fair about this sword
Can we get one of those that are 178cm tall? (gals real height)

Short & quick answer absolutely and unequivocally no, it is not worth it. However still a great video man & that’s all it matters 👍
it's all good. a lot of people will disagree with me here and i get why. it's all up to one's satisfaction. thanks!
It's a work of art, so is it worth it ! That would be subjective, I think so beautiful piece.
Love it and a bit less and be more collectors-friendly price, I know the silicone is more on this, but the rest of the statues pretty much standard JND piece, maybe it is WW, that's why the price is higher
would love it to be much less 💸
I love this piece! For the price however, JND should have gone all the way to make the sword better. The material they used made it very light and look very weak and it's not even straight.
exactly. that sword is the only disappointment on this statue.
I will say that mine came out a lot straighter out of the box. I didn't try to bend it and play with it. didn't even know it was this flexible until I saw it now on Art's video.
In person it looks fantastic though.
I wish the blade was made of metal but I think it would have been to difficult to capture those tiny details with diecast. I think it might have to be laser etched with extreme precision. Also the weight might be an issue but not sure.
Congratulations on this one, she looks stunning and as for the likeness it's 50/50 for me.
i feel like the earlier wonderwoman looked more like gal, but the finishes in this one with silicon legs as well looks amazing
Man that is freaking awesome! I want one and a captain America ! Man you have an awesome collection!
The fact that there’s so much technology out now to get things done precisely, they should have implemented it on a statue like this even if it’s made with silicon,as you pay a premium price for not a perfect looking gal, they made her look prettier,its not source material, also I agree if they going to make the skirt stand out then there should have more vibrant red on her, maybe if the blue was darker then the blend would have looked fine.
I think you are nitpicking, this statue is superb, I have no issues with her appearance and pose. Superb.
Man, you think the likeness of this is better than the Infinity bust?? Crazy!
Far better indeed.
not better but close. it has a different look to it.
Pretty amazing work here, but also pretty sure that's a young Fran Drescher.
Yo what up Art. Love this statue, the attention to detail is really good on the armor and skin tone. I agree the side profile looks like Gal Gadot, but from the front it could have been better. As for the price tag, $4200 is a lot, but JND did a great job on it and its definitely the best Gal Gadot statue so i can see why you say its worth it. But for me personally I don't think i would get it for that price, a little too high for a statue like this in my opinion. Great video and review as always my brother. Are you going to the Japan Expo in BKK next month?
thank you bud. i like a lot of their DC characters product but i'm pretty much done now after Superman. let's hope they don't get the Marvel license lol.
i didn't even know there is a Japan Expo in bangkok. what type of things will be there?
@@artstatuecollector They have a wide variety of events and exhibits. They have an anime and gaming area, cosplay area, arts and culture area, an area to try different Japanese foods, music artists and shows. I was thinking maybe they might have anime statues since anime is apart of Japanese culture but it doesn't seem like they do. Not 100% sure tho.
Holy hell 😱😱!!!! I hope you didnt pay 4200 USD for it. Thats certainly not the retail for it. I got it for 3500 USD a few weeks ago, thats direct form JND, top priority express Fedex shipping. Did someone flip it to you? I think its still worth the price tag though. The best one out there, I have both infinity bust and queen, and the paint app and likeness is just better on JND IMO.
that's the retail here in Thailand with shipping and taxes. i agree on the paint. it looks better than IS but i think the likeness for the life size bust is better.
I paid $4406 for mine and still think it's worth it. that's retail directly from JND + Shipping and huge tax here in Israel. It is what it is.. I would have paid only slightly less if I got it from Specfiction but it was already sold out there and I already had it on order from JND so canceling would have cost me my NRD.
great video Art, she is amazing and worth it
Jupiters penis
for sure 👍🏻
Are the clothes removable?😋
It looks great, but appears 1/5 size. I'm not a collector so I don't have any experience in telling the size. Though it really seems smaller than 1/3
Let me start by saying your video quality is crazy good, looks like I can reach through the screen it's so real! Now to be picky, I've never understood the boots on some of the WW statues. Prime 1 WW vs Hydra is wearing these high heeled boots similar to this JND piece, to me it's a take away from what the statue is showing as a whole, if that makes sense? This is hyper real with battle damaged weapons and suit, and foot wear that is so unrealistic. For me, it's one of those features that doesn't make sense when so much of this piece and WW vs Hydra are supposed to be showing a battle ready warrior. I know it's probably movie accurate and I'm being petty to most but it's the one thing that doesn't fit. Aside from that, its an amazing piece that is setting the bar so much higher, but it's nothing I'd ever pay 4k for. Love the review!
much appreciated bro! ❤haha you are one picky dude but yeah, i don't think the movies are made to make sense. most of these statues aren't really worth the price tag but since this is the first we ever saw a statue that is full of silicone and well made at the same time, it's worth it for me. let's see what QS will be coming out with this year!
Un vídeo impresionante la figura es una locura muchas felicitaciones amigo 🫶🫶🫶🫶
much appreciated!
Great review Art! Really like the detail in the body and armor, but the likeness in the portrait is only about 70% for me.
it is true that JND pieces look better in person and i don't know why 😅
@@artstatuecollector
Silicon is hard to capture on film and the flaws are not as noticeable in hand. The camera exacerbates these flaws, like making her teeth look more pronounced than they really are.
I'd prefer a used motorcycle.... But that's just me.
Had to edit because the more I see your collection, I have to admit that if money wasn't an obstacle I'd love to have a collection like that. Good for you man ❤
I have the WW84. I think likeness is slightly better than this new one although the new one is great with the traditional costume but not worth the price.
i can't really comment which is better since i haven't seen 84 in person. do you have this one coming? would love to see the comparison 👍🏻
@@artstatuecollector sold my PO to a friend.
It's amazing likness is great but 4200 is very high for me . I live in Canada by the time you do exchange shipping duty and taxes I will pay over 7000$ Cnd now is it worth it?
I couldn’t afford her, but I would say the price is worth it. She looks alive, and the size, this isn’t a little statue. I don’t see the pink, it looks red from the video. I agree the sword could have been made with real metal. You can definitely find more lower priced statues, but they will not look as good as this. The silicone skin and realistic hair. WOW Thank you 😮👍🏽👏🏽
I also feel that
She's beautiful!... the real one is perfect, and the the doll is beautiful.
The Skin blemishes,hair and eyes are brilliant!
wow, 1000 pcs isn't really too limited though. For that price I would have expected more exclusivity. That's more than a lot of the common sideshow Premium Format runs which are typically 750. Looks amazing, but for that price it's a definitely no. I also agree with you that the red color needs to pop more. It's not eye catching enough. I'd be worried about how the silicon will hold up over time. I own a lot of TBLeague stuff and I haven't had any problems, but a lot of people have, but that's only $100-$200. I would have spent the money on like 3-4 1/4 statues personally. I just think at that edition size, you won't be making any money on this statue any time soon if you intend to resell in the future.
Also, seeing all your statues in a glass room with all that sun exposure makes me very uneasy lol
I absolutely don't care what the masses say about DC, Snyder, WW, Gal Gadot and superhero movies but Snyder's conception of Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman will always be, in my opinion, one of the most compellingly convincing. Not perfect, but so beautiful. If only Snyder got to direct both WW movies instead.
Brand new to your channel. You put a new shine on the "Go Big or Go Home" saying. 🙂 You have a new subscriber.
For the figure, like most, $4200 is too rich for me, but it is a great looking piece. But when the component pieces are not what one would expect (rubber sword, etc.) and there are 1000 made, then even if I had such funds, I probably would not consider it. I'd pay that kind of money to have lunch with Gal herself, but not for a statue that misses on too many things.
Fantastic presentation. I'm off to discover all your other videos. Be well and stay strong.
much appreciated! for sure it's not for everyone and even for myself. i don't think i'll be purchasing many more of their statues b/c of the price and space.
I like the colors as they are, toned down so they look more realistic and less toyish. Awesome figure, I can't think of a more beautiful woman in the history of cinema than Gal. The price seems reasonable when you consider the quality.
Will silicone decay over a shorter period of time! This might require more careful environmental control and care.
Agree about the not-great red color on the costume. Doesn't pop enough. However, the likeness is really good. My big issue with this and any of these large silicone statues and busts is the HAIR. Is their any care and cleaning instructions because over time airborne dust, pollen, bacteria, and micro particles are going to adhere to the hair and at some point in the future it will be noticeable. Similarly.. cleaning such off the silicone. Maybe some don't care, but if I am dropping that much money on a figure withe non-molded hair... I really want to know how to maintain it from the inevitable dust that will find its way onto it.... even if you cant see it.
This industry is based on the fact that manufacturers were selling to a select audience which is only so large. The industry began with a couple hundred dollar pieces and in recent years has soared to a few thousand depending on the piece. I think we are seeing the last years of statue collecting unless they rein in runaway prices. I've been collecting by the way for over 35 years.
I think it's by law that Toy companies need to make the swords a rubbery material due to safety. I have a deluxe Angela figure and her sword is a rubbery material.
Wonder Woman 👑

I think when the price is this high, it also comes down to why one is in the hobby. For most people, like myself, the hobby is just something one does to take a break from daily life and enjoy. So the question ultimately becomes whether I absolutely need to spend $4200 and whether the enjoyment is proportionate. In that regard, I feel that there is a lot of room to doubt the choice of spending that much money. With a lesser amount, one can get multiple good enough statues that provide the same level of enjoyment. So at a fundamental level, something like this feels like a bad purchase. Due to the nature of the hobby, that extra level of workmanship to merit the $4200 price tag does not offer a proportionately extra level of enjoyment that one couldn't get by multiple purchases of less expensive statues.
am I the only one that is worried about the amount of natural sunlight that is coming into this display room? you know UV light sun bleaching?
Infinity Studio makes the best likeness of Gal Gadot for her Wonder Woman bust!
Thanks for posting this video, great statue, well proportioned and sculpted. I agree that the sword could have been made of a metal instead of hard rubber. As for the pricing, given that her flesh is made of silicon, the price point would be justified.
Back in the 1950s when I was a kid and I could get three used comic books for a silver dime I loved Wonder Woman and Blackhawk, my two favorite characters. Now in my late 70s, I still dream about being on the front porch of the house during the hot summers with my two friends reading our stack of comic books and sucking on a popsicle!
I think the mouth part is a bit off. The lines from the side
Your bank balance holds the key 😊. Personally, I'd opt to invest $4200 in something more practical or enjoyable for me, like a gaming PC, a 100-inch OLED TV, or even a motorcycle.
wow these statues are on a different level
$50 maybe I’ll think about it .. not worth the money but for collectors idk it’s ur choice
Great video, likeness is a bit off and somewhat different to what JND showed off. I can’t remember their version having the front teeth showing as much as the one in your presentation.
i think it looks better than what they showed in the beginning. the mouth doesn't bother me in person though.
There is website wonder woman sold out.
It's sold out everywhere, only reason l kept my order.
For me the likeness is 6/10 on this one. 84 is 8/10, and Infinity Studio bust is 10/10.
IS bust likeness is 8/10, this one is 9.5/10
i have to disagree with you there.
❤Beautiful, Congratulations!!❤
thanks Jess!
I'm waiting for the life size. 🥰
