Thank you bro I appreciate it. Im on 7 meds a day trying to get back to normal. It puts me to sleep so much.. Though starting to leave the house a little trying to get my confidence and health back. Appreciate the prayers man! Thank you when I come to LA we go out brother!
I have the JND duo of Michelle Pfeiffer/ Catwoman on preorder for next year. Im suppose to get the Christopher Reeve superman duo coming in this fall. I also got a custom cabinet being made for my statues. I love how you have it so organized. My statues are all over the place,lol I will make a video when I have it completed brother!
@@Ticonderous1 Tico my man, where have you been??? 7 years up and rolling and you just now coming into Maiden Mikes World 🌎. I want to hear from you more often.
To me, you can judge a figure based on how accurate it is to a movie (or show), but I think it's also fair to judge a figure based on 1) how it matches your memory of that character or 2) how it makes you feel about a character. That last one is especially powerful, and allows artists a bit of leeway.
Both are beautiful.. the fact that Darkside included a Maskless Pfeiffer head sculpt with a very nice Batman Returns base, 3 Cats a Newspaper and even a pair of Microfiber Gloves for basically the same price for the 1/3 scale is just a better deal. I'M a P1 collector but I did get the Darkside 1/3 Catwoman. Neat vid , Thanks
I really like both so I don't know how you choose between the two. It could be pictures and camera lighting but I do wish the unmasked portrait hair was a slight bit brighter but again that could just be lighting. Both pieces look great in your collection. Are you going to keep both?
Trust me, it's way better when you lighten the hair to the correct shade of blonde and darken the eyebrows to what they should be. I did it to my Darkside piece and she's incredible. The difference it makes is astounding. The contrast between the lighter blonde and the black glossy suit really makes it pop! She looks exactly like Michelle Pfeiffer did in the movie now. When I received my Darkside Catwoman I liked it but wasn't overwhelmed. Once I fixed the few errors they made she looks amazing. I love my Michelle statue now and what's really cool is she's now a one of a kind.
My honest opinion, I think Prime 1 is better. Both have it pros and cons but let's be realistic here. Prime 1 studios Catwoman* Pros: P1 has a far superior paint applications, realistic portrait (with glass eyes, actual glued on eye lashes, realistic eyebrows) Way more attention to detail with different textures. Better base with sewer pipes / light up feature. More realistic looking cat. Cons: Less accurate when it comes to the stitching on costume and body ( P1 gave Pfeiffer and upgrade body wise 😅) And obviously people have issues with the cat standing up straight. Darkside* Pros: a lot more accurate to the actress Michelle Pfeiffer. Better Pose. Comes with a swap out portrait ( Even though that particular version of portrait doesn't make sense, movie wise -IYKYK). Light up feature doesn't require batteries. Cons: The make-up done around the eyes on the portrait is similar to Tweeterhead version. A little too much.. Paint applications suffers the same problem from other statues from Darkside lineup. Outdated ( 3/4 years behind). Base is very bland & unoriginal. The cats are probably the worst thing about the statue. Darkside would of been better off not even making them and just leave the foldable newspaper. The three cats are poorly sculpted and look cartooney. Conclusion: Because Blitzway had a huge part in the making of the statue, the in hand final product of looks better than the prototype. While you unfortunately can't say the same for Darkside... It definitely is a huge upgrade from the terrible facebook factory photos taken from Darkside a year ago. The statue is actually a upgraded version Tweeterhead. The ranking goes as follows 1) JND Studios Catwoman 2) P1/ Blitzway 3) Darkside 4) Tweeterhead P1 is least accurate but makes it up in everywhere else (Style, Detail, Creativity, Paint App etc.) JND is the second most accurate with a interesting base (the cat on the bench) *Other than the wider hips on the statue, it's overall very accurate and safe. No real risks like P1 Darkside is most accurate of them all, but suffers from way too many unnecessary flaws, that if it was made from another company that been around much longer and established, it would of been the best of all the other options. Sorry for the long comment. Just wanted to give a real honest, unbiased take on here.
@@LetsGoBrandon2024_ Brandon where the hell have you been???? I’ve been up for 8 years and you just now dropping in with a response like this. You need to stay regular in here. Nice response.
For me the Darkside is the more accurate one but has a few errors that I fixed. Once I fixed them she went from an ok representation of Michelle Pfeiffer to a spot on astounding one. Blitzways is great but for me falls down on just a few too many things but don't let that get you down if you have the Blitzway one, you can't go wrong with either. I just personally love my Darkside one more after the improvements I made.

Like Prime 1 more but that maskless head portrait from Darkside does look pretty good.

The statue is actually a upgraded version Tweeterhead.
The ranking goes as follows
1) JND Studios Catwoman
2) P1/ Blitzway
3) Darkside
4) Tweeterhead
P1 is least accurate but makes it up in everywhere else (Style, Detail, Creativity, Paint App etc.)
JND is the second most accurate with a interesting base (the cat on the bench)

prime1 / blitzway hands down , darkside is trash , they dont know how to paint realistic skin tone , its like comparing an aeroplane to a balloon
