Very cool. Like the use of the Invisible girl head. I think it gives her a mature look.

Nice job ... the costume looks great (out of package pics) ...
Not complaining, just noticing ...
1. Her hair is a bit red, I think it could be more brownish.
2. She looks a little too old / grown up.Comment

I was surprised to see they way she looked too....love FTC for doing all the retro figures that they are doing, but this one missed the mark. I agree that Invisible Girl's face is not the one to use for Mary it should be a "sweeter" more of an "innocent" face....I've always thought IG's face was always a little scary. Hopefully they will make some changes to the final design. But really do appreciate FTC for all that they are doing to keep the Mego figures alive with their retro lines....love most of them, they are overall doing an outstanding job.Comment

I'm very happy to have another female figure with a more sculpted face! Yes, the hair is more reddish but I'm OK with that. I have that brownish/reddish (greyish) hair myself so I know the pain of being a near ginger. hehehe Now that they have switched to more sculpted faces I'm feeling a lot better towards the Wonder Woman wave coming next year.
I'm not a big Shazam fan, but if I got this one, I'd definitely trade out her shoes (maybe the new Robin shoes) and get her a white cape. The costume itself will probably be smaller on the final figure so I'm not worried about that.

Dorothy and ME belong to other licences/franchises, but I'd like to see new heads with those sculpts.
Dorothy might be a better sculpt for MM, with a sweeter, more innocent face.
ME would have made a better Leela IMO. The one that was made was horrid.JediJaidaComment

one of my favorite quotes about that sculpt:
"Her head sure is big. Helluva jawline on this girl. Probably drinks scotch with the Mego Riddler in old man bars."

Not feeling it. From the red hair and face chosen, to the lightning bolt tip covered by the belt (that has to be fixed, right?) down to the yellow slippers. It does look like a quick custom someone through together.
I hope that when they release her in the Shazam Series they at least do a JLA Captain Marvel fix up on her. But that only solves the boots and cape color issue, which FTC hopefully figures out the yellow border on the cape issue by then. Maybe having her hair styled instead of just wild would help the look of the figure, along with having the dress brought in a bit at the waist.
It's a bit of a letdown after seeing the Harley figure. This head sculpt probably would have worked nicely for Poison Ivy though.Comment
