Rebirth has me feeling a bit more optimistic about the DC Universe and this is the first DC related toy I've purchased since the start of loathsome New 52.
Target's timed exclusivity over these dolls have run out and they are just starting to show up at TRU and Walmart.
The first thing I noticed is Wonder Woman is really tall. She is almost a head taller than standard Monster High dolls and even taller than the tallest MH dolls, like Nefera. The body is also much more muscular than MH. The DCSHG body also has an addition torso joint, like the 17 inch MH Frightfully Tall dolls, allowing a torso swivel. Unlike Monster High and Ever After High, the hands are molded in a gripping style allowing the dolls to actually hold their accessories. Kind of like GI JOE Kung FU Grip hands. WW is a very solid and sturdy feeling doll.
She has black hair with streaks of cobalt blue, very pretty. The clothes are nice quality and don't really look or feel budget. The accessories are well sculpted and the belt has a little loop to store her included plastic magic lasso. I honestly would have preferred the lasso to have been made out of some type of string. Her belt is a little fiddly trying to get it exactly in place and moves around a bit. Her boots are removable and do have some nice paint detailing.
Overall, I am really impressed.
