    Nice in-scale head sculpt, though the suit is a bit baggy on him. I think he turned out pretty well but most of this figure is probably going to become a custom Steve Rogers.

    I finally got the Wonder Woman series 1 figures. They're nice, although the way they are packed in their clamshells looks like they were hit by a car - bodies mangled, heads turned, etc. Had to straighten them out. Today I see FTC is going to make Wonder Woman '77 figures from the Lynda Carter TV show. That's good news, although I hope the line doesn't go on as long as the Batman '66 line.

      I always keep extras of the zip ties that go through the peg hole at the top of the clamshell, so I can re-seal after I've turned heads forward, straighten bent limbs, smoothed hair or clothes, etc. I was able to get Wonder Woman to this point by doing that...

          There are some holes in the Batman line caused by rights issues and then they padded the line a lot with variants. Would have loved to see one more unique wave and a little more effort put into the henchmen wave. I don't see how WW could go beyond a couple waves, what is there to do? WW, Diana Prince, Diana on Paradise Island, diver WW, Wonder Girl, Trevor, Etta, Hypolita, a few villains that aren't just guys in suits.

            Also WW with cape, equestrian WW, and cyclist WW. If they are doing all three seasons of the show, they can do two versions of Fausta, Paula von Gunther, Marion Mariposa, Formicida, and the Skrill Monster.

            I suppose with the guest stars, it will all hinge on the license. Will we see figures of Wolfman Jack, Martin Mull, John Saxon, and Roddy McDowall? If they don't hit the likenesses of the many female characters more successfully than with Batman '66, many fans will be disappointed.

              Has anyone seen a prototype of the new FTC Lynda Carter Wonder Woman yet? I'm dying to see how this is going to look.

                Any news or update on these from FTC? A WW TV series line — that actually looks like the actors — is my lifetime holy grail.

                  Looks like a good head for a Johnny Storm custom!

                    till you see the side profile and how deformed it is.

                        I was going to say, that head might make a cool Flash Gordon custom, as well...but he's got a bad profile?

                        I got the Wonder Woman (from the same WW wave) head for a custom and she looks odd from the side too, unfortunately. Thankfully, my custom will be wearing a mask...so maybe her face won't look so wonky.

                          yep he does, flat headed. I saw a custom here that used it and it shows. At CTVT's site they make sure not to show a side shot of it.
