It suddenly occurred to me last night that The Reptile might have been a clever way to reuse WOz Witch figures. A sort of AJ compromise. Still miss the dress, though--esp. considering the nice soft-goods on the Topps Hammer figures.

^^ Makes sense. As the FC hands were far too large, I ended up going with reshaped Type-S GITD, and put her in Vanessa Ives clothing as a better stand in. She's really fun and a bit campy, but (agreed!) it would have been awesome to have something more screen accurate. If a better outfit emerges, I'd be inclined to rebuild her.Comment

I thought that all along. The Reptile is nothing but unsold witches with a new head slapped on. I agree, the dress thing is sad. I may remove mine, bleach it, then dye it a dark blue.Comment

I found some perfect fabric on ebay for her dress, but even JoAnn's has some options.WANTED: Dick Grayson SI trousers; gray AJ Mustang horse; vintage RC Batman (Bruce Wayne) head; minty Wolfman tights; mint Black Knight sword; minty Launcelot boots; Lion Rock (pale) Dracula & Mummy heads; Lion Rock Franky squared boots; Wayne Foundation blue furniture; Flash Gordon/Ming (10") unbroken holsters; CHiPs gloved arms; POTA T2 tan body; CTVT/vintage Friar Tuck robes, BBP TZ Burgess Meredith glasses.Comment

I don't understand this settling for the witch dress at all, it's not close to accurate. And ironically, an accurate dress would be less complex, pattern-wise. Even allowing for the witch dress already being patterned for production, they couldn't vary the fabric? Sad. I understand it for a custom compromise, but this is a licensed figure..
