    A Tale of Two Catwomen - Golden & Bronze Age DCD 13" Customs

    Ever since DC Direct released their 1:6 "Classic" Catwoman in purple jumpsuit, I've been wanting to redo her in her classic Golden Age purple dress (which she returned to wearing in the late bronze age). I used the DCD Classic Catwoman figure as the base, replacing her hands, and reworking a pair of Zatanna boots and a Black Canary belt. The rest - costume with cape and necklace - I made (I just realized I didn't take a pic of the DCD factory release next to my custom):








    I have also wanted to do the classic Bronze Age costume that Mego produced. I used a DCD Power Girl as the base, repainted the hair, repainted a pair of Black Canary boots, and used Classic Catwoman hands repainted. The rest of the costume was handmade, including the mask, which has yellow lenses in the eye holes (the tail is posable) :











    And because I had to:

            My thoughts exactly! I never like the way that costume looks, in figure form or in the comics. But I'm digging it here.

            The purple dress is still my favorite Catwoman look, though. And you killed that one too.
