I hope they make a Lynda Carter figure like this. This particular costume strays so far away from what Wonder Woman looks like to the point where she looks nothing like Wonder Woman.
    I wasn't sure about Gal at first either but I'm fully on board now. As to the costume, while I am a fan of the old Linda Carter costume, it has it's place. I just don't see any way the old satin and stars costume would have translated to the big screen in this day and age. It would have been so out of date and out of place with the modern take it would have been laughable and, at least, for me, taken me out of the moment and the movie. The costume in the movie is very close to what she has worn in recent comics so for me it's a nice blend and touches on her Amazon Warrior back story.

      Gal Gadot made me forget about Lynda Carter...I can't even watch that old show anymore...it's so corny to me now.

      Gadot resembles the modern day comic book WW more as well.

      Nostalgia only goes so far with me.

            And you probably wouldn't leave the house for awhile.

                  It's Sif! Sorry, couldn't resist. It's a lovely figure. Surprisingly, I like the Darwyn Cooke-esque armor.

                  Does WW use her lasso in the film? Couldn't she just tie up Batman and make him have a nervous breakdown?

                      yeah they are 12 inch ,they are kitbashed from mattel stuff ,the batman barbie and 12 inch multiverse wonder woman ,and the hair is a hair piece from hot toys scarlet witch ,it will tide me over for a bit ,cant wait to get the hot toys version
                      glad you enjoyed the flick hector ,i was rooting for you pal lol
                      i enjoyed it enormously,looking forward to seeing it again , lex was a little distracting but though all the "good "guys were on note, for me anyway lol ,not to single her out but hard to believe how good wonder woman came off after all the negativity over her casting ,but to me she had the right amount of everything ,she looks great in the world war one photo too , enjoyed the hell out of her performance ,love to see her cross over with thor in a movie sometime lol ,epic potential "jaws" comparing war wounds scene in that one lol
