        yeah, the pics have been posted at least 5 different times. And that extra rooting hole explained, too.

          The crying about this figure ad nauseam from the same people how many different times?

            I honestly don't think she turned out that bad. The costume is actually really good even with the long cape. And with the extra hair that Teemu added, there was less head, more hair, which helped to bring her more into scale.

            Sometimes it is the simple things that fix a figure.

            The hair is just something I have never done before so I'm actually looking forward to learning something new. I'm just hoping I don't have to add hair to Catwoman when she finally hits.

            Next I'll be adding beards to all of my figures. LOL

              Really, what choice does FTC have at this point? All of the '66 heads are gigantic, which is why Batgirl fits in when surrounded by '66 Batman and Robin yet looks ridiculous on her own. But if they were to make the head more in-scale with the body, she wouldn't fit in with the other '66 figures.
              Expectation is the death of discovery.

                I didn't add any hair....I changed out her body (with larger breasts and proportionate hips)

                The body made a HUGE difference here along with painting her belt pouches the proper color

                  this a good point...she DOES fit in with the rest...

                  It is what it is....FTC is not going to change their head methods as some are calling them too big.
                  I have ALL my 66 Batman figures on S-types and the Mattel retro Cheetah body....the heads look good on those bodies (especially when they are all together)

                    Funny thing is, the heads started smaller. Joker and Riddler look weird next to the other villains.

                      That's true, at least as far as Joker goes. I don't think I've seen the Riddler in person.

                        I believe FTC fixed the Riddler's head issue with the EC Exclusive Riddler
