    WW

    I would not do that. The 1:6 scale Wonder Woman has gotten the worst review of all the 1:6 figures from DC. The DC Direct forum at DC Comics just rakes her over the coals.

    To see pics of her though, go to ExperienceTheWonder.com Wonder Woman 1:6 Scale Deluxe Collector Figure, and decide for yourself. Take caution before throwing away $85 or so.

    Yeah, I received mine (pre-ordered) yesterday; my initial reaction was much the same as the consensus, but after futzing with her a bit, I'm starting to like her more.The main problem with it is the paint application on the face; the eyes seem too small, and the wrong color. Likewise the eyelashes/brows look "off". If I had any painting talent, I might attempt a fix.
    Is it the Wonder Woman we all could have reasonably expected, given the delay in releasing her so they could "get her right" ? No, but at least we have her, I guess. Given George Brewer's comments regarding the future of the 1/6 line at SDCC, it seems possible they may be winding down, so I'm glad we finally got a WW. It will be a shame if the line is discontinued before we get a Hawkman, though.
    If we could get 12 more figures from this line, my picks would be :
    -Hawkman (SA version with GA head to swap out)
    -Hawkgirl
    -GA Green Lantern (Alan Scott)
    -Dr Fate
    -Firestorm
    -Kid Flash (yellow costume, on the teen/Robin body)
    -Speedy
    -Aqualad
    -Wondergirl
    -Captain Marvel Jr
    -Mary Marvel
    -Riddler


    Of course, there are many, many more I'd like to see as well, but these would satisfy me (for now!).

      I had the WonderWoman Pre-Ordered ..., then canceled my order, for Now, due to lack of Fundage...., & After seeing the Pics of Her,.. I really dislike the Head Sculpt.., I'd have to see 1 up close for my Final Judgement. I think the Head looks Nothing Like any Incarnation of WW Ever Drawn, & thus is Lack Luster, because I can not Identify the Likeness . I like being able to do that with figures, particularly in this scale,.. otherwise they remind me of some sorta Generic KnockOff.

      Another thing that really Disapoints me with the WonderWoman is the WW On Her Chest & Her Belt..., Fabric was seriously the wrong way to go with those 2 important pieces of Her Costume..., They Should Been Metal,.. or Plastic, something Harder to give the Outfit More of Her Iconic Look imo.
      ... The Original Knight ..., Often Imitated, However Never Duplicated. The 1st Knight in Customs.

          I was thinking the same thing.

          It looks like a mid priced love doll

            HORRID is being too kind.

            That sculpt is GHASTLY!!!

            I'm glad that I'm not getting that thing. I'd rather get the Barbie version of WW until the new WGSH version comes out.

                  I don't know, Mike. A great figure AND sex on top, seems like a good deal....

                  Seriously. From what I read here, this whole Matty thing doesn't sound very promising. I dislike exclusives, and "special ordering procedures" even more.
                  I like the GA a lot, but not for $50 or something.
                  If he's offered via the Museum, I'm game 100%, otherwise I think I'll pass...

                    I laughed so hard when I read this. You are a master of subtlety in humor.

                    Not a "love doll" or "cheap love doll", but a mid-priced one. It implies that one has checked the prices of love dolls and knows one that looks like this would fall mid-range.

                      I have agree with everyone the exclusive idea bites. There is going to be some of us that are going to lose out on this. I have asick feeling this is going to sell out quickly and some of us are going to be left without. God I hope not. I am not greedy either I only want 1 and if possible a 2nd for my son. We will have to see what happens I guess.
