I'm on the fence with my opinion of Wonder Woman. I like the face hair and body - all that looks great. My only 3 complaints are: #1.) a tank top? really? Mego did that with the 2nd issue 12" Wonder Woman and I can't believe in this day and time - that Mattel, one of the industries best at executing miniature clothing couldn't give her clear straps like the Barbie versions. 2.) the "W" logo isn't Mego era. It should definitely be the eagle. 3.) why does she have flat boots? the 70's or 80's version (as they've done here) both had high heeled boots. The fabric and colors of the costume look good though. Even as is, I'll certainly add it to my collection since all of these have looked waaay better in person than the prototypes, so I have faith she'll be improved and hopefully corrected. Now, bring on the Cheetah!!

I would have rather had the eagle but this outfit would have been my second choice. I'm soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo glad no skin outfit. Thank you Mattel for that. I do wish the top wasn't a tank top though. Clear straps would be much better. However I'll take this way over skinned arms. Wonder Woman gets an solid B+ IMO. Now let me see Flash,Captain Cold and Cheetah.

I think it will be a really big sell tank top or not. I think the tank top look give it a bit of a "retro" feel.It's all good!Comment

I'm a little worried about the head size; that tiara appears to be hiding a lot of forehead. But beyond that - can't wait to buy one!Comment

I feel like I'm back in the 70's with these, all the live-action superhero movies, animated films, and now, finally, the release of the Bionic Woman and the Six Million Dollar Man on dvd in October and November respectively. Now back to Wonder Woman....
I'm ecstatic to see they didn't go with the body suit. Not so sure about the tank top. She looks more like Wondergirl with that but I'm still going to get her regardless. I can always cut it and hem the top.Comment

Wow a lot better than I anticipated. Very cool . Whats odd is its by itself with no villian , and no sign of the rest of wave 3 yet. Will this be a Matty exclusive by chance ?In The " Real World " Vampires Do Not Sparkle. They Burn In the Sun !

I like the face sculpt, much better than Mego, (both versions). I think the tank top is an interesting approach, it beats the heck outta the flesh tone one-piece suit!

I think she looks good, I'd also prefer the eagle to the WW. It does remind me some of Debra Wingers "Wonder girl" costume from the WW series.
I'll be picking up a couple of them.Comment

I think she looks pretty good as well. I also would have liked the eagle better.
If she looks like this and or even better I will definitely be picking up a "few" of these for sure.Enjoy what you like, and let others enjoy what they like. (C) Azrak 2009
