That's a cute statue. Pity it's Wonder Girl, tho. Not quite what I
intended for the character.

I've never really liked the pseudo-anime faces on the previous Ame-Comi statues, but this one doesn't look half bad...

"Cast in the name of God...ye not guilty!"
That Mega-Deus looks awesome! I'd definitely get one if I could afford it.

Well, it is a figure of her in her Jim Balent era costume, and this is how he drew her:

I don't mind the costume, but the statue.......not good.

I'm sorry to re-hash old issues but how is this statue "cute" and the Sue Storm statue that was so panned such an aberration for being off-model?
There is nothing about this statue that says Wonder-Girl other than the name on the box and the statue itself is nothing short of a stripper. It seems hypocritical to me to be aghast about the Sue and...accepting about this Wonder Girl.

Probably should have quoted my entire post then, shouldn't you?
I'm more concerned, tho, that you apparently cannot see the difference
between the grotesquely proportioned, hip cocking, butt thrusting, utterly
out of character "Invisible Woman" statue and this surprisingly
demure "Wonder Girl" piece.
