It's safe to say that one won't be making it into my Wonder Woman collection.  I'm not sure I could even count how many things I don't like about it!

Hmph! I tend to buy just about anything to do with Wonder Woman, the poor lass being so radically underrepresented in the statue and action figure department -- but that, along with most of the more recent Ame-Comi figures, gets a pass. They derailed, to my taste, a while back, and I am waiting for them to find their way back!

If you scroll down so that you can't see the head of that statue there is nothing about it to hint that it's Wonder Woman.  Oddly, the head alone works for me.  Overall pretty terrible though.

Oh, c'mon! Aren't you guys all BORED by my art collection by now?

No! I'm thinking they ought to open up the John Byrne Museum after you've passed on.

Two friends (both members here, tho I shall not name them) are destined to receive the artwork when I predecease them. Basically, one guy gets most of it, and where I have multiple pieces by the same artists (Ditko, Kubert, Kirby, Neal Adams, etc) they share.

Sounds like I need to try and be JBs 3rd friend just in case or the untalented son he never wanted!  =)

What was wrong with the original Mattel Green Lantern guys?

That Wonder Woman figurine is hideous and desecrates the character worse than anything DC have ever done to her. Did they license this?
