I have the first bishoujo version and I like that one better.

Agreed. This new one is cute enough, but no reason to double up. (Plus, at first glance, I did find myself wondering why the Red Skull's mask was lying on the ground at her feet!)

Heh!  Kaiyodo is releasing another Revoltech version of TOY STORY's Woody...  This time, without the optional "creepy face" of the first release that turned it into an infamous Internet meme.

It would seem that trunks with leggings have somehow come back into style...

These FF statues remind me slightly of the designs JB came up with a while back, except that the ones shown above are lacking in character, dynamism, inter-connectivity, and most of all, fun.

Yeah, I wouldn't mind a smile or two. That JB sketch would make a fun statue.

Raven looks like a dude.  

Not a fan of the FF statues.

I'm inclined to "blame" Darwin Cooke and NEW FRONTIER. Several characters sprouted "legs" on their costumes who had not had them before. Most noticeably Green Lantern.

Yes… I was told my design would be too expensive to manufacture, yet I don't see a whole lot of difference between it and what's been produced.

This must be some new use of the word "dude" with which I was not previously familiar!

I feel she has a very masculine face.

Can't really agree. I think she looks kind of like Carrie-Anne Moss -- tho I have heard some people say she looks masculine.
