I'm not sold on her holding so many weapons. Bats and Supers got plain bases and nothing to really hold. I was kinda hoping WW was gonna match them and just have a powerful pose without any other distractions. If anything, I wish the arm holding the spear was a swap out so she wouldn't take up so much space.

Definite day 1 P.O., but I still have my gripes

I am am not a Wonder Woman fan, and this is something I would buy. (I am not) However, my bewilderment lies in how her enthusiasts will receive this pose (spear).

And the hair is going different direction to Supes and Bats cape!:laugh:

Thinking of getting custom cabinet for these three since they will take up a lot of space. And display them individually.

Not a classic Wonder Woman but a nice sculpt that went with amazon warrior approach.

The belt and the bracelets are my main issue here. They could have left those alone.

SS finally married both designs. The one with her standing regally with the Greek structure debris base, and helmet with the other design of her holding the spear. Some said the base was too busy, but SS pushed forward with it anyhow. And is this a new trend? Digital sculpting? From the start of the video, it showed Diana's face being digitally sculpted.

GedTasker
12-25-2013, 08:09 AM
Apparently.. sometimes they'll start the sculpt in digital, print it out and hand finish in wax.. best of both eh..!! I asked Martin C on facey and he explained the process that him and his studio have started doing.

I must say this really is an absolutely stunning piece though!!!

pdenham
12-25-2013, 08:14 AM
Not really sold on this one yet.
The staff/spear isn't something I associate with the character, though I can accept it as a design element choice. But it would help if it were incorporated in such a way as to make it a more interesting design rather than just being a prop other than a sword.
Another one knee up pose. It wouldn't be a SS piece without the character having one foot up on something, now would it?
The face is OK...but not alluring enough to me to make me rush out and pre-order it- especially when there are going to be metric ton of these made. Looking at the video though, the early digital sculpt did look more attractive to me. Something seems to have got lost in translation...maybe it's the beady eyes. I'll be taking my time picking this one up. If I even do.
Unlike Red Sonja (which I also continue to have niggling issues with), nothing about this piece looks like a must have/can't afford to let slip by, other than the notability of the character itself.
But at $400, I'm not buying anything just because I like the character. The statue itself has to hit my aesthetic sweet spot and this one isn't looking like it will.

Just one other thing- this isn't directed at Sideshow, but DC and their lame sense of costume design/incessant need to corporate brand. That belt is one of the stupidest designs for an action character I've ever seen. Yes, I get the the WW, but for someone who will likely have to bend at the waist often and is going to get thrown around- why on earth would you wear a belt with three sharp rigid vertical points? It would be one thing if it were being represented as softer fabric, but clearly it's meant to portray some kind of hard rigid material....much like here tiara or bracelets. I've always thought that was lame.

sorry but i totally disagree with you. the face looks incredible. reminds me of WW from the DC DVD's which i love. not sure why but the portrait reminds me of Daryl Hannah. wonder if they used her likness as inspiration for the portrait? the over all sculpt looks killah.

the costume design is a very cool unique take from the classic one IMO. but this whole issue people are having with a statue having its foot propped up on something. its the best pose to portray victory or one being triumphant. not to mention the best way to convey movement. the FUP is the new museum pose for the 21st century. lol
i have no issues with SS using the FUP. its how the body works. could they have gone with a different pose? yeah probably. but Bats and Supes are in one. its only right for her to bre in one too.
now it will be a true trinity.. :laugh:

They hit a homerun with this one. Probably one of the best depictions of the character in general. They managed to downplay the sexuality in just the right ways.

sorry but i totally disagree with you.

Call me nuts, but I'm starting to get the feeling we don't share the same tastes at all :itsb: :laugh:

I would love to be excited over a WW statue, but while this looks a bit better overall than the DC Direct PF ( though I admit the costuming looks significantly better here) it doesn't come anywhere close to be as exciting to me as the Hughes Serpent diorama...which is probably the best WW statue I've ever seen by a wide margin. Even the WW figure in the Superman Vs WW dio is more attractive to me than this one.

In short, I think there is easily room for SS to come up with a more impressive WW statue in the future, whether it's an LSF, Maquette , or Dio. So rather than splurge on something I'm only half heartedly attracted to, I think it would be wiser for me to just bide my time and wait for something else to come along.

For everyone that get this though, I hope it comes out exceedingly well in the QC department.

well IMO SS did do better. becasue they too a different approach. that is a nice sculpt. and beautiful. and hey you know what? i agree with you :itsb: that its one of the best WW sculpts out there. and for people like you. its the best one. and i would have had to of agreed with you up until the time SS came out with this. this PF has a sense of realism which that dio doesn't have. the dio is more directed towards the classic comics in its design and looks. which is nothing wrong with that. but this one here is just as beautiful and just as great IMO. i feel its the best to date not due to its sheer size. but its overall design and sculpt plus the beauty of the portrait and the way they applied the sense of realism to her. that right there is what i love about this piece. and why i say this the best WW to date.
its all about preference man. :thumbs2:

Just saw the preview and I am blown away, the face sculpt I feel beautifully captures a certain exotic sexuality but also powerful and strong character. Those eyes are piercing. Thank god she's looking straight ahead and not to the side or to the sky like so many PFs, she's looking straight at you saying hell yeah you know and I know I am bad ass!! The only thing I think could've been changed to make me even happier with this reveal is to not use the leg up and put her legs standing shoulder width apart so we could see her beautiful anatomy better.

There are two women sculpts/statues PFs so far that SSC has produced that I consider above all other...at least as prototypes.

1) Wonder Woman
2) Queen of the Dead

Yeah for me this WW tops QotD because Wonder Woman has references to consider and follow while the Queen of the Dead is totally made from scratch bearing in mind that I totally adore QotD.

This WW face here is out of this world :jawd:

I have to admit I was a bit worried about Wonder Woman. I passed on the Superman and Batman PFs. And the Catwoman LSF is probably the only Adam Hughes miss from Sideshow unless they fix the likeness. I don't think this Wonder Woman is from an Adam Hughes drawing. I can't tell. But she's beautiful. At the end of that preview video I was ecstatic and watched it a few more times. They really got the build up on this one with the music too. I thought Red Sonja was the best female statue from Sideshow but somehow they just topped it already. This is easily the best Wonder Woman statue too. Even if they make a Lynda Carter version I don't think she will beat this version.

Very awesome! What a great beginning to the event. I love almost everything I see about her.

Luiggi, you should try the Photoshop of her the correct direction because someone earlier stated her hair goes in the opposite direction of Batman's cape, but it doesn't. It goes in the same direction.

Love the physique on her body, she looks muscular, without ever looking manly. Face is fierce, and love the upper part of the pose (not sure on the lower half yet).

My only gripe that I see based on these pics alone, is how her belt seems to hover in the air. Shouldn't it be a closer fit to her torso?

While not the "New 52" versions if the characters, all 4 DC pieces you mentioned are shaping up to be SSC's vision of the "Bronze/Modern" era iterations IMHO. Batman and Superman are not golden age versions.

I don't get what people's problem with the spear is, she's supposed to be adept at using all types of weapons and there's lots of comic instances where she's using a spear.

I'll admit I'm a pretty harsh critic of WW statues, most IMO look like transvestites....

Although I'll hold final judgment until I can see the whole piece from several angles, but from what I have seen in the sneak peek trailer I think SS nailed it, she looks tough yet still feminine. Odds are I'll be pre-ordering this

I believe they already commented that this won't be going up for PO anytime soon. Just letting us finally get a taste of it.

Even if it goes up for PO sometime in Q1 (Jan-March), no way this will see delivery in 2014.
Be lucky to get it mid 2015 the way things have been going.

exactly, this is great but we will not see it in hand for another 2 years :vortex:

But they really did her well.

I like it!

Looks like they went for the fully sculpted approach. I wonder if there was a debate at SS if she should be mixed media vs fully sculpted.

Both Bats and Supes got switch out heads. I hope WW doesn't as a neck seam would be unsightly.

So any speculation on the EX? The bracelets allow for easy hand switchout. So optional weapons?

I know we don't always get along SS. But I must give credit when it's due. Very well done here. I was worried about the face. But now after seeing it I'm very happy with it. Please make sure the production goes well like the one shown. We do not want a psylocke, rogue, or spider woman issue on this one. I prefer to wait longer and have it done right. So SS please do this one justice. Please use this guy to do more DC characters like batgirl, super girl, and power girl. Saying if mark and Tim is not already doing them. this sculpter is right up there with the very best of them all.

I love the sculpt and I am definitely getting this one. I like her muscular body making her look strong but still feminine. I'm also glad that SS did not give her oversized breasts.

Her pose reminds me of Bowen's Shanna the She Devil statue, which I also have and love. Although some people said that they can't see WW with a spear, I've actually seen some commissioned WW drawings/sketches with a spear. I think she looks good with either a sword or spear.

Very awesome! What a great beginning to the event. I love almost everything I see about her.

Luiggi, you should try the Photoshop of her the correct direction because someone earlier stated her hair goes in the opposite direction of Batman's cape, but it doesn't. It goes in the same direction.

Love the physique on her body, she looks muscular, without ever looking manly. Face is fierce, and love the upper part of the pose (not sure on the lower half yet).

My only gripe that I see based on these pics alone, is how her belt seems to hover in the air. Shouldn't it be a closer fit to her torso?

I agree with you. I wish that the belt is closer to her torso and a bit higher so it's not partially covering the stars. However, it's a minor gripe of mine also based on the pics alone. There's still time to fix it and hopefully Sideshow will do it.

That's not so much a belt, but rather some sort of armor plating on her corset or whatever you want to call it. So the way it sticks off on the bottom makes sense considering it would be made of some kind of steel.

Finisher
12-25-2013, 09:10 PM
Not really sold on this one yet.
The staff/spear isn't something I associate with the character, though I can accept it as a design element choice. But it would help if it were incorporated in such a way as to make it a more interesting design rather than just being a prop other than a sword.
Another one knee up pose. It wouldn't be a SS piece without the character having one foot up on something, now would it?
The face is OK...but not alluring enough to me to make me rush out and pre-order it- especially when there are going to be metric ton of these made. Looking at the video though, the early digital sculpt did look more attractive to me. Something seems to have got lost in translation...maybe it's the beady eyes. I'll be taking my time picking this one up. If I even do.
Unlike Red Sonja (which I also continue to have niggling issues with), nothing about this piece looks like a must have/can't afford to let slip by, other than the notability of the character itself.
But at $400, I'm not buying anything just because I like the character. The statue itself has to hit my aesthetic sweet spot and this one isn't looking like it will.

Just one other thing- this isn't directed at Sideshow, but DC and their lame sense of costume design/incessant need to corporate brand. That belt is one of the stupidest designs for an action character I've ever seen. Yes, I get the the WW, but for someone who will likely have to bend at the waist often and is going to get thrown around- why on earth would you wear a belt with three sharp rigid vertical points? It would be one thing if it were being represented as softer fabric, but clearly it's meant to portray some kind of hard rigid material....much like here tiara or bracelets. I've always thought that was lame.

agree ;(

It's basically the safe pose. It's a little different from a museum pose, but at the same time it is not dynamic. In doing this, they can shake it up slightly without having people dislike the pose. It's a very safe option, not much different from just having them stand tall. It's also a good way to show off a base and parts of their legs too.

look at the little black box in the lower left hand corner of the image below.
as far as having an extra SO head. not sure what their plans are. but GL only came with a SO left hand with light up feature. a second head would be cool. but what would it be? her hair done up in a pony tail wrapped with some sort of cord or leather strips?

I never liked EX Switch Out heads. Because if the EX head is a better portrait, I get bummed real bad.

As I cannot get the EX versions from my local retailer in Malaysia at all.

Switch out weapons, arms, legs poses, different bases, that's variety. We all get the one and only nicest head/portrait, while people who want to be exclusive still get their exclusivity. EVerybody wins this way.

good points guys. agreed. i like her hair down anyways. plus. the only other place to put the seam line would be directly under her chin and jaw line for it not to be that noticeable. but it still would anyway.
the only other suggestion i would make is for her to have SO hands for both left and right and have her readying her lasso of truth,. it could totally be doable with the position her arms are in. i went back and watched the video again to make sure that it could be done and from what i could tell it can be. will they? probably not. but it would be pretty cool if they did. but i did find something interesting when watching the video again. at the :15 to :16 second mark you'll see him sculpting her hand and in which it is holding a handle of something. looks to be a sword possibly. is it the handle for the shield as the photo suggests the EX will be? wonder what it is?

That's why I opted to get the DCD Museum Quality piece instead. I think it's a better representation despite the fact that his costume in reality isn't cloth. I can't wait to display him with Bats, Sups and Diana when they arrive.

well considering what SS said about their 1/4 scale pieces back when they released the spiderman comiquette and rhino. from now on 1/4 whether they be mixed media or fully sculpted will be considered as PF. thats from the horses mouth. but if you dont care what the horse says then i guess it doesn't matter..:laugh:

dont really see what the gripe is about the GL PF. i think its a very nice sculpt. Tim did a killer job on it. yeah its not in a similar pose as the other three (Supes Bats and WW) but it still represents the GK extremely well.

The horse wil say a lot of things to sell statues. Having seen the GL PF with my own two eyes I decided that it doesn't fit my collection. The proportions are off making it look small to me. The pose is weird with both arms being held up like they are. It is the Magneto Comiquette of the Sideshow DC PF line just begging to be done over again.

I can see them doing a "classic" GL PF like the DC Direct version later down the road.

It's more of a weapon that she trained with growing up as an Amazon Warrior... If you ever watch the animated movies or even in comics when she goes back to her island all the guards have swords, bows and spears...

I imagine the sword, spear and shield are more of a statement about where she comes from then anything else.

Costume is not bad, but the model's legs are to thick, chest is to wide and she has a huge head. If I remember right this guy photoshops parts off various models to make his WW photos's so that's probably why the parts look a bit out of proportion with each other. All in all she looks a bit to manly for my tastes

I like SS version the best it's a perfect compromise of beauty and athleticism

not to mention the whole entire amazon tribe uses them to train with. its one of the signature weapons of the amazon women. just as it was for the Spartans.

Personally, I think this one looks pretty great. I do think that the face looks a little bit masculine from certain angles but I know that Sideshow won't disappoint us with their final reveal.

If the face stays the same, I'm still in for this one because she looks powerful, confident and hot, in my opinion. I also agree with those who are HAPPY that Sideshow didn't over-inflate the breast area!

They took their time revealing this but it was definitely worth the wait, in my opinion.

I do really hope that they find a way to enhance the skin tone paint application. It really looks monotone in a bad way right now. I'm comparing it to the way that Bowen did the Ms. Marvel 70's edition skin tones, BTW. If Bowen can get it done, it really shouldn't be no problem for SSC. ;)

EDIT...looking at the released pictures again, the skin tone doesn't look so bad after all.

I think this will be the better of Supes and Batman.

At this point it's hard to judge the skin tone because the lighting on the video might not accurately reflect the skin tone. In addition, Sideshow must still be tweaking some parts of this statue which could be the reason why this isn't up for preorder yet. However, I hope that they get the skin tone right. :praying:

The plus side of mixed media is a less chance they will screw up the paint app, since there's less statue to paint..

right. i actually am hoping they do use real rope for her lasso. im a huge fan of realism. so whenever they can incorporate something thats real to the statue im all for it. i think the real rope would really be a better choice for her seems how its her signature accessory.

yea. i think when it comes to the capes. they should have been material rather than sculpted. only because the costume itself is cloth. would have looked and worked a lot better. i would rather have seen the statues fully sculpted due to the fact that the capes were. with the capes being so large and being sculpted and the rest of the costume being cloth. they just seem out of place to me.

OK then. Would this particular statue company kindly ask those factory workers to please have her eyes painted looking in the same frikking direction then? Thanks, statue company.

Really, unfortunately we all know there's quite a big chance she ends up with Sideshow's trademark stupid chameleon look, which would be a disgrace for this beautiful statue.

I hope she turns out to be more Storm PF (which was a very good product) than Poison Ivy PF (whose stare was a travesty of the prototype in such a high percentage of the units).

Please, please, prove me wrong, Sideshow.
