After being exposed to deadly chemicals in her Gotham botany lab, Dr. Pamela Isley develops a natural immunity to all toxins, as well as the ability to control plant life. She adopts the name Poison Ivy, and sets out in an attempt to help the environment- at any cost.
Artgerm’s inspired twist on Poison Ivy blends her natural beauty with fun and fashion, making her a stunning addition to this Artist Series.

I appreciate the art and the creative freedom they gave Stanley for these pieces. Unfortunately, they are not for me.

I like her better than catwoman and harley but I can't get past her eyebrows.

This is the weakest of the 3. She looks so skinny and her right arm looks so long. The entire thing looks off. Hate the eyebrows. Reminds me of girls that shaves there eyebrows and puts fake brows to cover the space. I'm passing this entire line.

All of a sudden Poison Ivy reminds me of a Praying Mantis.

She looks to me like a cross between Disney's Peter Pan and one of Santa's helper elves.

Right arm is definitely too long. Elbow is way past the waist compared to the other

A forest elf that is trying to be a fashion model.

As opposed to wanting to break away from the flock to be a dentist, she wants to walk the catwalks in Milan.

Another example of an artist appearing completely out of touch with the essence of a character. I'm not sure what to make of this bizarre design choice other than to echo what Demona said: "It looks like a forest elf or pixie trying to be a fashion model".

Rather than say it looks as ridiculous as it looks silly - I'll recognize the artist for trying to be daring and different.

Out of the three, Ivy is my favorite design. I mean, at least it's not trying to be a fashionable car burglar, or a murderous jester. She is just trying to be pretty.

This statue would have gone more off the rails IF Artgerm/SS had tried to tie in venomous plants or something like that.

My first thought was Tinkerbell.

Interesting interpretation but not something I would buy.

The neck is a tad long too.

I will pick this up since I am an Ivy completist and I think she will have some great shelf presence. Sure, this is not a classic Ivy look, but I appreciate the effort to give collectors something different. I am waiting to see the edition size first and hope SS will offer a deal eventually like free shipping or something.

She looks more like a red headed Vulcan doing the long live and prosper sign with her hand. :D

Definitely off the rails in terms of what we were expecting, but I give Artgerm credit for at least appeasing many fanboys with more skin and her bosomy rack which saves the piece imo.

The face sculpt and body on this piece has potential, but the huge leaf covering most of her rear half just makes the piece seem somehow incomplete / rushed.

I didn't want to be the one to point it out first, but yeah, that rack is pretty glorious lol

It's very natural looking which is a refreshing change. I noticed that feature right away, but didn't want to be that girl who admits she always judges other girl's endowments .

who am I kidding, all women are like that.
