Actually you would be surprised how many PVC attachments are out there on statues, even some sideshow ones have PVC hands. Ones that come to mind is the mark brooks dazzler that i remember working on.
Sometimes its not as flexible as that in the gif, but with fingers they use some softer resin to reduce damages.

But what possesses them to put specific PVC pieces on certain sculpts? It's not like the Vixen in particular is an intricate sculpt or anything.

Porb a number of factors, maybe some items they think won't sell well and cut corners. maybe the factory decided for casting purposes a specific part needed to be pvc or soft resin etc.
Maybe who ever is leading that specific project didn't realize people dislike PVC and went the cheaper route.

Just was talking about this in the other thread, but something else that makes the Vixen Bombshell look cheap... great. I really like this character so I'm feeling a bit conflicted and shafted to be honest.

Just wait for a good price. She was as low as $70 on Amazon about two weeks ago.

Starfire and Raven came out great! Really crisp paint apps, especially on the faces
