I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

I would. I love Tweeterhead, but the WW and Superman (my main issue is it looks like a mini version of the Sideshow PF, which I did not love, although the head sculpt is much more preferable) have given me pause from going all-in on this line. Right now, Wonder Woman look like she's participating in a body building competition. I don't hate the pose, but I don't love it. I do think the design works with the previously intended switch out bullet blast cuffs. Something else needs to be going on with that pose. I think a sword/shield would help.

I'm all for switch outs, not sure I would use them. Would need to see it of course. But I like having options.

I like having options, but I really like her posed blocking bullets--just wish the bullet ricochets were going to be included.

As I am not a Facebook/Twitter person - in case TH is monitoring this thread, (I have pre-ordered this statue) - I think without the ricocheting bullets the pose loses something. It becomes an awkward mix of 'muscle flexing' and 'bullets and bracers' - but her face is rather relaxed - intent but relaxed, which skews it towards the former.
I'm not sure a sword/shield combo would fix that, but I'm all for switch outs, if the ricochet bracers aren't options. Could something be done with the lasso instead, which seems more in keeping with the era of the costume? I know that would definitely make it very similar to the new SS, but they are such different scales and styles, I don't think that matters (and as I have a room full of WW statues, I can say that at some point, all poses repeat!)

I do like that Bombshell WW statue, but the ricochet effect shown at SDCC for this statue really got my attention. I'm still getting the TH one, but it would be cool to see her doing something with her arms. Maybe stretching the lasso between her hands?

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

While I greatly appreciate you guys going the extra mile to include more exclusive offerings on this piece I would hope going forward these kind of things could be announced & finalized at or before pre-ordering starts.
Speaking for myself I almost ordered through Sideshow to burn my reward points with them since I was satisfied with the regular version. Now that the exclusive will be changing I am very interested in it and as we all know the only way to get that is to order direct. Had I placed my order at Sideshow I'd lose my deposit by canceling. So please consider this when changing things up after ordering starts. Thanks!
