But, it's obvious you find some kind of enjoyment in making negative comments towards me, as you've done so in other threads too - so carry on, just makes you look bitter.
Given the title of the thread "Knight of the Rising Sun"

And all I said in the other thread was it seemed like you were always fighting with someone.... As for my statement in here, it was just a blanket statement for those who were complaining that it didn't look like Catwoman...

It reminds me a lot of the TDKR version because of the motorcycle. Even though XM is using a japanese theme, there are a lot of small things there that hints towards Catwoman and, honestly, I find it pretty easy to recognize the character. But I can´t say the same about their Bane, for exemple.

I'm with the others who are confused how this doesn't say "Catwoman" to some. It's a direct homage to Anne Hathaway as Catwoman.

Does Catwoman need to have a huge clownish grin? Be on a rooftop? Carrying a bag of jewels? Breaking into a safe/window? Fawning over Batman?

I like this Catwoman bc it reminds me of what Selina can be -- just a beautiful minx. I loved When In Rome bc Selina was drawn in beautiful clothes that showed off her femininity without being "superhero". This is the Japanese version of that idea and I'm happy we didn't get a total retool of her outfit.

Catwoman looks amazing. One of the best female head sculpts by XM ever.

I wish the bike was smaller (the front part of the bike seems way too big) which would have decreased both the area and (one would hope) the price.

I can see talented people making custom bases to put her on. Her position an points of contact with the base seem very workable.

Jesus that face is amazing. Can't get enough. While this has always been my favorite portrait design, I hope XM switches them out to show a new one each day.

Cat woman looks amazing. Knowing XM they will have an alternate portrait in the future. That will take this piece over the top. Great looking piece!
