Jessica is Poison Ivy.

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

Why is her back so muscly and the rest of her isn’t? Does she skip arms, chest, legs and core and just rock the rowing machine every day???

I think she looks good. I really like the face on her. Sideshow does make really good looking female faces Ill give them that. I also like the base it really compliments her well Im glad they did that. The only complaint I have with the statue is of course the back muscles and I dont like the body that much. They could of gave her better curves that that LOL.

Still think this is better than the new Sideshow Batman, Harley, and Joker.

It's a slant against all those professional female body builders that work really hard. So hear what I am saying and not just argue for arguing sake. And yes SS's track record for going back to the drawing board is almost 0%.
Saying she's too muscular is ABSOLUTELY NOT a negative connotation. She IS too muscular for her character. She's NOT a body builder. She was built to be muscular and she shouldn't be, and that needs to be expressed to the design team or they chance losing massive sales.

When Sideshow released the Scarlet Witch, Black Cat, Ms. Marvel, Darth Talon, Supergirl, Spiderwoman, Mary Jane and so on, was there any mention that any of those sculpts looked mannish? No - likely because they didn't feature masculine attributes. Even though there may have been some collectors who didn't like those pieces, they never used the mannish card as one of the reasons why they passed on it. To suggest that some people are now suddenly making this mannish thing up for this particular statue is preposterous. I see the mannish aspects too, and I do not think I'm imagining things. It isn't the first time I've noticed this on Sideshow sculpts either so it must be a design choice. That's fine.

At the end of the day, if some collectors prefer or do not mind what others might view as mannish attributes on their female sculpts, that's fine. However, others are permitted to prefer something more representative of their mental image of female, which is fine too. Live and let live. There will be another Poison Ivy statue. Just wait for the next bus.
