Absolutely love the base and sculpt of the figure, and the creative design and engineering with the base and how the statue looks like its flying is insane.

I m not crazy about the portrait either. Or the jacket. But man, does she look great suspended in air like that! And of course the perfectly sculpted body is always a plus. Wouldn't it be cool of they'd change the heads today or tomorrow...

For sure. I'm expecting maybe the arm and sawblade to be one full piece with an angled rod in it.

I happen to like the jacket and like the use of
Mixed media. I know it’s a risk for deterioration, I have a Van Helsing PF flaking all over the place, but I just think it adds an awesome touch of realism. I have older pieces with MM that have held up just fine (John Wayne), so hopefully they use quality materials.

Yeah, that's about the only way you could do it unless the jacket comes pre-placed on the statue, because how else would you get the sleeve around all that?

A join at the shoulder probably. Slight the jacket over the arm and attach the body.

Has anyone considered this being PVC with a polystone base? It would cut weight significantly and increase customer rage by 1000%. lol

Wouldn't bother me at all, as long as she doesn't physically appear to be made of a different material.

I keep saying I wish SS would get rid of the hideous fabric capes to do sculpted PVC capes.

While facesculpt is better than Emma, Psylocke, Poison Ivy and co, I'm still not feeling this one

Overall sculpt is awesome. The other head will decide me to take it or not.

Bring it. Switch to PVC has to happen at some point.

I was thinking about this last night too. I dont think her right arm can join at the shoulder. I dont know how a horizontal magnet could hold up her whole body. I think the right hand and the saw are all one big piece that slides into the robotics arm. But then I dont know how they would get the jacket on her, unless it was sewn directly on her.

EDIT: never thought of the PVC option. that wouldn't bother me either as long as it all looked like it was the same material and if it lightens the loa dim fine and my shelves would be fine with it too haha.
