It's my favorite so far... but too pricey at Amazon:

Not fair, Funko.



Does anyone own this yet?

Found an ebay listing for $30:

Oh wow, that sucks. My store still has a bunch, but then again I live in a small town.

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

Emerald City Comic Con if it helps you find one.

Tushar lives in India, so he's gonna have to pay a bit to get it exported to him no matter the source.

I see you went with black for the scarf. It makes the scarf subtle. But the logo pops more, so that looks good.

Anyway, congrats on a job well done.

Also, you should include a picture of the original in your post, for reference.

I probably should have left the scarf purple, lol. Once I started painting it, I got paint on other areas I had intended to keep unpainted. One thing led to another, and I wound up painting most of her black.

But yeah, it's almost impossible to see the scarf now.

Nothing like attempting to paint a statue to make you realize how difficult it is to keep the lines clean and straight. You did a good job. You can always use masking tape to block off the areas you didn't want to paint like the scarf.

Thanks for the tip! This thing is so small, though, so cutting itty bitty pieces of tape would've driven me insane.

Good job Gothie! I tried a repaint/custom on a rock candy supergirl and at first I thought it was ok, but now I can’t even look at it. You need super focus and fine motor function to get the lines straight
