I can't believe there hasn't been a Harley Quinn variant yet! She's got so many different costumes and her popularity is ridiculously high right now.
Honestly, they are probably basing it off how well the original Harley PF sold. Which it did alright. It probably didn't sell as quick as some of the other DC PFs. I am a huge fan of the character, but didn't get the PF. I just don't like it. AND I am a huge fan of the original costume. I didn't like the portraits or pose. I think quite a few people were underwhelmed with it. Nothing against the artists, I am sure they had direction.

Actually really like the Quinn pf.

Honestly I have zero interest in these red son pf's. Would be interesting if they were new sculpts.....but it's just a waste of space to display red son Wonder Woman and reg Wonder Woman. They need to slow down and stop these varients. Take some time on a statue instead of pushing out 4 crappy qc ones

How many people are going to spend over $400 for an Elseworld version of WW and Supes? Red Son was a great read, but I wouldn't want symbols of communism in my home.

Haha why are people so easily upset with symbolism. I'll be buying WW for sure and maybe Supes as the portrait looks great and loving the costume. My wife is from Moscow so it will make her feel more at home.

I hope he is holding a hammer and she a sickle.

The only thing I don't understand is how the front hair strands flow in one direction but her whole mass of hair in the back is completely blowing in the wind in the opposite direction...

Seems to me the new front strands should flow in the same direction as the rest of the hair. I could be wrong...?

Maybe not upset, but everybody has their own preferences.

It's like Red Skull for me. I ordered the Allied Cap because I like Cap and Avengers in general. Red Skull is the intended companion piece, and as a long time comic reader I enjoy Red Skull as an excellent villain, and it makes sense since I like Cap. I have numerous comics with him in them but I just don't want his Nazi symbolism in my home to the degree of displaying a statue of him. It doesn't bother me so much as it's just not for me. I wouldn't knock anybody else for buying him though, it's just a character...unless they bought him because they share his ideals.

Really, WW is a straight repaint with an added flag, belt and skirt (which we are sure bc we cant see her legs)? Supes get a new face and you know Bats get a whole new look. However WW is the same damn statue?

Oh I lied, they also moved two strands of hair down along her face. My bad.

Since she doesn't have a removable head (no collar to hide the seam) I'm not sure how they could redo the face without needing a whole new body mold?
