I know what you mean. The (Wonder Woman) portrait is one of Prime 1 finest (female portraits) moments to date.

I've found another video. The quality makes Catwoman look slightly better (compared to the previous video)
Its a booth tour, and the guy doing the talking likes EVERYTHING bar maybe Aquaman, which gets the silent treatment

I've started to like the Prime 1 Harley Quinn more, even although the pose failed to blow me away.
While the Margot Robbie likeness isn't present, the Bubble gum portrait impresses

Harley Quinn Arkham Knight has been discounted by $86 over at Sideshow and even more so on other websites. This piece is regard as something good by Prime 1 standards. Is it because of the 1500 units? or not selling as well as expected? I wonder if other Prime 1 pieces will drop in price once they start to ship?

Yes there is, with the goggles up apparently.

EDIT: Actually no, I think the second head sculpt has the goggles down over her eyes...

The portrait looks more like someone who looks similar to Hathaway. IMO it still needs more tweaks to get it to look more like the actress.

Agreed. There is something non Hathaway going on. Maybe the portrait is too wide / boxy. The imposter looks 5 to 10 years older. Fingers crossed, Prime 1 perform some major fixes. Given some people like it, Prime 1 just might leave Catwoman as she is.


I like the way Prime 1 have a massive poster behind the statue, allowing all to see the neck height difference.
The distance between lower chin and the top of Catwomans outfit (collar area).

If Prime 1 make Catwomans neck longer, they also have to re-work her hair.

Sweeeeeet

Hopefully there's an alternate hand with fingers touching the goggles, as if she's sliding them down. It seems like the arm is close enough for it.

The funny thing is, if the sculpt had reflected her true neck height, everyone would be screaming about it being too long.

Probably. At the moment, her head looks too low.

Something else i have noticed with this pose. In the original, Catwoman is pushing on her hip, pushing her stomach forward / outwards.
The Prime 1 version of the pose, other than failing to have the hand connect with the body, appears to show Catwoman doing the opposite of push her stomach forward, which possibly add's to the unnatural look.
