To be fair, other than the costume, the Tweeterhead Joker looks nothing like the Super Powers version. I take that as a plus, as no one would want a $200-$300 version of this...
Harley, of course, didn't exist yet when the Super Powers line was being released, but Tweeterhead did go with a more cartoony look than many interpretations of that character.

She does and I have always thought that too. Wonder Woman, Supergirl, and Donna Troy have the same soft, comic book look. Harley, Starfire, and Catwoman have more realism to their looks. Supes and Bats too.

The switch outs are a nice option but to be honest I think you really only need the one midsection, the difference between them is pretty minor IMO, I would been happy with either one but if they only made one midsection they could of had sculpted her as one piece, thus removing the seam issue.
Like I mentioned before as long as she sits below your eye line you won't see the seam, but if she is placed up on a higher shelf you will defiantly see the seam from any angle. It was defiantly a poor design choice as you shouldn't be forced to display a statue a certain way in order to avoid an eyesore.
That said, I have her on a lower shelf so ultimately it doesn't really bother me to much as I can't see it.
Truthfully I'm a little on the fence with TH Superpower lineup due to some questionable design choices by Chad, IE: Weird Joker smile on Supergirl, Very plain base on Superman, visible neck seam on WW.... And then there were some issues with Harley's plume leaning. It's been a little rough going for TH on this lineup...
It will be interesting to compare these to the XM 1:6 DC statues I have on pre-order, these TH DC statues defiantly have a comic book vibe to them (which has it's own charm)... But I've always preferred the more realistic look so in the end I might end up selling the TH if the XM's turn out really nice. Especially if XM goes deep into the DC roster.
Overall I would give this WW statue a 7/10, had there been no neck seam it would of easily gotten a 9/10

Just curious if you misspell this on purpose? I have seen you do if for years now. Are you being defiant and not spelling it correctly as a joke? As far as I can tell it is the only word I ever see you misspell.

Yes softer is a good way to explain it. I don't think it's a bad thing, they just don't all appear to be the same line imo. As 'mint pointed out that could be very intentional, just struck me as odd.

I'm glad Diana and Donna appear similar and will look great together. Not that I'm getting ahead of myself.
