I can't imagine that it wouldn't.

For those who saw this in person at SDCC -- were the chains removable, or rather, not glued to her skin?

It seems that a factory could nail the paints IF the chains and her body were two separate things. I would think it could also reduce scuffing during shipping. That way collectors can just put the chains on upon receipt.

I didn't look close enough to determine whether the chains were attached or removable. It is interesting, though, that "metal" is one of materials listed on the product page. If that refers to the chains, it seems unlikely to me that they'd be attached to her skin.

Now that you mention it, I hope they are not attached for scuffing reasons. Even if they put plastic around the attached chains, it makes it easy to scuff while removing.

Thanks NM. I'm hoping they aren't attached in lots of little spots. Aside from the scuffing/breaking, I like how they are loose on her body as real body/belly chains would be.

If you look where they attach, they look like necklace clasps...so could be separate from the rest of the figure

I think it was a mixture of both. The torso chains are definitely separate chains, while her foot decor, for example, looked sculpted on and painted.
