I'm curious, what are your favorite Wonder Woman New 52 statues outside of DC Collectibles?

I haven't seen any that I've liked, so the three in my review are all that I'm planning on getting. I was hoping that Icon Heroes would make one, but they seem focused on Rebirth right now.

I know at least one company is making a New 52 WW 1/4-scale statue, but that one looks like a monster.

The portraits on that Prime 1 Wonder Woman leave a lot to be desired.

Yikes!

Why is it so hard to find a good WW face sculpt?!

For me, nothing beats the one on the 1/6th Jim Lee series statue by Koto.
But even Koto fudged their New 52 ArtFX+ portrait.

The Gal Gadot likeness on the Prime 1 Justice League statue is the best I've ever seen. And yet... how can they mess up this New 52 one so badly?

Well, if you like the New 52 costume as I do, I recommend getting the Ikon statue that I just reviewed. The face looks better in person bc I used a crappy phone camera. (You'll probably get it quicker than I did since India is closer to Australia than I am.)

PopCultcha also has the smaller statues in stock.

My favorite look of hers is from the early 2000s (Greg Rucka run), but I do like the silver highlights in the New 52 costume.

My collectible budget for the next 3 moths is booked solid. (In addition to some statues, I've PO'd 3 action figures which I must have.) I'll try adding a New 52 WW to my collection after June. I'm leaning toward the Sam Greenwell one, though.

After that, the only thing missing, for me, would be WW in her Violet Lantern costume. If someone ever decides to make it into a killer statue, that is.

Here you go:



As for Sam Greenwell WW, here's a nice review. The statue has a noticeable lean, though it was designed that way.

Hmm. Thanks for the review link. The review was great, as always. Seems like this statue isn't what the pictures suggested. Oh well, I'll keep looking. So far, I haven't seen any New 52 WW statue that screamed "must-buy" to me.

I almost bought one to "complete the set", but the lean scared me away.

Kinda surprised that DC didn't make a New 52 Wonder Woman for the Art of War line, and it looks like that line has been canceled now.
