Frank Cho's WW or Jungle Girl
Hi guys, i'm new in the forum, and recently i had the need to own a statue from Cho's work, i look for all kind of reviews of both statues (Dynamite's Jungle Girl and DC's WW), and i saw that the paint job from JG is a total crap, but the sculpt is amazing. I thought in repainting it, but for almost $200, i rather get WW. What do you think guys, it is worth to purchase JG and repainting it? or just wait (crossing fingers) that sideshow or kotobukiya maybe will release one with a better paint job. I know it's my decision but i'm always listening to everyone. Thanks!

There are several Jungle Girl statues, and the one with her standing on top of a dinosaur skull has multiple variants. All of them appear to be more than $200 at this point.
If you do get Jungle Girl, I would recommend the black and white version:

I have both, and while the paint on JG is not great, is not that bad at least for mine. I was able to touch up some spots and I love it! WW is also a great piece, just depends on which character fits your collection or likes. WW is a larger scale. And welcome to the forum!

Ok Gothie, why would you recommend the B&W version over the other variants?

1) There are only 99 of them.
2) It's cheaper than either of the color ones and is actually sold by Amazon rather than a third party (easier to get a return/exchange if necessary).
3) Color version has paint issues.
Amazon also has the B&W Diamond Eye version (only 13 total): https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0734ZHHHD

I have both and would strongly recommend the WW. Better sculpt and paint apps.

I agree if you go with Jungle Girl get the Black and White version. Looks much better than the paint on the color version.
