I like it to, but maybe add the Venus fly traps as well?

Looks a bit odd to me... I love her, ahem, behind. I love the colors, the hair... The pose is fine by me but the hand looks too small? However what I really dislike are the face and the plants. Plus I always feel like this line is too small and the figures themselves are given poses that are way too static. Everyone's just lounging around bored )

They've attempted dynamism with the Nu52 villains, but it didn't go well, mainly because the heroes were based on static Jim Lee art, so anyone wanting to pair a hero with a villain (such as GL and Sinestro) ended up with a weird setup. I think they have more leeway with whatever separate line they're creating with these Sirens.

Well, I would say that it's a good line for beginner collectors or those with limited money/space but compared to what you're getting I usually find there overpriced. To each their own, of course (I'm sure there's at least someone on this forum who hates every single piece of merch I own ) ). But I guess I'm just a bit disappointed since I know Koto could do more and better than this.

And with that I have made my peace - sorry for being such a hater :P

No worries. I started collecting Koto well after I got into larger Premium Format pieces. I was a skeptic from the pictures, but I ate a helping of crow once I got them in-hand. I have more detailed pieces, sure, but the paint apps especially make them equally vibrant in my eyes.

The hair seems brighter compared to the prototype above. Hope the lighting is throwing things off.

Was worried about this as well, but her hair inst even close to that shade of bright red. It just really picks up the light in pictures apparently.

Even in this one I just took it seems much lighter then in reality. It looks closer to the dark red in shown in the promo pics.

I was surprised to find the ivy came separately and has to be bent around her by hand. Thought it would be part of the sculpt, although looking at the promo pics now it's easy to see it's not.
