She could?ve just started?

I have definitely been addressing this recently as you are correct.......it has become more and more noticeable. Almost obvious if you ask me. I noticed a tremendous difference when the last Emma Frost PF came out as opposed to the one that came out before her. I had both. And yes, the earlier OG PF had the attire and build of what I would deem as depicting a more comic accurate look for her where she was in the X-Men or the Helfire Club. Now I realize that the OG version was an overall more stylized version of her but still, there was/is a substantial difference in modesty from that one to the most recent Emma PF. Again I get that the most recent Emma is meant to be a more 'realistic' version but for the character of Emma.....it just seems and always has seemed (to me) as too much on the modest side for how she wonders around from day to day in the comics.

When I saw the Psylocke PF (with the pink Psy-Base) I always felt the same........I always wondered why the g-string/thong was not as pronounced as it is drawn in the comics. I believe the OG one had a sharper/higher cut as well. The most recent looks more like a cross between a Brazilian cut bottom and a full back. For me, not as comic accurate as I have been used to. But again, that is just me.

I recall the OG Ms. Marvel (Warbird).......If I am not mistaken, she had dental floss, no...??

And then when the recent Power Girl came out and her upper area was as small as it was.......that was when I really felt that things were amiss.

Again, not trying to be creepy.....just thinking about comic accuracy is all.

For me, Elektra (particularly this version-which seems to be more comic accurate--her costume)......I am used to her sporting a thong. Not a full/fuller back.

But again, it's just my opinion and observations.

You are right for sure. Not being creepy.

Honestly most women still like to be perceived as attractive/sexy as well. There's totally a difference between being objectified vs looking attractive and confident.

Some of the older sculpts did go a bit too far but most were fine. Hopefully they don't go overboard with these changes. We haven't seen any morbidly obese or bearded female sculpts yet so at least we're clear of all of that for the moment lol.

If I loved Elektra like I love Storm, I?d own this and the previous PF in a heartbeat. I love the sexy museum and the awesome action versions.

Some female dwarfs in Middle-earth have beards, would that sculpt be OK?

Well now that is true isn't it. I'm honestly fine with them doing whatever sells the most and keeps the hobby alive and going.

But I will say I do prefer the source accuracy for these statues. If the source has boobs, and a beard, and it sells well... good for Sideshow

I'm gonna be honest, I'm concerned about the teeth now that I see them in this angle. Will have to see more pics to be sure.

Yup, good point. Kinda looks like she's breaking the 4th wall by looking at the audience instead of her adversaries.

I’d imagine good fighters are always looking ahead at their next target because they have accounted for the ones near them. That’s how I take this.

These people are just fodder she doesn’t care about and her main target is ahead.

Maybe someday we'll get a statue of Kirigi. He definitely gave Elektra a run for her money.
