By all means, if this is your only option for a Bishoujo WW, grab her if you can. I've read people were pleased with her overall.

Just expressing why this one didn't quite make the cut for me.

I don't really care for either of them. I only buy Bishoujo's that I find really dynamic and the first one is just way too boring of a pose for me. The second one is a bit more dynamic, but I don't care for the skirt or the style of her boots. If only I could take the outfit from the first one and put it on the 2nd one. Oh well, I will continue to wait and hopefully the 3rd iteration, if it ever comes, will be the right one for me.

I passed on this one due to the secondary market prices. And why pay that when I could get the 1/6 Artfx piece for $60. I also saw and heard about the chrome paint on this piece fading.

I have all three Kotobukiya Wonder Woman versions, and I love them all equally. For sure, you pay a premium now for the first version, and lately for the second version as well. The ArtFX version is still pretty reasonable though, and is a gorgeous piece well worth having IMO. Here they all are for comparison, and just because...

Talking

I have one lined up with the Justice League and another with the underrated DCC bust and Art of War:Cliff Chiang statue. My photos really are the worst argument for its quality but the paint apps are amazing for the size.

Beautiful shots. Makes me appreciate the 2nd bishoujo more than I did before.

Armored Wonder Woman Bishoujo

Just ordered an Armored Wonder Woman Bishoujo. It came in and the first thing I noticed was the chest piece. The metallic red color is significantly faded out. It's more like a dull, worn out red than the bright, metallic red I saw on pics and videos. Is that common with this statue? The statue I bought was used but the person I bought it from said he put it in a glass cabinet away from direct sunlight. Any help would be appreciated.
