I think the real problem with that Catwoman is that her goggles are glued too high on her head... Hence the feeling of her face being longer. And you see more of the subpar eye paint too. Otherwise she looks fine to me. It's not like some more expensive pieces don't come with the same issues anyway XD

It's exasperating how much hand-wringing there is over a picture taken using a camera with a distorting lens.

Look at how the lens squishes the entire body and also creates an unnatural sense of depth, almost as if the user turned on some sort of software filter.

I posted this pic as proof that the statue is indeed appearing in comics shops, not as a representation of how it actually looks.

I agree about the photo distortion and mentioned that my previous post. But even in the DS video I can see the area under the goggles doesn't have the finished look that was on the prototype. Can't fix that with a dab of paint.

The eyes look fine. You have to take into account how that other picture was taken with a camera that didn't pick up the light green paint inside the eyes.





I wish that the final production piece kept the zipper ring, though.

Gothie, you make a very good point though.

Has anyone seen the paint job they did on Gwen's unmask face?
believe it or not, its nicely done, well the one I saw at my gamestop a while ago that is. I was shocked. Pictures on the net didn't do her justice, I think.

I'm hoping its the same with CW here.
I will have to see this CW in person before I purchase her. It could be that it is the angle its taken and the camera distorting the face like mentioned by Gothie above




I do love the position they used for this CW though.

I'm just hoping its not another Elektra..Pfff hehehe

I wonder if SS can do a 1/4 version of her
I'm sure they can nail it, especially the face

Definitely. I buy online only when there's a great deal or when an item is hard to find.

Same here. I guess I will wait until someone does a review or when I see it in person.

Unfortunately my closest comic book store is kind of hole in the wall so I'd have to be really lucky to find it there, and then hope it looks good.
