Might be a dumb question, but I thought this wasn't coming out for another few weeks. Did I miss something?

They may have ordered straight from Japan. Can usually get them earlier if you do that.

Japan and Europe get them a month before US. You can pre-order from amiami.com and get it straight from Japan. Supergirl is currently sold out. You dont pay much more. Sometimes they are even cheaper, you can pre-order Captain Marvel for 7250 yen($68) with shipping its cheaper than BBTS's $84 shipped

I find it to be about the same as BBTS with the $4 shipping. That's why I am leaning towards ordering BBTS first now

It varies per piece, Supergirl is priced at 8700 yen ($81) before shipping so BBTS is definitely the cheaper option. But others like Captain Marvel and Decapre are discounted enough on Ami to be cheaper to get from them with shipping plus you get them a month sooner.

Ah. I am fine with waiting a little on it, just worried me a little bit.

No worries, to me the sculpt & finish has improved compared to the classic version. If i want the DC Rebirth SG there's always the new Cover Girls statue.

This one's fine, repainted Poison & SFV Chun-Li a little so it looked closer to Shunya's art.

Good comparisons. It really shows kotos improvement and not looking too baby faced or anime-ish.

Powergirls body is fine but that face needs a redo imo.

I agree, the new versions of Wonder Woman and Supergirl are improvements, they're a bit more mature looking vs the baby faced ones they replaced. Hopefully Koto continues on this trend...

I do wish they would of given Supergirl an environmental or clear base so she would blend in more with the others vs the logo base. I'm not a fan of logo bases...
