The idea is great it had the goggles from Catwoman and the bike has some little cat details.

So the only one who notices that are the one who could trace her back to Catwoman just like it would be in real life when she was driving a bike in Gotham City.

But the price of 300$ is way to high for this puzzle like Catwoman Statue

False! I'm definitely not a biker, but I'm getting this for sure.

I don't understand why everyone is saying "omg! Not cat woman!" It isn't supposed to be the standard cat woman. It's a biker catwoman. A damn fine one at that. How is that not Selina Kyle as a biker?

Yeah, I'm not a biker, and I like it. Not sure I have room for her in my collection, but I still think it looks nice.

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

I like this different approach to Catwoman and I'm not a biker either. This biker approach is similar to the Bombshells line which is different take on the DC female characters. Maybe Harley and Poison Ivy will next on the list since it pertains to Gotham City? Batgirl? Batwoman? Talia al Ghul?

As for the MSRP for this piece, I'll wait for the secondary market to get a bit cheaper.

Based on the responses you may need more foresight methinks

I am no biker and I really like it. Not something I would impulse buy for myself at the cost, but I respect the art and like the concept. I myself love the subtlety of the piece and that Selina's identity is not overt. This will make for a great display with the proposed Harley and Ivy vehicular pieces.

I dunno 300 bucks for a super obscure Catwoman statue seems excessive to me.

Is it just me or does this statue have that same waxy skin tone that ruined the Man of Steel statues?

For a chic on a bike it's pretty slick. For Catwoman on a bike, IMO, I don't see it.

I think it looks cool, but I agree, it doesn't say Catwoman to me, either. And I like the upcoming Bombshell line which some would say also doesn't look the character, but I think this gets too far away. But again, it's a great looking piece and I can see the appeal, just not for me.
