Just watched the video you linked, and I still much prefer still photos. What is the point of posting videos where the autofocus ruins everything?

Mine might take a few days to ship. Got notification of the shipping label created by my retailer but not yet picked up by UPS.
Looking forward to your photos. You take the best photos desertdragon.

Wonder Woman training outfit showed up today... The production piece casting doesn't capture all the subtle detail and expression of the prototype, but I think the esthetic idea for this was to be a more minimal but elegant version of WW, and I think it succeeds in that... The skin tone is a bit more olive tinted than the BvS WW, and she's inexplicably shorter by about a half inch. Overall though I really like the piece, and I think it's a great complement to WW on horseback and BvS WW.

Awesome pics! I'm excited to receive mine. I just hope the movie lives up to my expectations.

Wow, the BvS statue is just really oversized, unless WW is still a growing teenager during WWI.

Great shots as usual desertdragon!
My Training Outfit version arrived safely this afternoon as well. And boy, she is cute! When in comparison to the BvS WW, everything about her is just a slight tad smaller from the size of her face, thickness of her arms and legs, and her height. She does look like a teenage WW in the making.
Just a precautionary note to other collectors as they get theirs. When you take her out of the styrofoam box, gently pick up the left and right sides of her waist with your fingers carefully. Do not accidentally grab her braided hair at her back side as pressing on it could easily snap her braid.

Thank you Nugchompa and toysforlife! I agree that the training outfit sculpt is just smaller overall than BvS WW, so maybe she really is supposed to be a younger / teenage version of the character? And I do hope too that the movie is actually good - Gal Gadot deserves that at least...

The sheen on the translucent resin of WW on horseback seems to have gone away. The statue did have a resin and paint smell out of package. Looks like the volatiles have evaporated.
