Domino has plot armor with her "luck".
I don't see this as a play on Star Wars. Bounty hunters existed before Star Wars. Jedi Knights were based on knights and magic wielders. If anything, you could say this line and Star Wars were similarly inspired.

Like you said though, it's fantasy. Who can say (without any source material to reference) if this character would be a viable bounty hunter based on their size alone.

Science: any small woman who knows how to fight that fights a large man who does not know how to fight has a decent chance to win.

Any small woman who knows how to fight that fights a large man who knows how to fight is doomed.

For me they have to sculpt something that is sexy but not over the top, like I don't want to see her wearing a helmet, combat boots and then a string bikini... just makes no sense...

Kind of like Gentle Giant's Honey Trap and Sucker Punch but I assume less stylized and no mash-ups.

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

That makes sense if the base is a bathtub.

It's not that simple. Even with matching size and martial prowess, men and women aren't that interchangeable. There are various psycho and physiological X factors. My idea of plausibility is a bit more grounded in reality than what's popular today.

I'm more interested in a statue of a woman who isn't a warrior, bounty hunter, or a dark sorceress.

I agree about Tank Girl. But that won't happen...

About the statue, big gun and boring pose. Why can't these ladies with big guns have an action pose.
Agreed, love the dynamic poses of Gambit and Rogue maquettes.
