In the current pose, I still like it, but would have preferred the announcement pic. I hope they include the lasso on her hip cuz if it is based off that reference art, then there will be no weapons!? What's an Amazonian woman w/out her weapons!?

Regardless, I'm excited for this cuz I'm sure it'll be a lot nicer looking painted. I hope they expand these out to the other main JLA members now....
I agree with most of your points but having a few WW pieces already I dont mind the odd one without the weapons for something different. It is kind of like how I am sick of the endless parade of Batman with Batarang pieces.

Love the original art but I can see how this one will stand better with the existing statues. Though an early version I'm liking this is that bit more feminine than the still good SS statue that doesn't look 100% spot on for me. Very happy to stick with this line which is perfect so far.

Personally, I like it a lot. It doesn't look like most Wonder Woman statues.

I'm sure Koto will knock this out of the park.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Yeah, I disagree with some of the qualms people are having. She looks great to me.

From what I can tell, they've made her very pretty without focusing on sexy. It's a good balance between powerful and regal.

Also, not to step on anyone's toes, but as nicely done as Sideshow's trinity is from statue to statue, I think these have the capacity to form a much more cohesive, complimentary display when paired up. Both style and size contribute heavily to that opinion though.

I agree, also it's going to look a bit funky when both bats and supes are fabric and WW is fully sculpted... she's going to look out of place IMO..

I also love the fact also that these DC Koto's do not need a base and if desired can stand on their own just fine..... Not to mention cheap price for a nice 1/6 piece

Looks good, but what's with the slowdown on ARTFX pieces? The smaller scales don't interest me much.

Fabric looks fine next to fully sculpted statues.

Ivy is fully sculpted and she looks stunning along side Bats and Joker fabric PF, she does not look out of place.

Hulk is fully sculpted and is displayed along side Captain A and Thor fabric PF.

Etc.....

I am looking forward to painted Wonder Woman, I know app will be as good as Bats and Supes. Don't think we will see any weapons with Wonder Woman if Koto go by that Jim Lee sketch.
