She didn't look like that in that unboxing video of her, that picture almost looks like someone was using photoshop to warp her face

Yep. I thought she just looked bored in the proto pics. These production ones make her look sad lol. Rebirth WW looks nothing like that in the face. Why can't someone just make a pretty comics WW? The rest of the statue looks great though.

I mean that face is about right. It has always been the weakest part of the sculpt. A scuplt/design I might add that is very strong. But the portrait has always had this disinterested look. Whereas the new SS Wonder Women that for reasons unknown people love to criticize portrait blows this out of the water. And that portrait didn't even meet the prototype and its still fantastic. I compare the 2 because when you make me pay $500 for a 1/6th scale you now allow that comparison with 1/4th in the same pricing neighborhood. All that being said I'm still in on this the sculpt is very strong and the portraits are acceptable.

Eagerly anticipating mine via Spec Fiction. Bmutha review looks promising.

Yeah, Bmutha video review looks great, the only thing that worries me a tad is the helmet portrait, it does look like XM might have messed up on it... which is a shame and something XM should replace if it shows up deformed on everyone's... luckily the normal portrait looks great...

I'm still waiting for my Joker replacement, and now they're having issues with another one? XM needs to tighten up their quality control on these 1/6 statues. Makes me not want to preorder any others and just take my chances on finding one after in-hand pics are out.

You probably could wait if the extra plaque you might get from ordering early doesn't interest you. It seems SpecFiction orders extras as they still have WW & Joker up for sale...

I agree XM needs to tighten up their QC but at least they tend to be quick to fix any issues before too many leave the factory, of course, that doesn't help the ones who get the first batch...
