This being a movie statue will come down to the likeness of the actress.... Hopefully they got a sculptor who is good with likeness working on this one... The last several movie statues have had not so great likenesses IMO... (IE: Catwoman, MOS PF, Captain America, Christopher Reeve)....

This or P1 New 52. I'll buy the better of the two, but not both.

I've never bought a movie version Marvel or DC piece. The only time I've considered straying from comic versions is the Arkham P1 pieces and I've yet to make a plunge.

I honestly am not not enjoying the DC movies enough to feel vested in these characters. I'm sure this piece will look good for those who are buying. Good luck to you, just not my cuppa tea.

The DC cinematic universe has been an unmitigated disaster. Why anyone would want a token of this mediocrity and wasted potential is beyond me.

I didn't find the Superman movie bad. I quite enjoyed it. Other than that I would agree it's been disappointing.

I really wish that DKR movie hadn't positioned Batman as semi retired and they build on that series. It was really exceptional.

Now Lex Luthor is a kid, Doomsday is a cave troll, Croc watches BET, Joker is an over-acting goth pimp, Deadshot is the Fresh Prince, and Batman is Ben Aflek who's now going to be directing DC movies! If anything needs a reboot it's this.

Regardless, I think Gadot is a beautiful WW. The series she's in is just unfortunately very weak.

Although I think the costume is kind of the same in both BvS and the upcoming solo Wonder Woman movie, but I think if they were doing the new 2017 movie, we could have had the "God Killer" sword with the figure I think.

Anyhow, if Sideshow can nail the portrait in terms of likeness to Gal Gadot, it's all good. How it is painted will be crucial. Usually it's the painting that mars a good sculpt.

It's a hit and miss sometimes for Sideshow. The Rey(Star Wars VII) PF has very good likeness. A hit. On the other hand, Rogue One's Jyn Erso PF is a miss IMO.

But still, judging from this preview pic, I'm pretty sure it is inspired by this photo and pose:


Great Hera!
