Maybe. I love the Sinestro Yellow Lantern PF that SS released. Would've enjoyed putting more Fear Lanterns behind him. Also I'd be tempted by Guy Gardner - he was great in the terribly underrated Green Lantern Animated Series.
SS's Sinestro is amazing. I love that piece (even after I had to return my original one due to leaning long after purchase, and had to hunt one down on the secondary market). And that GL animated series was fire. They went deep too!

Yeah, as for Star Sapphire, I doubt we'll get her space Vampirella (credit: Igo for that phrase )Blackest Night outfit, so I'm already counting on a customs group for that look (they already made Atrocitus). But I'd take almost any version from SS. And you never know, their DC ladies have still been plenty sexy.

So this is the Star Sapphire "Space Vampirella" costume version?



Damn! I want Sideshow to make a PF of her with this costume.

With he way DC is now, you'll never get that costume.

Damn it! I blame Sideshow! They should've made a Star Sapphire PF 5 years ago.

I believe that costume debuted during Geoff Johns run. I never like that costume. The other one is ok. I believe that there have been few variations of both.

Yeah, I cannot see DC okaying that costumer to be made into a statue.

I am still hoping that Tweeterhead will still do the classic Star Sapphire costume.

While I understand the attraction for nostalgia, that's a big nope from me. The granny panty cut of her costume is terrible. It's literally the only costume I DON'T want a Star Sapphire statue of....

I think that the original outfit could look ok if it was a pink body suit with purple boots to match the gloves

also,I think if the bare midriff was filled in I would not mind that outfit.

Classic is the only version I would want, and only in 1/6. Might be part of the problem trying to do this character, the fan base is relatively small and already split.

And not sure "nostalgia" is accurate here, wasn't the classic costume the main one until like 2006? I didn't know anything about her until a few years ago.

Starfire was dressed skimpy, why not Star Sapphire? Poison Ivy barely had any plants. Don’t sell SS short, they may try.

Well, fair enough, but nostalgia is going to be relative. I certainly wasn't born when she was created, and enjoyed her most during Johns' years when she arguably had the most popularity, since that introduction, in the lantern universe. And does it matter LOL? Use whatever terminology you prefer

In the end, the og costume does nothing for me
