I think this looks great. Surprised people are condemning it.

Batmans cape has to be plastic for weight and balance. The gf thought it was leather before touching it.

It's just hard to judge one way or the other without seeing it in-person it seems, due to its size. The paint app really pops in almost all the photos, but I definitely see where the gold helmet and armor can appear cheap and plasticky in some. I imagine the skin will have a more comic-like (i.e. Bowen) compared to P1's realistic translucent resin, but that approach leads to criticism from some when XM attempts it at 1:4, so there's even more potential to disappoint here.

The cape is not needed she hardly ever wears one. It kind of reminds me of the DC Direct 1/4 scale piece they released about 10 years ago (minus the helmet).

I thought they would display it without the helmet during the comic con. I think it´s a cool adition, but I would definitely leave her without it. The unpainted prototype had a pretty good head sculpt. The cape doesn´t really add much for me either, but it´s definitely removable and I think it looks better in person than in pictures actually.

This piece is definetly on my radar. I like it a lot.
Art direction and execution look really good imo.

Helmet version is totally ff. I don't like it at all. Really bad and doesn't fit to a wonder woman statue in my eyes, as the head is one of the main reasons of beauty on her.
Anyway the non helmet version is good, so overall this statue has potential.

I think this will look much better without the helmet. Otherwise it is awesome.
