5200 to be exact , they might be releasing them in waves... I noticed WW and Poison Ivy are back up for sale on DC's website.

Yup; just wait. I doubt they have produced all of the 5200 yet. Worst case DCD will have them on their site and they have sales and shipping deals all the time. They also sell pieces that are "sold out" to retailers via the distributors.

sorry for bumping an old thread. is it safe to assume that the whole 5200 run are all in the market already? meaning no chance to order one at a less inflated price as in eBay?

The artist who sculpted these, said that the full 5200 of Harley sold out in a month, so unless DC releases a 2.0 Harley Bombshell you will probably be out of luck... The other bombshells have taken longer to sell out... But given the rising prices on Poison Ivy, WW & Supergirl on Ebay, I'm guessing there also sold out now..

Thanks for the info. I'm not too interested in the Christmas re-deco version though...

I would check the sale forum on here from time to time... I sold my Harley Bombshell to a member here for $160 and it was in the for sale forum for over a week before anyone contacted me about her.. I still have Supergirl Bombshell left

I've seen photos on ebay of the Holiday version and I think I am going to skip it. The paint is horrible.
Looks like it was rushed and painted by a 3-year-old. They probably wanted it out by the Holidays.

If that just wasn't a bad one or too close photos then I'm out as well. The quick Midtown video of her didn't look too bad. But $100+ for some sloppy paint is a no go.

The paint application on mine is great; nice and tight for the most part with clean details.

Having said that, I feel where you are coming from Dechirico as the paints themselves seem cheap and not very rich. I too sense DCD's rush for a holiday shipment. In all honesty they should have had these done months ago as it was a repaint, for the most part, solicited some time ago.

In all honesty this is DCD. I will almost guarantee that you will see her resolicited next year in some way shape or form.

My Harley bombshell came out well, except for the cracked nameplate. I think it was return I picked up from BBTS because the nameplate was cracked all the way through, but seemed to be glued back in place. I snapped it off at the break and tried to re-glue it but the crack is still noticeably there. I only kept her because of the rarity of the figure. I may have to do my own decal for the nameplate and repaint it.

You can see the crack by the 'H'.
