Is it the pelvic thrust as a young boy bursts onto the scene?

This was the first DC Direct statue I bought, paving the way for many others. I purchased it at a sale for 50% off, but even at full price, it's a great deal. It's not so serious and dramatic like many of the modern statues, just a lot of fun.

I'm not sure what he's supposed to be doing with his left hand, either. Guess we shouldn't PROBE further... don't know what kind of mess we could come up with.

Not to diss you or anything, but to have a wonder woman mini for $ 65,- where srp is only $49,95, doesn't seem like good business to me. Maybe you wanne re-evaluate some of your prices?

And yeah, that is a bad statue.

Love it or hate it, it pretty accurately translates the original cover art. Some minor compromises had to be made to solve the logistics of Robin suspended in mid-leap, but otherwise dead-on.

So, if there's a perceived problem with the statue, it all falls back on the simplistic 1940 artwork that is the source material, not necessarily the piece itself.
