There's a member on here who modifies statues and think he has six of the 1/4 Power Girl statues and I completely understand it.

Speaking of PG, I hope they revisit her someday in a flying or action pose. I sold my PF shortly after receiving it. There was something off to me and I was never happy with it on my shelf.

After seeing the new Red Sonja, I think Steve Lord would make a phenomenal Power Girl.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

If the prototype is anything to go on, there’s probably a S shaped steel rod coming out from the fist that goes up through the arm and into the body. It looks like that may peg into a steel shaft that’s hidden in the saw arm.
If this is the case I can see how you would have to slide the jacket over the full steel shaft then up the arm. Then you would have to attack the saw separately after everything was slid into place.

I don’t think she’s gonna be permanently attached to the saw arm though. To me, it looks like her fist will just key into the center of the blade.

You could have a situation where her gloved hand is permanently attached to the blade, and the key is her wrist (see the Little Mermaid unboxing video for a similar idea).

Her breast were too small.

Another thing I just noticed in the bts pics is that she wasn’t always cut at the waist like I noticed earlier. In one pic where they are painting the yellow, she’s a solid piece and then when they are painting the green you can see she has been cut in half. Just an observation. I assume she’ll be solid when she ships.

Most likely.

How they put together the prototype is most times not the same way they put together the production piece.

And even if she's cut in half coming out of the molds, they probably will permanently fuse both halves together in the production process.
