I thought I will have preordered this one too in a heartbeat, because the figure is not too cheesy like most of the bishoujo line (it would have been my first mostly because of that) and also I really love that new costume, very original and colorful for this character, that is a welcome wind of change compared to her mercenary uniform she was wearing for decades now.

But since the first time I saw the blue color, it started bothering me and now the dark grey in the front instead of the white, I mean why ???? It's a recent costume and it has always been colored the same way if I'm not mistaken, I really don't understand this art direction decision.

And now my husband made these 2 modified versions with the right colors under Photoshop, one with the smooth white front and the other with a textured one (the 2 variants in the comics), and it's pushing me away even more from this piece, because with the right color scheme, it was simply stellar for me compared to the official pictures.
Yeah the grey threw me off, I was aware of the costume and was wondering why it wasn't a silver/pearl white instead. Not sure if they thought it may have been too much or we should just be taking this with a pinch of salt due to it being a prototype.

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

DeepDiscount will be my new place for bishoujos, so long as these pre-orders are actually fulfilled. Those prices are great! I got Dom and Scarlett. Plus a bunch of other stuff on this sale.

Do any of you have any experience on shipping to Canada from DeepDiscount? Was wondering if its decently priced. Right now for me, its either AmiAmi for around $120 or ~$72 + shipping + import from DeepDiscounts. Wondering if DeepDiscounts would still save me.

Oh NVM, just found out on the site. Its $6 lol. DeepDiscount it is!!

That paint looks slick AF with the gloss and metallic accents. Love it! And I know it's weird, but I frickin' adore that base. Simple, small, but unique to the character. That's a home run for me.

I agree but doesn’t look like they carry all of them. No Catwoman for example. They also have the DC Bombshells but not at crazy low prices but lower than preorder prices over at BBTS.

So I am about to place the order with DeepDiscounts, but I was wondering if they require you to pay now for the pre-order or at the time of shipment?

EDIT: I am asking for purchasing with Paypal.
