The MSRP for the Joelle Jones Cover Girls went up by $25 because they went up in scale from 1/8 to 1/7. $125 is also the MSRP of the Bombshells, which have been 1/7 since their start.

(This info is in the OP, btw.)

That sucks because they want go with the size of the others. They might as well up the size a little bit more and just make it a designer statue. I rather have it as a designer statue.

Well, at least they didn't change scales in the middle of a wave. All of the Hughes, Lee, and Artgerm statues were the same scale, and all of the Jones statues are in the same scale. I'm pretty sure that most people display these in wave clusters, and some people only collect certain waves anyway.

I admit I was hoping for an Artgerm Rebirth version (as mistakenly reported by Experience the Wonder) but I guess my Jones Supergirl will need somebody in her scale to shoot the breeze with in the display case, right?

Batgirl can "shoot the breeze".

It's true, and I feel kinda bad because I liked the Artgerm one the most out of all of my Wonder Woman statues for the longest time.

I only have 4 Artgerm Covergirls. And the sell pile is eyeballing them all. I only got the characters I really like but these Joelle Jones ones are sooooo much better.

Where the hell did that Wonder Woman come from? They never showed at any conventions. lol Don't get me wrong, I love surprises. Especially a gorgeous statue like that.

It's up at BBTS, by the way: https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Produ...nDetails/80455
