I really like this statue, have to exercise restraint as doubling down beyond Kara and Diana is dangerous...

Great looking statue, base is kinda boring but sexy pose. Wish I was a DC fan.

My only concern is that slightly open mouthed portrait. The factories don’t exactly have a great track record with getting that right.

On the subject of the cape. I see no improvement over the cape on the previous PF. Given she is standing on a wooden construction, the cape pose seems over animated. A sculpted cape would have been better. This is one of those pieces that i neither dislike or find amazing. At the same time, it is possibly the best new female 1/4 PF reveal at the Con.

Gotham City is predominately portrayed as dark, oppressive, cold and dangerous. From this perspective alone, the choice of costume seems counterintuitive. Imagine if Leia decided to wear her Jabba costume while on Hoth....

But in the end, maybe it's just better to, as you say, suggest the costume isn't for me, and to let those who do enjoy it continue to do so without my negative opinions
If Psylocke could rock the swimsuit look in the snow without hypothermia I bet Leia could too…would make for a popular PF if not for only one aspect….

not to harp on the whole revisit thing again but of all the characters to revisit why huntress? shes like a c-list character and not even a different costume? deathstroke is in dire need of a revisit, thats one that people would actually cheer for (if done right)

I agree, out of all the Bat related characters she at this point is pretty much useless. The only reason I can think of to re-do her is because some dudes like skimpy outfitted women statues and she fits the bill.
