As much as I love me some Catwimmins, I did chuckle when I first saw this revealed and thought to myself “another Catwoman before another Batwoman?”.

Ok, I can understand Sideshow wanting to have a popular character in stock. But why all of them at once? It's just a joke at this point.

If they’re just thinking about getting into the hobby a lot of them will settle for buying something In Stock that they may not like as much as a 9 month preorder. And then on top of it they’ll end up preordering the original piece they wanted anyway later on or once it’s readily available. People tend to spend big chunks of money that they get right away and on something that they can have right away. If sideshow didn’t pump out these characters regularly they’d all be sold out before being shipped out. . . I don’t know just my thoughts. I think they like having a website with statues in stock basically is all it is.
Looks like we have someone that gets it. So a casual with disposable income comes to the site and if some had it their way that person would not see Catwoman, Wonder Women, Superman, Batman, Venom, Carnage, Joker, Harley etc etc. in sideshows premiere format cause what? They made one 5 years ago? If these PF's did not sell trust Sideshow would not stock them and keep remaking them. Heck if these characters weren't viable Marvel/DC wouldn't make 300 different versions of them and stick them in every story they can think of. There will be all new characters but the heavy hitters will be made every year.

Just flooding the market with the same characters repeatedly lol

But it’s definitely part of their plan.

Just sucks if you want a Nightwing…

Have to see back and switch outs before really making a decision.

Oh … and if it’s mixed media… probablyyyyy going to look the other way.

There is nothing here that hasn't been done to death before. There are not only countless Catwoman statues out there, but this isn't even one of the good ones

Definitely looks sculpted

I think sideshow are getting away from fabric altogether, the days of the old style catwoman are gone

Exactly. If you're going to keep rehashing the same 15 characters over and over, at least try and make each one better than the last. This piece is kind of hot garbage from what I've seen so far of it.
