In that picture it looks like Batgirls left leg is broken... A lot of weird twists in the body...

Yup, just like broken elbow Bishoujo Huntress and spaghetti leg Bishoujo Psylocke.

She's reaching across her body with her left hand to get into a bag on her right hip. The bent left leg and twist look natural to me. But I am sure you will not agree, so I will say no more about it.

Nothing in that picture looks as bad as that Huntress Bishoujo. I PO'd that one before I noticed it. It's so, so bad in person. LOL

I have to wonder if maybe the factory workers were so distracted by her chest that their fingers slipped when assembling the statue.

Batgirl and Ivy ARE the ones I'm tempted by. The other two don't really scream Cho to me.

I think Harley is the best of the four shown so far, and it matches the Frank Cho-drawn cover very well. Unfortunately, the collar has too many tassels.

I think the face is way off (not to mention the head position, losing all of Cho's playfulness).

Granted, it's hard to capture. I'm not even sure if I think the production Batgirl had managed it.

I know everyone went nuts over the Frank Cho Wonder Woman sculpted by Jonathan Matthews, but that was clearly an exception. These statues are proof that Cho and Matthews are not a good pairing. Plus like Augen has written, not every character needs to be drawn in the Frank Cho style.

DC would be smart to just downscale the WW and call it a day.

I didn't think Wonder Woman sufficientl evoked Cho either once I saw it in store.

Someone's gotta be able to do his work justice.

I'd love a Brandy, but at this point I don't even care who the character is.

I think they should just bring back Joelle Jones.
