Hair looks much better than I was expecting! Very happy with how this turned out. InArt will doubtless produce a stronger likeness to Gal but I'm happy with this until that figure arrives 2-3 years from now.

As much as I like my WW84 figure I don't feel the need for both so probably move that one on.
 
Seems pretty great!

Not a fan of the hair at all really lol. I will say its a lot more fine and less reflective than the past garbage, but that hairline is very unnatural and its still wayyy too clumped together. Should have more individual strands and curls, this just looks like the same technique they used with the old stuff.
 
This is my issue. I feel like the hair and body on this look great, but I feel a distinct lack of Gadot in the sculpt (to the point where seeing no mention of her name and how they marketed it as WB 100 merch along with the weird blue and gray Batman had me wondering if they somehow couldn’t use her likeness). I’m definitely curious what IA could do with her…
It does seem very strange that the Batman one looks nothing like Affleck whereas this one does look like Gadot. Neither of them carry the “Authentic likeness” credit in the specs so I’m not sure how they can legally justify what they are doing.

Found this random photo and posting for no good reason lol

With Gal, maybe it's because she's in the middle of negotiations with WB? She still hasn't confirmed she's done with the part, which could explain why HT used her likeness for this but didn't mention her name. Gunn's already stated that other heroes will be active when Superman Legacy takes place, so it's possible she sticks around.

Also, InArt needs to give me that smirking Gal sculpt 🤣
 
I noticed that none of the blogger photos makes her neck look long.
Do you think it was just the posing with her head looking down or do you think they did a mod before taking the photos? Or perhaps Hot Toys actually fixed that for this release?

Now I am really hoping my wait list will convert since I was so close to preordering with having her in my cart and it didn’t go through.
 
It's a great figure no doubt. The likeness is better than '84 and of course you get the hair. BUT, personally I feel like it still looks too much like a slightly weathered '84 figure, not to mention those obnoxiously chunky gauntlets. It lacks all the great iron patina and muted tones of the 2017 costume, or the later Snyder film appearances. It just doesn't feel like that darker WW2017/BVS/JL Wonder Woman, the armor is still too pristine and hyper colored, the blues too bright and glittery, the red too flat and primary. It looks too much like a rushed kitbash attempt at an early Wonder Woman figure. But if I can get that head, I will.

Compared to the costume masterpiece of her original appearance...

I noticed that too. I think Hot Toys improved it but we’ll know better once it’s in more hands than just two photographers. Compared to the prototype it sure looks better.

Hard to say. Here it is overlapped with the prototype. It definitely looks to be sitting lower and I also feel like the sculpt isn't as underscaled?

Might have been a case of them showing an early prototype in the announcement photos? There's no way they re-scaled the head up in such a short amount of time since this went up for preorder. You can see the difference in the hair work as well.

I would wager it’s more camera lens and perspective differences between these new shots and the original promos. Plus the larger hairstyle. In some of the new final product photos her head does indeed still look undersized, but I think this figure’s oversized gauntlets and overly large hands don’t help, they make the head look smaller by comparison as well.
