Red raptor is fine, IMO. When it was brown, it blended in too much with her brown outfit. At least there's some contrast now. From what I recall in the Frank Cho comic run, they were often red anyway.
Re: Yamoto Toys USA gets DC License?
Yeah, I know it's based on the artwork but that open hand kinda looks awkward. They should have just put the sword in her hand and be done with it. Either that or let her grip the dangling end of the lasso with that hand. Otherwise, I still like the sculpt...
Re: Sideshow Announcing new Premium Art Prints collection
Finally a Dynamite character. Good to see Vampirella in the mix. Hope Red Sonja's not too far behind. I'm in for all three again this time.
I can honestly say I've considered using some RPs on the Arkham Joker just because i really want a 1/4 scale Joker in my collection and the original Joker PF is pretty much out of my range at this point. Mark Hamill's version of the Joker in the Arkham games and BTAS is probably my favorite...
I like your train of thought. I'm on the hook for 7 more PF's and two comiquettes myself. I'm considering canceling one of the PF's (Boba Fett) and going with the 1/4 Hot Toys Fett just because I'm much more confident that the HT version's QC will be superior.
I'm with you on Gaming Heads...
As a fan of Batman and the Arkham games, this one and the Joker are going to be tough to resist. However, when I look at my Keaton PF which is a great piece for $400 with its elaborate Batcave base and similar mixed media cape then compare it to this Arkham PF...I'm really having a hard time...
Yeah, I think I prefer the regular on Phoenix Archer as well. The darker hair, gold bow and shoes look better to me overall. Although the gold/black paint app on the exclusive's base is rather nice.
Athena looks pretty good. I was getting ready to pick up Hera soon until I read about this other...
