    Statue Prime 1: Wonder Woman (Lynda Carter)

    Wow. Mine's arriving tomorrow...

    Statue Prime 1: Wonder Woman (Lynda Carter)

    Ha! So now estimated arrival is next month, October, or the following month, November. 2023 looms closer than ever... and the suspense builds.

    Statue Prime 1: Wonder Woman (Lynda Carter)

    Sideshow is now saying it will arrive this month (September), or next month. That means, if we're lucky, before the end of 2022. Let's hope we get lucky.

    Statue Prime 1: Wonder Woman (Lynda Carter)

    We should probably consider ourselves lucky if we get the statue this year.

    PCS 1/4 Pumpkinhead

    Got mine... I'm very satisfied. The statue has a lot of power and presence. True, it's a more pumped-up Pumpky than we're used to, an "interpretation," but it still commands an onlooker's interest, and the sculpting detail is remarkable. Although expensive, it's ultimately too significant a...

    PCS 1/4 Pumpkinhead

    Thanks, Heavy Metal Spike! I deleted my post because it seemed too self-serving. By the way, isn't this new P statue expected shortly, around June-August? Any word about where things stand?

    Statue Prime 1: Wonder Woman (Lynda Carter)

    This is as basic Photoshop 101 as it gets, so don't expect miracles. That said, simply take that forced curl away from the sides of WW's mouth, and voila! The face portrait of this statue becomes a way better adaptation of the photo it's taken from, imo. It seems Lynda's less friendly, more...

    Statue Prime 1: Wonder Woman (Lynda Carter)

    I think the likeness was hit, then missed a tad when the sculptor tried to force Lynda Carter's neutral mouth expression into a smile. This made the mouth just a little too wide at the sides, which also had the effect of making the character seem younger, more adolescent. In retrospect, they...

    Statue Prime 1 Studio - Dawn of Justice- 1:2 Wonder Woman Statue

    Re: Prime 1 Studio - Dawn of Justice- Wonder Woman Statue Aren't the face sculpts for these more sophisticated statues derived from 3D scans of the actual actors? Always thought of that process as the equivalent of a "life mask" pulled from a plaster cast mold of the performer... in other...

    Statue Tweeterhead, DST 1966 Batgirl statues comparison review

    Excellent analysis, Michael! Thanks for posting.

    Tweeterhead BATGIRL Maquette Diorama

    Haha... thought that might be the case! Thanks! Still, that Amazon listing should be corrected, for everyone's sake. Since the "BG diorama" is being offered with the blue-painted BG as the product's official picture, some buyers may be understandably disappointed when their item arrives in...

    Tweeterhead BATGIRL Maquette Diorama

    Knew I saw this Blue Bat somewhere! Confusion reigns... if you go on Amazon right now, you can buy the Tweeterhead Batgirl "statue" in the purple incarnation we've all been receiving and posting images of. But, inexplicably, there is also a Tweeterhead Batgirl "diorama" available, with orders...

    Tweeterhead BATGIRL Maquette Diorama

    Beautiful photos, dd... Mine looks identical. The Batty really adds something to the experience, with the blue pedestal/gold award combo most pleasing.

    Tweeterhead BATGIRL Maquette Diorama

    Reflecting this confusion over the proper color of BG's costume (blue, blue-purple or just plain purple?), keep in mind that the show's producers couldn't make up their minds either. In the wildest example of this, "purple, inward-eared" Batgirl is fired upon by an alvino raygun, but when she's...

    Tweeterhead BATGIRL Maquette Diorama

    The top of Batgirl's mask was almost always purple... even King Tut identifies it as purple in an episode's dialogue. But the body costume started out with more blue in it. It seems likely there may have been two body costumes, one more purplish than the other. And BG's ears were sometimes...

    Tweeterhead BATGIRL Maquette Diorama

    The transparency that was originally used to make the above print was slightly faded. Check out the same image (or at least part of it) after color correction:

    Tweeterhead BATGIRL Maquette Diorama

    Almost all Yvonne Craig Batgirl items go crazy with the purple body suit. DC must have decided that's the official color of her TV costume, even though it was actually blue-purple. Here's the bendable BG for a comparison:

    Tweeterhead BATGIRL Maquette Diorama

    Just received the statue directly from Tweeterhead and it is gorgeous (sorry about the absence of pics)! It came complete with the Batty award and the award stand, along with a facsimile Yvonne Craig signature certificate, which I've posted here. This is truly a quality piece, and the only...

    Tweeterhead BATGIRL Maquette Diorama

    Okay, some good news: looks like my statue is being delivered tomorrow between 2:30 and 6:30, and I'm a guy who ordered directly from Tweeterhead the first day (which means I get a Batty, I believe). Must apologize in advance about not being able to provide pics, but I'll try to be very...
