Zimm's Two Cents Points in Favor
  • Great Colors
  • Good clean sculpture with nice detail.
Points Against
  • I'm not a big fan of the base. It looks pretty and all, but I don't like how she is missing half of her body in it. (Just me).
  • Face looks to be a little more 'wanting' then warrior.
Recommendation: Pass. Nothing really POPS in this statue to make me want to purchase it. If want a Wonder Woman piece, the Wonder Woman vs. Ares piece looks to still be available.

Robert's Two Cents Points in Favor
  • Great Colors
  • I like but don't love the base.
  • I like the face. It has the innocense of the TV show Wonder Woman. Lynda Carter was one of the first loves of my life. Of course I was two when the show started.
Points Against
  • The base does make this look like a bust more than a statue.
  • Price is a bit high for a oversized bust.
Recommendation: Pass. I like the face and body, but it really does remind me of the recent series of busts by DC Direct. For $200 I can get a statue I like much, much more.
