I generally avoid any action figures/statues/busts of Wonder Woman that involve her wielding a sword or axe, but this being Hippolyta, I'll make an exception. Plus it looks like a really nice sculpt.

Like the Power Girl, is this a small figurine? Or something bigger?
Edited to add- Found it. Thanks.

I really like the Hippolyta bust and plan to get it, but Amanda Conner is the
new designer for Series 3 of the Women of the DC Universe line, and it looks
nothing like her art.

Which, for me, is a good thing; that sketch is ugly. This is possibly the first example I've seen where the bust looked better than the concept art.

Hippolyta looks like she's rocking a John Byrne mouth there.
Does this mean the Hippolyta as Wonder Woman in the 1940s thing is canon at DC?

Wouldn't he wonder where her hips are?

I'll be getting the Power Girl as part of the Cover Girls of the DCU line - the Wonder Woman is awesome and I'm really looking forward to the rest.
Q for JB - what's the Wally Wood comment about? I don't know a lot of comics history, and I'm only marginally familiar with Wood. Did he create Power Girl?

Randy Bowen is asking...
Anyone interested in Jubilee or Kitty?
If so:
poses?
costumes?
bubblegum?

Personally, I MIGHT go for Kitty, if she was dressed in the original X-uniform ala JB's Kitty vs. the Alien issue! Jubilee?....Definitely not for me.

The Power Girl I'm surprised to say I actually like, the Hippolyta is just a joke.
