Mattel's WWE lines never cease to amaze me. I did I review back in March highlighting a few of the figures I've picked up over the years. The quality and pricepoint of these figures surpasses all the other Mattel brands out there (in my humble opinion). The plastic, paint, and articulation is always consistently top-notch and the sculpts always look really great. I only wish I cared about wrestling one iota. If the ladies produced in the DC Universe line used these bucks instead of the waifish toothpick-armed heroines we are bombarded with, I would be ecstatic. I'm sure I mentioned this in my previous review as well, but this line is literally the only series that can successfully pull off expressive faces on its figures. The stoic-faced standard can fit just about any character out there - and the thought of a smiling or winking sculpt usually makes be cringe in aprehension - But all of these figures are infused with a personality and quirkiness that is unparalleled in the action figure world. That is why I am glad to buy these scarce ladies whenever I see them. The fact that they still retail for 10 or 11 bucks is just an added bonus.
My only problem with the sculpt is that her upper lip seems a little deep, which gives her a little bit of a shadow moustache. But it's not nearly so noticible in person.
Time for a Comparison Pic!
Check out my previous review to see a comparison of all the different Mattel bucks.
Cheers!
