Fumikane is actually drawing a grown woman for once?

If you consider a 17-years old looking girl to be a grown woman.

The body could be a 17 year old. The face looks like a 15 year old to me. Not horrible or creepy, just a bit off. Like it is Wonder Woman's six year younger sister.

Otherwise, it looks like an ok figure, for the detail and extras.

Although, if it has to relate to Wonder Woman, I'd really prefer another A-Ko figure. Very Happy Wink

*sarcasm*
Fumikane drawn a lot of really grown woman, actually. Minna, Sakamoto, Gundula from Strike Witches, or Bismarck and Graf Zeppelin from KC...

If this was a statue instead of an action figure, I might have considered it.

Closest thing to this in statue form is the Bishoujo statue, though it's not all that close.

This isn't really figure anyway, it's a model kit. My first reaction when I saw it last week was "I want this", but I know I'll be disappointed when what comes out of the box doesn't look as nice. It's pre-painted, but other figures in this line don't really stand up to this in paint quality so I suspect it's been painted by a professional modeler. Going to wait until I see how this looks "raw" built from the box without painting.
