I hope Batgirl has as many switchout options as Catwoman. I would gladly pay 400 for THAT Batgirl PF with 2 switchout heads and a switchout hand...

Sadly I think it will still be priced the same as Catwoman, just fewer options..

 

[JediSword]

Yeah really for me, it all comes down to pricing for Emma. Same was said for Jean. I would only pay maybe 250 tops on each.

Also I think Batgirl might be cheaper than 400, I think only because Catwoman is the only 400, and you have to consider she comes with a COH even on the regular. So I can see production cost going up. Batgirl, probably not as much. Maybe same as HQ?

Emma's a pass for me, yeah she has all the parts in the right places and all and even with a COH its still teetering a lot on the slutty side for my taste

Me too but I'm married. I still get the ladies, but Emma is sorta pushing it. I could get it if I REALLY wanted her, but I don't REALLY want her Lol

That's cool. Whatever works for you personally is all good. I'm married too (10 years). I have 2 boys as well (7 & 5 yrs old). My wife has no issues with any of the pieces I pick up. She doesn't have a jealous bone in her body and couldn't care less about how scantily clad some of my statues are. It may help that she keeps herself in great shape and is 12 years younger than I am. Either way, I pick up whatever I like and have no problems with the wife.

Lmfao. You had me at 12 years younger that you. I wouldn't mind if my wife was 19 Lol. Mine is in amazing shape too and i usually get the ones that remind me of her. I got Red Sonja and Catwoman like that (what woman Wouldn't want WW though). I could get this too but in just don't love it enough man. Lol I'm sure your boys don't mind either

Personally I think the DC line is overrated. There is a lot that could b better

I'm curious if your views would be different if instead of boys you had daughters?

Maybe. But I guess we'll never know. I'm done having kiddies and 2 boys is what I was blessed with. I'm man enough to admit I have double standards sometimes.

I am man enough to admit I actually like the Jean and I am happy to have her on order

My thing is, I love the regular portrait over the ex. I don't know why, but if I had the funds, and get the chance, I probably would snag a reg eventually. IF I get Emma, I'd hate to be without a pair.

For me, its a classic Jean in the 90's. Not much you can do with that. She isn't supposed to be sexed up like Vampirella or Red Sonja or even Catwoman/Harley. Not sure what everyone is complaining about I do agree the reg portrait is just fine

For me it's pricing and simplicity.

I think the DC bases are super simple, but it's the designs around the base that gives it a good feel.

Now my thing is that I also collect(ed) the Cover Girls and Bombshell, and all have simple base with just a name plate. Now those are 100 dollar statues. Now then I meet Jean and Emma, some fine looking statues in my book, but nearly 400 dollars each with a super simple base.

If they kept her as is, for the price of 250; fine. But if it kept the same price, I expect something to go with the base.

I think Jean is great, and yeah you can't sex her up like others, but some things like giving her eyes, or work the hair a bit more; are fair things for people to criticize.


All and all, Jean isn't eradicated in my "Completely Pass" section. She is more likely than others to be purchased.

 

[nemenforcer]

I agree pricing should be cheaper but I think we all know that aint gonna happen.

Hopefully she turns out good. The girls from Xmen have been so inconsistent

 

[Spidey976]

Has there ever been one XMen woman PF that wasn't just riddled with problems???

I think Storm looks really good but she's not part of the Lee lineup.
