Statue Gotham city garage: Catwoman statue

[dcmarv]

only thing they have going for this is Gentle Giant Studios' involvement. But they're not gonna get produced with GG's paint app standards, I think.

I think this is a cool statue with great design. It is not the standard look of the rogue girls, adding a certain realism and shows off how strong their characters actually are.

DC Collectibles is starting up a new line (and it may be short) based on the Dustin Nguyen "Gotham Girls Motors" art.

Catwoman is first!
Measures approximately 8.5" Tall x 15.5" Wide - $299.95 US

Not a bad concept at all. Actually, Cat Woman is the best looking of the three.

 

[jpsarri]

Wow this is awesome! Catwoman looks really cool. I just wish it wasn't so expensive I love how they are making all these unique lines.

True to that. At least DC is trying to come up with new ideas.

 

[jpsarri]

100% Pass. Nothing about that looks good.

Feeling a little judgmental aren't you? Better than Hathaway's version if you ask me.

 

[jpsarri]

8in tall sitting down and 15in long is pretty big to me... but I don't own any large statues...

I was just happy to see something different.

It is decent size. Goes along well with the regular DC Collectibles scale.

BBTS already has it on preorder for $250.

You never have to pay full-price for DC Collectibes if you don't want to.

Still overpriced by $75, IMO.

Price is my only point of contention with DC Collectibles. For that amount of money I can buy bigger scale statues from other companies. $200 should be the most (with shipping included).

To be honest, I have never had problems with DC paint apps. GG on the other hand

I totally agree.

Do you work for DC? Lol.

problem I see with this is catwoman does not really look like catwoman. This looks like any biker chick riding a bike.

 

[floreairfoot]

Think of it as Selina Kyle riding a bike.

Since she's not wearing her Catwoman costume, you can't really expect her to look like "Catwoman". Her helmet does have ears though.

Really? The choice in wheels is a bit weird, but aside from that it screams Catwoman to me, especially modern incarnations like the New 52 Catwoman. If you want to see someone strictly lacking any qualities of Catwoman, look no further than The Dark Knight Returns Catwoman, a character so distant from the comic book incarnation it's hard to think of her as being any real form of representation.

Then again, same with Bane

Agreed. Not a whole lot about that statue says Catwoman at all.

I agree with you. I think that's what make this one's unique. It's like being a geek but doesn't look geeky.

couldn't agree more.

 

[floreairfoot]

I'm very impressed; this is one of the few times a finished piece looks better than the concept art!

Love the dirt/dust and tire tracks!!

 

[batsheva]

Awesomenesss!! I'm glad I pre-ordered it.

 

[jpsarri]

I'm all for it. DC has a hold of my wallet (and my dreams) nowadays.

DC Collectibles has been FAR more interesting than Sideshow, lately.
