This picture makes me think we're getting 2 Armor swaps. This is the best case scenario for everyone if Inart is only doing 1 Gal Wonder Woman release. Those that wanna run the Muted colors from BvS can and those that want the brighter colors can as well. Plus the Armor to the left is brighter/colorful than the promo image on the right and that's not even a question. Can't wait for Gal & Affleck to go up so I can finish The Trinity.

Does anyone actually want diecast armour parts? I certainly don’t. No benefits since they always seem to come out overly thick, heavy, lacking in detail, and have no leeway.

Why though?
Really depends who the figure is but if its a choice id rather have die-cast where possible because for mainly sturdiness, durability, premium feel, no colour degradation (in plastic), and more bang for buck. I especially would like it for armour pieces, just like HT's General Grievous, iron-Man, Armored Batman. For IA the Nazgul and hopefully this WW armour pieces.

I'm not a big fan of diecast parts. The individual accessory parts do feel impressive out of the box and in-hand - making me feel like the purchase was really worth the money - but tend to be troublesome when applied to and used with the figure.
The weight of diecast is just out of scale with the other figure parts, like the underlying plastic body that has to hold all the weight. Most figures aren't even built well enough in the arm articulations to hold up a simple metal sword; a sword being one of the few parts that I'd like to have in diecast.
For the most part, diecast hasn't made for a better figure purchase, or been an incentive for premium pricing. Well made and nicely painted plastic parts, weighted proportionally with the rest of the figure, are just fine for display purposes. I don't play with figures enough that the tactile sensation of diecast makes a difference beyond the unboxing stage. The exception would be something like diecast Iron Man, or other robot-like figures, where the entirely of the figure is built and constructed with some percentage of metal parts. Add-on accessories or armour plates don't work as well.

lol as a Saint Seiya Myth Cloth collector, when all figures come with metal armor similar to WW I can say that's a pretty bad idea. Heavy and hard move....and those figures are 1/12. i just imagine the weight of a WW figure all die cast, sounds like a pretty bad idea.
