Why So Blu?

DC Collectibles ‘Wonder Woman’ Movie Statue – Amazon Training Outfit (Review)

A few months ago before going under the knife for an invasive hip procedure, I managed to crank out not one, but two exciting DC Collectibles statue reviews of my favorite DC Comics girl, Harley Quinn.  They were both based on the likeness of Margot Robbie from last year’s Suicide Squad.  While the one reviewed here featured the power couple of the Joker and her the one of over here was all Harley, sexy fishnet stockings and all.  For some reason or another those statues were not released until some months after the movie’s premiere last year.  Around the same time DC Collectibles announced their upcoming 1/6 scale statue lineup of 3 Wonder Woman movie statues and 5 from November’s Justice League movie with each of the 5 members receiving their own.  Why I’m telling you all of this is because while the hotly anticipated Wonder Woman film is not dropping in theaters until June 2nd the 3 statues from the film all dropped May 17th.

There’s a great article that talks about the announcement of the three DC Collectibles Wonder Woman movie statues in more detail over here.  Oddly out of the three the one that captures the likeness of sexy Gal Gadot the most is the one not donning the infamous Wonder Woman costume.  Instead she presented as Princess Diana of Themyscira in her Amazon training outfit.  However, beggars can’t be choosers.  Gal still looks hotter than hell in either outfit, but I digress because today we are indeed gathered here to talk about the DC Collectibles Wonder Woman Amazon Training Outfit one.  So let’s briefly chat about the statue itself and then I’ll do the unthinkable that some toy collectors can never bring themselves to do.  We’ll unbox it!

Not that you can’t see for yourself from the pictures, but this statue from the Wonder Woman movie features Princess Diana in her Amazonian training attire holding one of her most iconic weapons, the Lasso of Truth.  Oddly enough at the time of this writing this particular statue is already sold out on DC’s official online storefront here, but rest assured Amazon still has them in stock and at a lower price here.  Like the other two DC Collectibles Suicide Squad statues I mentioned up above that I reviewed this one is also sculpted by artist James Marsano.  Furthermore, this Limited Edition statue is made from cold-cast porcelain and is hand-painted  with full-color decals, imprinted details and a wire lasso.  As stated previously too it’s based on the likeness of Gal Gadot and her appearance in the upcoming Wonder Woman feature film and showcases the 12.5″ figurine standing atop a Wonder Woman movie symbol base.

Now that we pretty much covered everything there is to talk about the statue itself what do you say we unbox it and give this DC Collectibles Wonder Woman movie statue some much needed freedom and most importantly, air!  So follow me down below as I take you through every step of the way in the unboxing of this DC Collectibles Wonder Woman Movie Amazon Training Suit and share with you some of Gal’s best attributes.  Here we go!

Below are all 4 sides of the DC Collectibles Wonder Woman box that holds our Gal Gadot treasure inside.

*

And here’s the top and bottom of the box.  Notice the limited edition of this item on the bottom.  It’s #743 out of 5,000!

*

Now I don’t know about you, but I can’t wait anymore!  Let’s crack this baby open already!

*

As you can see everything is housed securely in a styrofoam enclosure.  The word TOP in the styrofoam should display upwards before carefully cutting the tape around the edges.

*

Wonder Woman in her Amazon Training outfit is housed in its own plastic separate from her base on the right.  Take notice of the peg on the her foot.  That’s obviously how she locks securely into the base.

*

Speaking of the base…here it is!  It’s basically the Wonder Woman movie title logo.

*

Bam!  Here we are!  Putting the pieces together by snapping her foot into the base is a breeze.  Now let’s take a closer look at all the intricacies below.  Check out the character likenesses to Gal in the face.

*

Now what about that lasso of truth.  It’s a bit like wire in the coil part, but overall very soft and fabric-like to the touch.  It’s sort of like a very thin shoelace.

*

 

Let’s take a look behind the scenes here.  LOL.  Notice the intricacy of her braided hair and muscular back.  And we all know how women love their shoes…even Wonder Woman!

*

Let’s get up close and personal real quick.

*

Last but not least I thought it would be cool to show how Wonder Woman’s stature compares to my previous two reviews of DC Collectibles Suicide Squad statues Joker and Harley and Harley solo.  Pretty cool, huh?

*

As with the previous two Harley Quinn DC Collectibles 1/6 scale statues I reviewed I’m also really happy with this DC Collectibles Wonder Woman Movie Amazon Training Suit one.  From the price tag it can be had at (currently sitting around $130 at the time of this writing on Amazon) to the Gal Gadot likeness, overall quality and sculpt of the figure you really can’t ask for anything more.  Can you?  So yeah I had another fun time reviewing this and I’m hoping DC Collectibles sends me some more to chronicle in detail and critique for you all here on our site.  Until then I hope you enjoyed my newest collectible review here on the site and if you’re interested in this limited edition piece, I recommend before it sells out, hit up the link down below and bring this sexy collector statue home today.  Thanks for reading and for your support!
