That's a nice Katana statue.

She is, I just dont see the 50s aesthetic in her. I mean, the Bombshells variants are supposed to be a retro-realistic take on each heroine. In this case however she doesnt seem related to that era (though I am not exactly certain how Japan in the 50s was)...

I like her. Think I might need one of them.

Well, she is wearing a very sexy version of the Kimono, Japanese women of the 50th were moving away from Kimono, but it was their traditional dress so it does make sense that Katana would wear that. Having white face paint instead of a mask looks more like Geisha makeup of old, so that make sense too. I think it's very well done.

It looks like a mix of a kimono and a European dress, it's funny the guy complained about the look but had no clue what things looked like then.
