Damn, now THIS is April. Hopefully it'll be easy to get because the "Bobblehead" one goes for bonkers on the secondary market.

So too does Irma, which surprises me this wasn't a two pack of them. Say with an Irma that was correct with flesh colored legs.

Is this a dig at the no-neck, huge-head version we got before?

Aside from the long neck, I guess it's cool. She'll work as a place holder until the Mirage one comes out. Though, she might be worth it just for the bondage equipment alone.

A baby alien and carnivorous plant are bondage gear?

Oh yeaaah I seriously didn't even think about that, it was the opposite issue last time you're right, maybe NECA took the criticisms too far. Maybe I am now too? lol. It just looks so long!

I'm looking at a lot of her classic cartoon designs and the neck is pretty damn long...the figure looks even slightly longer still. The eyes appear oversized. Small head, big eyes is losing her look.

Pretty picky criticisms meh. Definitely buying it. She didn't have to look precisely like April but it would have been nice just once to get the perfect April!

They could be.

I also want the Maltese Hamster. Just watched that episode the other night and that was the best one so far.

I'm in for this. I hated the original, though I do appreciate how much I could sell her for

The neck doesn't bother me overmuch, my Turtle diorama is quite close to the floor, so I'll be looking down on her anyway.

Chances are this'll be another Aliexpress figure, these are murder to get in the UK.

Neck doesn't bother me at all. She's got cartoon proportions. Why's no one complaining about her insane bust-to-waist-to-hips ratio if proportions seems to be a problem? LOL

It’s about accuracy. Certain cartoon proportions are accurate and some are not in comparison to the source materials. This action figure is a recreation of the 1990’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon April O’Neil. The BWH is accurate to most of the images of her design, probably why I haven’t seen a single person mention this either. The extremely long neck and big eyes are not very accurate based on her average look from the show.

Exactly, that's what I'm saying. The body proportions are exaggerated due to the cartoon including the neck.

Very few images of her have that giraffe neck. Her average neck length is not that long. Where as, her average waist size is that small.

Sorry, but her neck isn't that long in that picture.

It's been close to a month since the reveal. Can't miss this one as it's a great update from the previous April!
The Neca store only shows the batman utility belt. No other updates yet?
