Again, not nessisarily. Unless you happen to be a hulking giant of a man in real life (in which case you'd likely dwarf most men), if you look around you women come in all shapes and sizes, just like men. I've known quite a few who're 5'8"-6'3". Hell, at two of my jobs, I used to have women help *me* get things down off high shelves.
And worked with a couple that i we'd ever gotten into a fight, I'd be pretty sure I'd have gotten stomped. (And I'm average height, and don't get intemedated easily).

Musclemass isn't everything. Just because someone is muscular, does not make them big or tall. Wolverine looks pretty damned off when he's taller than She-Hulk. Just like Wonderwoman standing equal with Golden Age Atom is pretty strange.

So to say "cause she's a girl and girl figures should be much smaller than male ones" is folly, and borderline sexist. Or at least not terribly connected with reality.
There's always going to be exceptions to the rule. And in most cases, women stand equal to most men at least.
I prefer to use DCD's Star Sapphire Wonderwoman in my DCUC Green Lantern display because she's larger than most men as a character, and the DCD is appropriate larger than Mattel's figures.

I stress again, my issue isn't with you're feeling Ivy can be smaller. It's the blanket statement which holds no basis in reality or comics.

If we get Grundy it wont be untill next year as you can see now we just now are about to get Killer Crock and its been a year at least. So the Deluxe sized figures always take the longest to make.

Which DCD Poison Ivy do you have? Also what color do you prefer her skin tone Green or normal?

The best one in that category is the DCD Secret Files one then.

Whatever not gonna argue on your warped vision of reality where Woman are on average the exact same size as men (or in your case bigger). Its not at all sexist to say generally woman are smaller than men because they are. Look at average heights in every country around the world women will always be shorter.

So... your icon... would Batman be 7'5" tall, or would Harley there be 4'5"?
'Cause there's almost a two foot difference there. And I'm warped.

Human females average 5'4"-6'. Human males average... guess what? 5'4"-6'. And just like men, there are women above that mark. And just like women, there are men below that. Yeah, women are always tiny.
I'll just be going back to reality now. Enjoy yourself.

That would make Batman about 6'5 and harley say 5'6 bending down to about 5'. So that difference makes alot of sense. As most male superheroes are white (Not all by any means) the Average white male in America is actually 5'10 and the Average white female is 5'4-5'5.
Sure men and women range from all sizes but judging by the pixie thin female superheroes I see in comics and the Mr Olympia sized male superheroes I see in comics. Yes all superhero females are much tinier than their male counterparts. Also most female superheros are sexy and I don't think a 6'5 female would be pixie thin and sexy. So yes go back to world of comic books you're living in and tell the 6'5 Superwoman and Poison Ivy I said hello.

But I'm done with this wall.



And when did I ever insult you? That's just out of line and uncalled for.

I'm not *on* anything, and accusations like that are out of line. It is a huge insult.
I was pointing out the unrealistic size difference between the two in the image, which in real life would mean she's a hobbit, or he's some goliath that dwarfs Superman. Like I said, the image has almost a two foot size difference between them, when the actual size difference would be about five or six inches.
