And here are the pics, I really wish I got into the DC Bish sigh. https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?...4123811&type=1

I can't quite decide if this is one that I'll be picking up or not.
The upcoming She-Hulk and Anna Williams (from Tekken) Bishoujo statues definitely take priority over Zatanna, but she is tempting.

Yeah, currently, I'm only a casual DC fan, and in the past I was an on-again-off-again DC reader, so my DC Bishoujo collection is pretty small.
However, the two that I have, Supergirl and Batgirl (the black & gold variant), both look incredible.

I kinda regret passing on Power Girl, and I refuse to pay the current price of around $200 for her, so I may have to get Zatanna to make up for that.

I have heard that the childlike face is a Japanese cultural influence.

Yeah, the Bishoujo statues are based on artwork from various manga artists, so the figures have a strong manga/anime look to them.
It works great on video game-based figures, like the Street Fighter and Tekken characters, but on some statues, like certain Marvel and DC characters, that "cutesy" look sometimes looks awful.
I actually passed on the Star Wars Bishoujo statues because, personally, I don't think that the manga-inspired look looks good on those characters at all.

WTF, why is PG worth that much? Yeah I kind of regret getting the DC ones every so often haha. Heck if I could afford it I would just collect also all DC, SF and Tekken Bish statues but alas Marvel only. Any ways yes you should get the Zatana one she's actually a unique character that they've done. Also I wish Marvel would do more villains besides Mystique.

Yup and being that I'm Asian gives me more an excuse to collect these.

Just a small update, Zatanna will include a gold "Z" emblem base.
