Not at all. What's important is that a female figure resembles the person it portrays. This figure looks like Brie Larson in a suit, as it should. Her body looks like that.

I don't want to imply that that's what you meant to say, but if a collector on an internet toy forum writes "female figures should look feminine" it translate into "boobs and butt aren't big enough, waist is too big" to me.

Why should this be a thing? Can't a toy company whose main deal is accuracy portray a character accurately? Is your need for a "feminine" figure more important? I don’t think so.

I'd rather get figures that portray body shapes in a realistic way. That doesn’t mean I'm not down for feminine looking figures, if the character really has big breasts and a wasp waist then the figure should mirror that. But don’t artificially enhance a woman’s features just so that her plastic clone looks "feminine".

Let’s look at the flipside: If they made a figure of a character like – let’s say the Riddler from Batman. A very average body build, slender and tall. Would you like to have a Riddler figure that looks like Arnold Schwarzenegger? Because a male figure should look "masculine", right? What’s more masculine than muscles on top of muscles? And then you would say that that figure is garbage because when did the Riddler ever look like that. By the way, I’m looking forward to someone posting a comic book panel with a buff Riddler, it has to have happened over the years I’m sure. But you guys get the point I’m trying to make here.

Anyways, just my opinion on the matter, you’re all free to like or dislike the figure for your own reasons. Just think about how we’re all talking about a person here before you drop stuff like "the figure looks hotter than her real counterpart".
