Good Smile Company - Nendoroid Wonder Woman: Hero's Edition

I'll start off by saying that I'm a nature photographer and I've photographed many wild animals and native wildflowers in SoCal. I recently started turning my lens toward toys and collectibles after watching a number of Netflix documentaries on the subject. I now own several Nendoroid figures and--long story short--the Wonder Woman Nendoroid is not up to par. Here's the good: The sculpt and small details are immaculately done. She looks great with a borrowed face plate and a pose that sticks. Here's the rest: When I first tried to purchase this Wonder Woman Nendoroid, it was sold out at another store. I was delighted to see it was in stock at Best Buy. I ordered it. It arrived. I opened it... and was immediately disappointed. The Wonder Woman Nendoroid has multiple points of articulation, but the arms hardly stay in place when posed. You can lift her arm up and it promptly falls back down. I thought that, maybe, I just got a lemon... It's a good thing I bought two, BUT, the second one was only slightly better. The arms would fall out of position shortly after posing. What's worse, the shield freely rotates after you "snap" it onto Wonder Woman's arm. It is impossible to pose. It's practically at the mercy of gravity. It just falls. You can try to get it to stay in place by sliding it further up her arm to a spot where there's good tension. After that, you have to hurry and shoot your photos before it slips off. I get that Wonder Woman is a weapon and she fights a lot, but please... give her at least one happy or content-looking face plate. I had to borrow one from another figure to make her look more photogenic. I would gladly deal with the serious looking face plates if the arms and shield weren't so loose fitting. In case you're wondering, most of my comparisons are to the Overwatch D.Va Nendoroid. D.Va's arms and legs hold their position and she has far more versatile face plates.

There isn't much to say she is basic nendoroid so good accessories, good articulation for an chibi figure. So if you like wonder woman and big head chibi characters its a great pick up.

I have been collecting Super hero nendoroid series and they are really awesome. I bought this Wonder Woman and I really love the details. You should get this if you are a fan of wonder woman!

This is a very cute figure. Perfect for any Wonder Woman fan

This thing is great! I like that BestBuy started carrying Nendoroids!
