DC COLLECTIBLES NEW 52 WONDER WOMAN


Wonder Woman first saw publication on 1941 in All Star Comics number 8. She was created by William Marston. In the resent reboot of DC comics called The New 52, Wonder Woman was among the titles to be included. She also appears as a founding member of the New 52 Justice League.

Diana Princess of the amazons lived in the island of Themyscira. She is a fierce warrior skilled in combat and in addition to her skills she has several powerful weapons at her disposal. Among her equipment is the magic Lasso of Truth, anyone bound by the lasso is bound to speak only the truth and the lasso is unbreakable. And her signature bracelets which can deflect bullets and is said to be unbreakable. Diana also posses super human strength and agility. Outside her homeland Diana is known as The Wonder Woman.

Excellent face for Wonder Woman sculpted by Jack Mathews.
 
 
Diana’s only accessory is her sword.
She can be seen in comic books using this sword quite often.
 
 
Close up of her hand and sword.
Note the finger nails with red nail polish. A nice touch added to our heroine.
 
 
Her Lasso of Truth. The lasso was molded so it can’t be removed. I was a bit disappointed here; I prefer the gold thread used in other Wonder Woman figures.

This Wonder Woman figure depicting the New 52 look is a must have for Wonder Woman fans and Justice League collectors alike.

 
Aside from the lasso, I liked the figure. The sculpt was great and the paint applications are spot on. Nice job on this figure DC.
