I preferred the long haired hot-shorts & small "S" on boob version of Supergirl from the 70s/80s.  I didn't much like the Olivia Newton John "let's get physical" headband version that was killed in Crisis.

I liked the animated-style costume that came to Supergirl late in the Peter
David series, but I prefer the peasant-blouse-and-hot-pants version from
the 1970's.

Get rid of the Marvel Family-esque yellow trim on her cape and I'd be very happy with Supergirl's current look.

It's John Byrne's fault... I finally got my Ame-Comi Wonder Woman and Cheetah figures!!  The Wonder Woman is okay, but the Cheetah is FANTASTIC!!!!!

Glad to have contributed to your addiction, Marc -- but wrong thread! This
is strictly for the Eaglemoss lead figures. You want the Statues & Action
Figures thread.

UGH!  Sorry, JB!! 

And not to waste a post, I have a question about the Eaglemoss lead figurines: on the figurines like Wonder Woman and Catwoman, where there is a relatively thin piece of lead denoting the lasso and whip respecitvely.  Does anyone find they have to do any straightening out of the lead?  Or, if it arrives a little bent, do you keep it that way?  Is there any great risk of the lead snapping if you do try to straighten a piece out?

Thanks!

I have had to straighten Mystique's gun and Kraven's spear, with no damage.

No bendage on any of the DC figures yet.
