Not nearly as sly and sexy as Selina should be...


I say bring on the Joker gas!

although, to put it all into perspective, you just have to look at the really creepy toybiz Scarlet Witch figure face sculpt. For a lil' figure like Catwoman, I'm happy if the faces look human...

LOL!  Too funny, Dave!  The eyes on the Catwoman figurine are what remind me the most of my old girlfriend (gotta love '80s-style eye makeup!).  Put those eyes on Paige, though . . . EWWW! 

Anime-style Paige is NOT a good thing!

Here is Lex Luthor, next to Iron Man.

You will notice the armor is not THAT shiny, but I think it will be easily fixed.

One again, I regret a huge difference of size between characters : look at Iron Man size next to Lex, Tony is a head shorter even with the helmet on !

Lex has hidden platform shoes.

It's part of his inferiority complex.

See, now, I get Luthor and and extra TwoFace, I pop the head off and plant
Luthor's on Twoface's shoulders, with the suit painted black, and I have "my"
Luthor. Then I take the Luthor armor, pop the head off a spare Superman,
and I have Joel Kent, from GENERATIONS -- and a whole sub-series under
way!

I've seen a Photoshop mock-up of the Luthor in Two-Face's suit and it looked great.

Here we go.  I don't know how easy it would be to lower the other hand and put it in the pocket, so the 2nd photo would be much more likely. For me, anyway.

I think even without a helmet on the green-and-purple battle suit, Lex would mop the floor with Tony Stark "modern armor" -- give me the good, ol' classic red-and-gold any day!

Speaking of Luthor's battle suit, I always wondered WHY he didn't have a helmet?  Seems incredibly stupid to go up against an invulnerable SIlver Age Kryptonian with your dome exposed.  Then again, if you're dealing with a Kryptonian with a strong moral code against killing, maybe that gives you an edge -- the armor gives you lots of power, but the Kryptonian can't let loose and open up a can on you for fear of damaging the soft, exposed critical parts.

Guess I answered that one myself -- do I get a No-Prize?
