DC Direct’s Cover Girls of the Universe line of statues continues on strong with its fifth piece, Power Girl. I have to admit, this is the first statue from this series that hasn’t completely wowed me straight out of the box…but for some reason I can’t place *exactly* what’s bothering me about it. I dig the cape; I dig the huge cleavage window; I dig the pose…but I can’t help but keep going back to the face and asking myself what I don’t like about it.

A new goody arrived at my door yesterday afternoon, the Hippolyta as Wonder Woman minibust from DC Direct. This is the first bust in the third series of WotDCU busts, the third series being based on the designs of artist Amanda Conner. So I figured what the hey…if I’m going to upload pics of Hippolyta, why not do the rest of the crew as well? So when all was said and done, I uploaded over 300 images of 20 Women of the DCU Busts (I’m missing a few from the first series, I’m afraid). Click the link below to and have fun with the galleries!
