A fairly large sized package arrived this morning from Bigbadtoystore, the most interesting item contained within was the lovely DC x Bishoujo Harley Quinn figure by Kotobukiya. Hopefully I will be able to photograph her alongside Gotham City Sirens alums Poison Ivy and Catwoman  who have already been released in the DC x Bishoujo line soon (I have Batgirl too).

I am a huge fan of Harley Quinn so of course, I was powerless to resist her even though I had some misgivings about the promo photos luckily they decided to include a painted face plate (ie. white) as well as the normal faceplate. I loved the painted face plate so much that I didn’t even bother photographing her with the other one even though it is the default.


I love the level of detail on Harley’s outfit,  the poofballs on her collar and her the ruffles on her gloves are especially well done.

I’m still not the biggest fan of how the faces of Shunya’s illustrations translate from 2d to 3d but I will say that I like Harley’s face much more than I expected.

I kind of wish she wasn’t quite as shiny/reflective.

Harley Quinn’s body sculpt is absolutely fantastic.

Couple more pictures of her on my flickr
