Thanks. She was a lot of work for someone so obscure (though she edges out Batzarro in total appearances), but I liked the challenge.

You knocked it outta the park. She was a real fun character with a lot of unrealised possibilities. Cudos on the work and the character selection. very cool. I miss the JSA stuff and I know that the Earth 2 storylines will never touch what they were developing.....speaking of Earth 2, what is your opinion on the designs of what we have seen so far? Have you given any thought to attempting the nu52 JSA?

I will probably never attempt a nu52 figure unless its a commissioned piece. Not because I hate all the JSA redesigns (except Solomon Gooey, I loathe what he looks like now) most aren't bad if not terribly generic. And I've actually enjoyed Earth-2 more then I wanted too, though I fear what it'll become when Robinson leaves. But it'll always feel like an Elseworlds book to me, and I've got way too many characters I want to make to fill out my DCUC before I'd bother with any nuCoke looks. They're certainly not the worst of the redesigns, though (but I wish Alan's costume had some red in it).

I might actually do a Nu52 of Green Lantern Hal but only because they never gave us one.

The TRU metallic Hal is close enough for me.

I was thinking the exact same thing about some red in Alan's costume. Just some trim to tip the hat to the original version.

I have not. I picked up the base figure and head for her, but like a lot of customs, I've twenty in mind and can only do one or two at a time, lol. Someday.
