8 Inch Wonder Woman figure from Mattel8-Inch Retro Action Wonder Woman from Mattel

Mattel and DC Comics present this 8" Wonder Woman action figure with removable fabric costume and black rooted hair. Wonder Woman appears in her classic red, white, and blue outfit with gold accents.

The preview photo seen here is from promotional material and is definitely not what you should expect when purchasing this figure. Clearly this was a retouched image or hand-picked sample.

Hidden in the preview shot is the fact that her red top has clear elastic straps which go over her shoulders. Her blue shorts are accented by white stars and a gold belt covers the seam between her blue shorts and red top.

MATTEL WONDER WOMAN ARTWORKWonder Woman's boots are probably the nicest part of this figure. Sculpted from a thicker, more flexible material than the original Mego Wonder Woman, these red boots from Mattel are accented with a painted white stripe. Accessories include a removable gold tiara with red star, blue plastic wristbands, and a gold lasso that attaches to her belt using a velcro clasp.

As with female Mego figures, Wonder Woman suffers from skinny joints that become too obvious when they're exposed. A huge improvement for this figure would have been to take a lead from Mego's Wonder Woman and give the figure a nude-colored bodysuit to cover the joints.

Rooted hair seems to be difficult to do at this scale. Even while this Mattel figure is still in the package, the shoulder length hair is very puffed out and unkempt looking. The painting of the face is also not nearly as neat or pretty as what's seen in the promo photo. Oddly enough and as is typical with some female action figures, Wonder Woman is still one of the highest priced character from this series.
