(More customer reviews)This may not be the Poison that everyone knows, but it's a variant that suits the character well. Being a statue with no poseability and so little clothing, the main focus is of course the sculpt of the body and the detail. S/he scores way above average in both departments and makes this a figure worth picking up for fans of Final Fight and Street Fighter, or anyone that's just looking to add some eye-candy to their collection.
Besides the expertly crafted and lifelike figure of the sculpture with it's luscious hair and noticeable but not overblown curves, the detail is really what sells this. From the tears in her jeans, loose chains, creases in her shirt, gloss on the straps and shoes, to the popped open shorts and intricate torso detail - it's obvious that a lot of planning and care was put into this figure. As mentioned above s/he comes with (partially) metal handcuffs that easily hang from the "belt" or hands and a nice but admittedly easy to scratch and smudge mirror-finished base (which she can stand easily enough without, but I wouldn't recommend it). The paintjob is also very well done with no smudging or caking although there is a hardly noticeable error with the eyeliner under one of the eyes on mine, but this may very. I do have some other minor gripes like the seemingly unnecessary cut in top right corner of the shirt and upper right arm, but neither really detract from the figure and can be ignored if you pose her at the right angle.
I don't own any of the others from the Capcom Girls collection so I can't make any comparisons, but this figure certainly does well enough on it's own merit thanks to the exquisite body sculpt and attention to detail and is sure to look great with figures of a similar size or as a standalone piece. All in all this is a fantastic figure for the price, especially when taking into consideration how hard to find and significantly more expensive the original is now.
