Mattel should not go the Jakks route and completely ignore the scale differences when it comes to the divas. The Beth/Mickie torso/chest would work well for Jillian, Tamina and Natalya, but the shoulders are too broad for anyone else. The midsection is also a little too wide. If Michelle McCool (who is tall and skinny) gets the same upper body as Beth Phoenix (whom she often refers to as a man) and Piggy James (whom she often refered to as fat) I will be incredibly pissed. Im not as discriminate as Ms. McCool when it comes to the real life women but I will agree with her that there is a difference in body shapes that should be represented in figure form.
A "busty" chest similar to RA26 Candice (paired with a smaller midsection) would work well for Alicia Fox, Eve, Maryse and Melina.
A smaller breasted, narrow shouldered chest (paired with the forementioned smaller midsection) would work for Michelle McCool, Layla, The Bellas, Gail Kim, Tiffany and Kelly Kelly.
Perhaps this is what is taking them so long to produce a steady stream of divas? I hope so.

I hope Maryse and Gail Kim get their own sculpted parts.
I'd like to point out that the arms proportions throw off the look of the diva figures. The way the elbow joint is designed is a bit odd; the upper arm looks too long compared to the forearm because of it.
Also, I hope they improve the leg articulation. If Melina's figure is like Beth & Mickie's, you can't do a proper split.
