It's a good figure if you can look past her being too tall and having the the wrong torso. She does look oddly tall & thin. I gather Mattel would have tried both bodies, & decided this one worked better. Wikipedia lists Eve as 5ft 8in, Beth at 5ft 6in & Michelle is 5ft 10in. Eve seems to be taller than she looks. |

4. Any chances for divas to have accessories since they won't be in elite series' ? Mattel - Who said they would not be in Elite? (Um....you did Mattel....many times) ;D Very curious about this. Mattel have said no women would be included in Elite, but they are always free to change their minds. I guess there is a Diva they think could sell ok in the series. Or atleast a Diva they want to include accessories with. Probably Kelly. It would be cool to see an Elite female body with good leg movement. I had said the Divas didnt need to be in Elite as they already had the ab crunch....but this new Eve has all the leg movement of that old Jakks TTL Ivory/Chyna mold. I'd be all up for an Elite Diva mold. They could use it for exlcusive releases (Legends for example). I think its pretty obvious that it was going to be Kharma...but they will have to wait till she comes back. |

Mattel definately used the wrong body. |

Its all about the boots. The tooling for new hips to fit Kellys legs and Mickies torso/crotch was more expensive than just reusing Kelly's whole body. Natalya got new calves to connect Beth's thighs to the kickpads, and that could have been done for Eve but they took the cheap route. I don't mind a few missing details but when budget issues affect how figures are (innaccurately) assembled it really gets my goat.
