Let me first start by saying that I usually don't care for the Diva figures. I am not a huge Diva fan to begin with and I usually feel like Jakks and Mattel half-assed the figures just because they needed to put them in the line.
With that being said, Mattel certainly did not half-ass this figure. The detail on this figure is amazing. It doesn't really show in the pictures, but in person it truely is a work of art. No joking, this is some of Mattel's best work in the WWE line. Easily a top 10 figure and by far the best Diva they have made so far.
It also appears that Mattel is putting a little more effort in their Diva figures coming up as well. Brie, Lana, Stephanie, Summer Rae, and Nikki all look much improved over the previous Divas they have released over the years.
I guess the point of this thread was for me to say I am pleasantly surprised by this figure. I mainly pre-ordered this figure for the Divas title because I missed out of Kelly Kelly and had been using the Bella Twins 2-pack version in my display, but turns out the figure itself far outshines anything else in the Divas collection.
Props to you Mattel!

I love divas figures. Paige's is by far the best divas figure ever. Eva Marie, new Brie Bella, new Nikki Bella, Stephnaie, Emma, Summer Rae and Lana are all absolutely terrific figures

I think Mattel is getting better at making the Divas figures.

I think Mattel is getting better at making the Divas figures. I'm not so sure if it is they are getting better or if they are just spending more time/money on them. Like I said in the opening of this thread....It always seemed like the Diva figures were an after thought to the series. Almost as if they were only making them because they had to. |

I think the likeness could be a little better, but I'm very happy with her in general.
Do you guys display her with the belts? She can't seem to wear or carry them without it looking awkward. I haven't been collecting long, and don't have many belts, so maybe I'm doing something wrong.

The Divas title went directly on Nikki and the NXT title went into storage. |

I think it's an excellent figure. Best Mattel Diva, imo.

Like I said in the opening of this thread....It always seemed like the Diva figures were an after thought to the series. Almost as if they were only making them because they had to. That's true. I feel like the scans on the more recent diva figures look a lot better than the first few figures. Brie, Emma, Nikki, Paige & AJ scans all look great. |

I just recieved mine yesterday and I have to agree, it is certainly a piece of art! Mattel is raising the bar and now I expect Paige quality divas from here on! So far it looks like we'll be getting that with the exception of Nikki (but that's my lone opinion and I'll get into that later) My only issue with page is that mines leg is warped I can't tell if it's how she's molded or what but her leg curves outward. If the had included a swivel above her sock I'd be able to fix it. This combined with the super loose ab joint she's hard to pose without her looking like a drunk staggering out of a bar. Regardless of production quality the figure is a great sculpt and has come a long way since my very first days of diva figures. I think the likeness could be a little better, but I'm very happy with her in general. Do you guys display her with the belts? She can't seem to wear or carry them without it looking awkward. I haven't been collecting long, and don't have many belts, so maybe I'm doing something wrong. I put the new divas title away as I felt it's comically too small. So the (Kelly Kelly) divas title is on Nikki or whichever diva is champ at the time. She's got it buckled and over her shoulder kinda holding it with her arm. The NXT title is currently on Paige. It's going to go on which ever diva is newest to my collection. So now it's on Paige next month Sunmer Rae then Lana... I have Paige posed just like she is in the box, the title is unbuckled and it hangs by placing her finger thru the buckle hole. The titles can get tricky when displaying them with the figs, you just gotta mess around with it. |

I was expecting yaymysterio/King Bong Bundy to have already replied about how many flaws it has and how you all just accept less for more from your "precious" Bill. Lol.
I think the figure looks great and the NXT Women's Title is a huge plus as far as accessories. I would love to have her leather jacket as well some day.

One of the best diva figures, can't wait to display her with the new AJ Lee coming out.

Haven't seen it in person yet, but I agree it looks great, and I am also someone who doesn't collect diva figures, and has little to no interest in them. I'm anxiously waiting for Amazon to stock Elite 34 so I can get my hands on it and Doink.

I'm pretty impressed with some of the Diva's they have done lately like Paige, Lana, Steph and Summer. They all look great. I hope Lita turns out nice.
