i've been in & out of wfigs the past few years so i haven't been on the boards much...but, i can't help but comment on this one:
how is it that maryse has ended up with 2 figures from 2 different companies that look, uh, less than great?
Jakks was hit & miss with a number of wrestlers/divas, but when you see how accurate the Beth, Mickie & Kelly figures are, its clear that Mattel knows how to get decent Diva face sculpts - so why are they dogging Maryse with that ugly open-mouthed sculpt and the odd hair sculpt?

I think she looks good the head sculpt has a real stuck up cocky look on her face which is pretty natural. Personally I like an open mouth on a woman so long as she isn't talking, but her teeth make me fearful.

Hair might not look the best but the face looks spot on to me.  |

I think the scan looks fine. I will have to give her hair and outfit a paint job upgrade though. Mattel needs to stop using yellow hair for the Divas, Maryse's hair is more white than yellow.

The hair looks terrible. I agree on that point.

I think the face looks great! It kinda looks better in the ring fest photo than in the proto but great none the less!! Its the outfit choice that makes me wonder who sat down and said "Oh this outfit represents Maryse perfectly!!" FAIL!! I think i'm gonna do my first custom when I get her. I just don't know what kind of paint to use :/ Heres a pic of what i'll do, I don't have photoshop so this is the best I could do with paint. . .  |

I'll be honest, I think Maryse is the BEST "Diva" figure Mattel has produced yet.

I like how the head scan turned out. The hair seems a little short, but I love the expression.
I'm more disappointed in the attire choice and the lack of new parts. I thought for sure she'd get a new sculpt for her top and legs.

Personally I think the scan is a pretty good likeness.

I just got the Basic Series 8 figure in hand today and let me assure you that it's a lot better in person. The scan is leaps and bounds ahead of the Jakks Maryse and although the attire is bland for someone like Maryse, it too is a much better selection than the Jakks version. My only SMALL complaint about this figure is that it has the smaller breasted torso. With that said, the Beth/Mickie torso would also look out of place on this figure and other than the damn cup size of this toy, it matches Maryse's likeness very well.
EDIT: I also noticed some comments on the hair. It looks short when looking at the figure face to face, but it actually goes down to the lower back of the figure.

Could you please please post front back and side pics? Even comp. pics to the other divas?? Please?? Karma will be given!!! |

The face sculpt looks pretty good to me, and I've got no problem with the purple attire either.

I'm technologically intellectually- disabled and lack a sufficient device that could actually do this figure justice. |
