The 50th anniversary Baroness had problems--small head and bad paint applications. The 2020 Retro Collection version was not much of an upgrade despite the upgraded digital paint application (does not seem to work well on heads not cast in flesh). The SDCC head seemed to be a good alternative, but in hand it is too large and paint apps are messy.

The head cast used here is a cast version shrunk down to an acceptable size, and is cast in flesh--allowing for cleaner paint application of the eyes and lips.

The belt and gloves were painted dark silver in tribute to her Sunbow color scheme--an acceptable way in my eyes to subtly break up the original all black.
