XM Studios is excited to present our next DC Comics Premium Collectibles statue, Cheetah! Each painstakingly handcrafted statue is individually hand-painted with the famous XM quality finish, and comes in a bold, dynamic, and story-laden style.
“Archaeologist Barbara Ann Minerva always had a reputation for going to any lengths to retrieve the artifacts she was after, no matter the risk. Her attitude, unsurprisingly, resulted in tragedy. After growing increasingly obsessed with mythology and divinity, Barbara Ann took her team deep into the wilds of Africa, only to be trapped and forced to participate in an ancient, arcane ritual that cursed and transformed her into a human- cheetah hybrid with a lust for blood.”
The setting of this statue explores this very origin, as we see Barbara Ann making her transition into The Cheetah amidst a swampy and forested area featuring dense foliage within a tribal setting, surrounded by decayed skulls and sharp spears at the base of her feet.
“Alternately enemy and ally to Wonder Woman, the Cheetah forever seeks a balance between her human and animal natures.” Collectors are also given the option to display one of two portraits. The first portrait shows The Cheetah sporting a human face with her mouth curled up in a ferocious snarl. This portrait retains her long flowing hair as she looks forward, ready to strike. The second portrait has The Cheetah in full transformation, featuring cat-like ears and an even more animalistic expression while fully displaying her fearsome and pronounced canine teeth for all to see.
Character Background: “Once a friend of Wonder Woman’s, Barbara Ann blamed her transformation on Diana’s inability to save her, and harbored a grudge against the superhero that drove her to the point of madness...” Read more at https://www.dccomics.com/characters/the-cheetah #DC
