[NewJeffCT]

we've been waiting for Gadot since it was announced. She looks better than I thought.

1. Works for me.

[antiquie]

3. Me, too.

No red, white and blue.

2. Nice...

I hate to say it, but the original series made me fall in love with slow motion running. Give me a break- I was a teenager

11. Nothing will ever beat this:

19. At the time, I didn't understand why my dad would linger on that show while cruisin' the channels.

4. It's less ridiculous than the regular Wonder Woman costume

But it's still not real armor. You wouldn't see Batman or Superman in that little.

[NewJeffCT]

6. Superman doesn't really wear armor, either

the old Batman didn't really wear armor, either... though, I think modern day Batman's suit is a bit hardier than the old leotards from before Frank Miller's Dark Knight in the mid 80s. But, Batman also isn't as tough as Superman or Wonder Woman.

I wonder if the fanboys would be outraged if Superman had bare thighs, arms & shoulders like Wonder Woman, though?

5. Is that a Wonder Woman,,,

or a Xena: Warrior Princess costume??

[NewJeffCT]

7. just posted similar on a friend's Facebook page

that she looked like an updated version of Xena. Not that that is a bad thing.

[wyldwolf]

16. being that Xena was an updated version of Wonder Woman..

8. "we've been waiting for Gadot..."

hahaha

9. No Lasso?

I see a shine by her sword arm but not sure. Other than that I give my approval.

[NewJeffCT]

10. I think there may be one

on her right hip, but it's not very clear.

[wyldwolf]

12. the symbol on her tiara looks Kryptonian

[sakabatou]

13. Looks good

So, what happened to the pants costume?

[NewJeffCT]

14. That was from the failed pilot in 2011

David E. Kelley was the producer, and Adrianne Palicki as WW. Those who saw the pilot thought the show sucked and the costume did as well - gave WW two alter egos - one a high powered CEO, and the other some insecure secretary or something like that.

[wyldwolf]

15. Well...

... aside from the two alter egos the pilot wasn't half bad, IMO

That being said, rumor was just a few months ago that Gal Gadot's costume would look like this:

17. Interesting

thanks for the link - she looks like a brunette Pam Anderson in the first one, though the others are a bit more realistic

[sakabatou]

23. Ah

[Kaleva]

18. Isis could probably kick her butt.

[NewJeffCT]

20. Her and Lynda Carter

were maybe my two main boyhood crushes.

[Kaleva]

21. It was Paula (Cheryl Miller) from the Daktari show who was my first.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

22. She reminds me more of a sword and sorcery female warrior, like Red Sonja

from the Robert E. Howard story The Shadow Of The Vulture and the Conan comic books.

[NewJeffCT]

24. Red Sonja

was more the chainmail bikini type, if I recall. While it may look great to the teen fanboys, it's not really very practical.
