54864 Driver Figure

[TWINSET]

Not new news, but there's a half decent pic of it now

'Face' is a separate insert (to the right of body on sprue) in the helmet, so painting it should be an absolute doddle, and the eyes are stickers

That makes at least two of us! As much as I like Willy, I am glad Tamiya has released another driver figure, and one that is easier to customize.

Honestly, I'm super excited there's a girl figure

I didn’t notice the more feminine feature stickers/eyes when I first looked. 

Thats cool though as I want to put a driver in my daughters car and this makes it easier.

My daughter will be delighted. I have been waiting for a Wild Wendy to ping up for sale but never see them.

Looks like it will take a tiny bit of modifying to get the head onto the standard full Wild Willy body, but not a lot.

I really love the androgynous design - "generic racing man" figure is all well and good in a scale installation but finding female heads has always been tricky (admittedly easier now with 3D printing).

These are obviously more cartoon-inspired but they'll look great in anything big enough to accommodate the head.
