I just saw this amazing 12" Scarlett on ebay. I can't tell if this is an original unlicensed product, licensed, or a bootleg of a licensed product.

the weird little inspirational poster text snippets look suspect, but who knows! no L in special or is specia some other language. the color blindness test multi color text and blocking the J might be trying to not be copYrigh t lol

Lady Jay's yellow uniform and camera make it look like someone is confused with April Oniel

Consider them 3rd party unlicensed figures but legit as far as being produced. There is a lot of this kind of thing in the 1/6 world. Chinese and Korean companies making things like “The Steel” which is a Deadpool movie Colossus or “Hell Detective” Keanu Constantine.

The Lady Jaye (Canary Ann) in yellow is a nod to the Funskool version seen here:

These look like they may have used the Kotobukiya GI Joe Bishoujo series Statues as inspiration.

There's at least one shot that makes it seem like Scarlett may be anatomically correct in the chest region. Looks a little cold 8-O
