I'd say, anyone on the fence for this one might want to hold off for Mama Z (I can't imagine they won't make a figure of her). She's another Big Bad for arch enemies of La Muerta, and has some WILD looks that make her stand out (ahem) in a way no color swap could ever do.

Thing is, Roja's outfit is not a straight color swap from La Muerta's. Roja wears a long sleeved, crop top jacket/shrug of sorts, with thigh high boots; outfit is all in red with black skeleton markings instead of the white on La Muerta's. Nevertheless the figure is fantastic but overpriced (as all of these Exec Replica figures are). I really like the paint on the buckles and steel toed boots. They did an especially good job on La Muerta's face paint; very detailed sharp and clear. From these pics I cant tell but it looks like Roja's is good too. The good thing here is that the figures more closely match the cover art to these comics. The interior art isn't anywhere near as good.

Ugh what How are you gonna do this to me! Roja figure, I just got the La Muerta in my pile of loot on BBTS and then now this, I love the red, I'm so torn about buying this, already these figures cost wayyyyy too much, La Muerta was like 100 bucks, and that's insane, but I'm insane and I needed to have it, because it's gorgeous, but like I just can't with this.

Do I want it, oh certainly, does it feel stupid to buy it yes, it's just a red La Muerta.

So the antagonist of this series is essentially a red version of the protagonist? I know nothing about this comic series but I have liked both of these figure releases (seeing as they are practically the same) though between the two I dig the black costume a bit more.
