Though the ability to heal,spontaneously regenerate even, IS Claire’s power, I’m disturbed that she’s advertised as coming with a “wounded head” and “wounded arm.” That there are people who want the option of posing a woman with gashes is almost as nauseating as a company that would supply them with that option.
I hope that the painting she comes with is the one of her walking through flames
rather than either of the ones that portend her death.
The questions are, is this enough to keep me from purchasing the Claire figure to proudly display in my office next to Scully, Dr. Crusher, Guinan, Turanga Leila, Buffy, Willow and Anya? If I discard the wounded limbs, does my purchase still support the fact that they were offered in the first place? And finally, do I think about things too much?!?
