starhorsepax, the Portrait Edition dolls from the TPM era were not only somewhat expensive, they were also overproduced for a girls' market that only sticks to a couple of toy lines and SW isn't one of them. I agree the AOTC 12" Padmé was cursed with a mediocre likeness; the Beautiful Braids Padmé doll at least resembled the real thing.
I'm all for not overproducing things either but they just don't know how to handle her character.
