Sidra looks gorgeous. MtMs are quite ex²pensive here, but if they made (and distributed here) one with this skintone, I'd probably go for her. Although to be perfectly honest, I often dislike Mattel's lipstick color choices for dolls with dark skin.
Re: River and her staff - there's a reason why she's not wielding a scythe. She's daughter of Charon from Greek mythology, and he isn't technically a grim reaper, he's a psychopomp. He doesn't collect souls, he only ferries them across Styx and Acheron. River's staff is actually a bargepole. I like the nod to the Greek mythos, so instead of giving her a scythe, I'd like a separate grim reaper-themed release. Oh well, I can keep dreaming, but it's not like G1 MH is ever coming back...
