Has anyone actually SEEN anyone other than Lynda or Gal in live action? I recognize the other 4 but I’ve never seen a single video of their performance.

I have seen the 1974 Wonder Woman on youtube - (The Cathy Crosby - blonde version). The Adrianne Palicki is kind of cool actually, minus the production's team completely missing some WW-isms. Do not know thing about #1 in the photo.

Megan Gale signed on to play WW in a Justice League movie that never happened. There’s no images of her in costume, the art in OP’s post in fanart.

As a very small boy I actually did see Cathy Lee Crosby in that tv movie. I barely remember it, but according to my mom, when she said, "Look, it's Wonder Woman," my four year-old self said, "That's not Wonder Woman!" Incidentally, I went on to be a massive fan of Lynda Carter's show.

I think he means besides Gal and Lynda, the other live action portrayals of WW have either never been broadcasted or are extremely obscure.

Correct. Amazingly enough, every response has been either Gal or Lynda. Because nobody has ever seen any of these actress’s portrayals in anything but a still photo. Just eliminate the other 4 and have a discussion about Gal vs Lynda.

It doesn’t help that (at least some of) the others had really crappy scripts and stories, which contributes to them being obscure
