I'd argue that bust size isn't relevant to any of that and wish people would stop equating bust size to sexualization, but Renet's outfit does seem to be meant to be sexy (to an extent, at least, being a one-piece swimsuit with a cape). If her bust was smaller, that wouldn't change that, though.
I know you're not trying to soapbox, as you said, and I apologize if it comes off like I'm doing the same or being too reactionary, but people seeing a woman's chest as automatically sexual and, even worse, determining a level of sexuality based purely on its size, is one of my own personal pet peeves. We can't control what our bodies look like (outside of surgery), ya know?

While that could be done, they'd also have to add the belt buckles. Even so, that's not a look most people associate with Archie TMNT. It seems far more likely they'd do new sculpts based off of Ken Mitchroney's art.
