In my opinion, that's way too sleek for Samus Aran.
Samus Aran is a cold blooded, automatonic, sadomasochistic killer... when she's in her suit. Out of her suit, she's a feminine fun-loving gal who has a celphone and wears experimental clothing that doesn't leave much to the imagination.
The beauty and innocence of woman, the destruction and power of woman scorned.
In her suit, she should be a robot, she shouldn't move or react like a human female at all. (This pissed me off a little in Metroid Prime when you see her eyes behind her cycloptic visor, but seeing her face in the reflection was just too damn cool.)
Did you guys know there are apparently two main Samus designs at Nintendo? One of them is the one we see in the games all the time. Blonde, tall... typical Japanese heroine. The other design looks like Ayla from Chrono Trigger. :D Blonde, tall... and covered in muscles and messy hair :D You can get one of the pics of her in the gallery and it looks weird, but good weird.
I still think the Fusion Samus looks like a cross between Samus and a Metroid, and the only things you could do to improve on that is to do small cosmetic things. Like maybe taking her cyclops visor and turning it in to the 3 nuclei of the Metroid innards. Samus would appear to have 3 eyes. But she has that design on her back. Maybe expand on the idea of the batman fins to make her entire body spiky or maybe even make her suit transparent in some areas so that you can see 'veins' or 'nerves' of the suit's inner workings, or Samus's organic structure as well.
