1/6 Hot Toys - MMS - Black Widow - Yelena Collectible Figure

[noheddardstark]

Got the processing/shipping soon notice from Sideshow today....

 

[RandomHero]

I did too. Was hoping to see some more in hand photos before it shipped. Guess this one is going to be a leap of faith.

Its amazing how different it looks with the bland production paint and the bit of extra softness. Really lost it in the eyes though. I last ditch ordered this with all my old points, not sure I still want it in this state. Don't know what else I would put my points on either though, was really hoping we'd have seen more Black Panther characters by now

Weirdly I think I got a better paint job than the blogger versions. The eyes are a lot closer to the proto on mine with the amount of white below the iris

Now that is interesting. The white below the iris stood out to me as being a key feature of the prototype paint that did seem missing in the blogger photo copies. Where did you get your copy?

Gotcha. I guess it could be angles and lighting, but it sure seems like yours has more white under each iris than the copy from MrCollectionAdventures review video.

 

[rocbolt]

Its not as much as the proto for sure, but there does seem to be some degrees of variation out there. Are a few early photos where the iris looks to be touching the lower eyelid. There's a clear gap on mine, makes a world of difference

Personally, I think she's f***ing amazing.

I think that’s best photo I’ve seen of this figure so far.

Yelena is in the house! Here are a couple of crappy phone pics (the only kind I take lol) of her sporting her XM25 grenade launcher from the helicopter scene. I'm going to try to get her posed aiming it but I'm not optimistic I'll be able to pull that off.

Nice! Wish they had included that launcher with the figure.

Nice! Wish they had included that launcher with the figure.

Thanks. Yes, that launcher is hard to come by - I bought mine off eBay before this figure was even put up for order. It was the camouflage version so I had to paint it but needless to say it had plenty of time to dry lol.

Has anyone tried the head sculpt on a tbleague body to see if the neck looks right? I'm not going to take mine apart, but 1/6 white jumpsuits aren't hard to come by and if the head easily swaps back and forth, it could be a fun secondary since those bodies pose extremely well and jumpsuits hide creases in seamless bodies. The trick is finding which body the head looks good on....

Just a thought anywayy

Is it just me or is this one of the biggest sleeper figures HT has ever released?

Even though I PO'd it almost immediately, I was planning to let this figure slide by and surrender the NRD. I didn't realize Timewalker keeps the CC# on file. I'm used to getting an invoice to settle up with AE.
Suddenly, out of the blue, I had a package coming I wasn't expecting.

Was frustrated and angry as I didn't need that expense right now. I'd also been planning to stop collecting MCU figures altogether, and focus only on OT SW in this scale. So this was going to be a double kick in the head.

Instead, with it in hand, I think it may be my all around favorite female MCU figure, and the overall best actor likeness I've seen on a figure yet.
I get this is all subjective, but I see Pugh here 100%. Gorgeous!
Hate having the expense right now, but damned if I'm not happy with it in hand. Makes me want to follow through on Wanda now.

 

[davejames]

Yeah this is definitely a hugely underrated figure. I got mine last week and it looks spectacular in hand, and even beats the Wanda figure I just got.

 

[joloestrella]

Got mine! Love the headsculpt.

 

[Daggoth]

Got mine! Love the headsculpt.

That headsculpt looks great! its hard to get good lightning for the headsculpts, nice job!

I have an extensive HT head collection and, on occasion, several of the same head. I can tell you that if you have five of the same head, not only can the paint differ widely from head to head, but so can the decals used on the eyes. They probably have a couple of dozen people doing each step and so the effect can vary from head to head. This looks like what has happened here.

 

[choombaz]

Not much love for this figure, but she’s really nice. I don’t think the head sculpt is quite there but it’s a solid B. Selection of hands is very good (for once), accessories are ok if repetitive from the BW figures yes she should have that launcher. No launcher but the headset that no one will ever use? Typical HT. Tailoring is good too. Possibly the most invisible split cut boots I’ve seen, excellent (Although the angle in the photo highlights it badly haha). Plus an obvious error in the instructions. Typical HT lol.

 

[D'oh!]

Wonderful likeness! But how many of you are going to convert it into an Oppenheimer figure?
