Damn, $234 for BW? j/k...ordered!
Definite buy for me. It may not be as dead-on as Hawkeye, but it's by far the strongest BW sculpt yet.
And I'm sure it's the same body as before, but somehow this one seems to have a slightly curvier look to it, which is nice to see.
The costume really reminds me of The Wasp costume. Not liking the material they're using. Can't decide between this or just wait for the solo movie.
I'm torn. The new outfit looks cool, but construction looks a bit too thin and rubbery, and I worry about material degradation. Also, it seems to hug those shoulder joints unnaturally, making them look 'toy-like'... Something you'd see on a $20 figure, not a $250 collectible. I also see that the zipper seems like part of the 'stamped/printed' pattern on the outfit, rather a functioning part of the garment... I'm not sure how I feel about that.
Call me crazy, but I'm slightly disappointed with the sculpted hair. It looks really good, BUT I can't help but think of all those other times when sculpted hair WOULD have been better (Avengers, AOU, and maybe IW) and THIS is the one they sculpt. Other manufacturers have been doing great things with braided synthetic hair lately and I was hoping Hot Toys was going to join this party.
Gripes aside... Wow... WOW... that is an amazing headsculpt! That likeness is the best ScarJo yet! I dig the facial expression too! I hope that quality is maintained to the final production model.
I’m with you. I think plastic hair is a step backward, but it’s probably a cost-saving factor for HT. It is what it is.
Rooted hair isn’t bad if you aren’t afraid to put your ego aside ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ it’s kinda annoying when people call it “doll hair” like, uh, what do you think this is?
