Hot Toys Black Widow - Black Suit

[Zurdo95D]

Lucky those over at HT can see/hold these figures in person (well, the glorious prototypes anyhow).

I like how they seem enthused to get the chance to see the figures firsthand.

Don’t panic guys if you miss out on the exclusive..because of SS lousy limited time schtick…it only has the taskmaster shield

that’s the only difference

Yep, noticed that. Right now, I'm trying to decide if the shield's worth forgoing waiting for ~$15 in pending rewards.

Is it just me or does her chest look bigger on the black suit versus the white suit?

The White suit must be very flat chested as this black version is nothing compared to earlier versions.

Only 4 hours left to get your Taskmaster shield! *Yawn*

I am just hoping the final product matches most, if not all the flexibility demonstrated in this prototype. I remember the final TDKR Selina Kyle missed the flexibility of the prototype by about a million miles…

The time limited exclusive honestly doesn’t make sense to me since I would expect those are meant to entice people to buy from SS rather than other retailers.

Of course, maybe that’s not necessary given how SS chokeholds distribution to other retailers so that pre-orders are sold out months before actual release and buyers have no other choice than to get their figures from SS.

Well the timed exclusive is a farce. Last I check this morning, these "timed" exclusives are still available.

The EX are all on waitlist.

I noticed that really early this morning as well. I checked, I saw and I laughed…

Yes, now I noticed. With the movie coming out on digital on 8/10 and 4K Blu ray on 9/14. I’m sure it will be a very long wait until this is ready to ship…BTW, joining the waitlist now will pretty much guarantee it will convert. Joining it in July 2022 is a different matter.

Hahahahaha! What a bunch of liars. Who do they think they're fooling? Waitlist my ass. Nobody decided to panic buy all those exclusives this morning. I hope they learn that their scare tactics won't work and is actually detrimental to them.

It's possible they're making EX more "limited" by doing this cutoff now. Before you could pretty much order until the item comes out.

Still weird. The shield EX makes no sense for this figure and the Taskmaster comes with it anyways. Doesn't feel exclusive at all.

As I said before, I much prefer them include the Taskmaster’s sword as the EX instead, that would have made more sense. I guess they made that decision before the movie came out.

I wonder how their scare tactic against Toyswonderland is working out...

Lol! Honestly though, people will still order through SS if they have to in spite of their actions and them being called out. I did just yesterday because I wanted the ThreeZero exclusive Guts.

Going back to this Black Widow exclusive (and the others as well), it won't be released for quite some time so I'm thinking if anybody placed themselves on the waitlist, it'll get converted.

 

[Starfleet Captain]

The exclusive is now waitlist full!

 

[Username]

I’m not sure this time gated exclusive is a good thing. But considering the exclusive is something available with another figure, it’s not a huge issue.

I have a strange feeling that this version of Scar Jo will be still be in stock after one year it's release and yes I'll be getting this version as I do like the "Dr. Dredd vibes".

I have not seen any versions of Scar Jo sell out as of now or will this version be any different?

 

[Starfleet Captain]

The A1 Black Widow PO sold out in Hong Kong in 1 week, back in 2012. Since then HT realized BW is one of their best selling figures, along with Iron man, Spider-Man, etc.

 

[borgified]

There's no way that this version will sell out at all as I heard the movie got mixed reviews. If it sells out, I'll settle with the Endgame version or wait for the eventual Mezco One:12 version that was teased.

There's no way that I'm going to give out a free loan of $250 USD/$375 CND to a supplier up front for figure thats out in Q3 of next year.

Smart man! Yeah I doubt either this or the white suit will sell out immediately. I'll pick em up when they're eventually discounted.
