1/6 Hot Toys - MMS365 - Captain America: Civil War - Black Widow Collectible Figure

Final product is painted by machine?

They are hand painted. But by a factory worker and not one of the best face painters on the planet. Which is what JC is.

Generally, that is the case. Production sculpts tend to not be quite as good as prototypes when the prototype looks phenomenal. However, there have been some cases where the prototype has looked good or not so good, but the production sculpt actually turned out looking better than the proto.

It's not the sculpts. It's the paint. The heads that Jc shows are production sample heads he paints as a master or reference for the others. So the final sculpt we all get is almost always exactly the same as the ones he shows. But when you have someone else paint them the details often soft from lack of time to paint and skill. Nothing against the workers at the factory, they are good. Great even. But JC (wth-my autocorrect keeps changing Jc to zucchini lmao) is one of the top five or ten skin/face painters on the planet.

I've said this before, but I really...really..really hope the production piece comes out close to the prototype. I've been waiting for a home run BW head sculpt for years now. I so want to preorder this right now, but I have to see some production pics first. Man I hope it's close.

Yeah, that's what I've noticed. It's not actual the detail of the sculpts, but just the paint apps often look a bit softer when compared to the prototype. Not as crisp.

The eyes finally look like they're looking at something, instead of a blank stare.

Looks more like ScarJo here.

Might have to trade in my Avengers one.

OMG that's so real looking it's scary.

Sculpt is looking great.

That sculpt is close, really really close. So far the best ScarJo likeness yet.

 

[Underaglassbell]

It's beautiful..

That moment when you pre-order the best ScarJo figure yet.

The display at the marvel by hot toys store (toy sapien) was pretty cool. Nearly every marvel figure from the last three years and the upcoming CW ones

 

[PopCultKid]

I wish to God that this is what would actually show up at our houses. I wonder what JC's going rate for commissions is

Thanks to Mark 45 and Sabrina.

So...when will she be out? She looks AWESOME!

 

[ZombieGuy13]

After watching CW. I would love to see HT make a BW and Bucky civilian clothing.

 

[Desamo]

That is great pose.
