Love the box art and the insert art; nice touches.
Straight out of the box.
I really like the boots, maybe a slight bit too large, but they look great and have an ankle cut.
I had seen someone on Facebook bring this up that with the waist padding, she becomes pretty thick. Not really anything like the actress. They removed it, so I attempted that as well.
So there is a zipper in the back and front, but the front has a stitch at the very top holding it together. I didn't want to cut that, so had to really gently slip it below the (enormous) breasts.
The biggest problem after the stitch was the belt, it's one piece, not glued. Took me a minute to think of just pulling the torso off. It came pretty easy and then slipped the belt off to get the rest of the costume off.
I didn't do it here, but wound up doing it later when putting her back together, I think it may be easier to pop out the arms from the shoulder while still sleeved. I popped them out when putting them back in, and doing it early would probably be easier.

After putting her back together, a lot flatter but just slimmer overall and closer to reality I think. the belt is a little loose there.
They included flame effects, which is nice since they weren't in the original listing and stuff. But with no instructions, I don't really know how they're supposed to be placed on her. 3/4 have holes so I assume they slip on the arms. I had actually bought some Captain Marvel energy fists and effects to try with her, but I don't know where they are right now. When I find them I'll try to post pics.
Final pose for now. Overall I'm pretty pleased with the figure, I think it was $108 shipped from Giantoy. Can't really beat that. Her neck does come off bad, but by and large she's a short figure and unless you're going to pose her on the top shelf, I don't think it will be that noticeable. Maybe for toy photographers it'll be worse, but in person she's great.
