To buy or not to buy HT Black Widow

[IXI Nick IXI]

Thinking about picking her up since she's still at reasonable prices. Is it worth it or not?

Buy what you like. not what what everyone else thinks. The reviews have been good on this barbie.

To make thread, or not to make thread.

It ultimately comes down to what you're gonna do with her in the end. She's a great figure, but at times I had regrets purchasing her. It wasn't until I got the Mark 4 IM and War Machine that I felt she was a good addition to the IM2 collection.

i didnt ask if other people like it...I just want to know if its a good figure and worth the money

I think she is. If there is something else you would rather have for that price than no. but despite all of the issues everyone claims that she has. I haven't altered her at all. The issue everyone says that her ****s are at her stomach have to do with the way the outfit is made not the doll in my opinion, can be fixed by either adjusting the belt or just the way you pose. Hair can be styled to look better, using products or not. I didn't use any, I am happy with mine, looks good with her Iron Buddies.
only issue I have is that for the price of $150 I paid for her it would have been nice to get more assessories or even an office outfit.

Edit: I agree with He Hate Me, she is a good addition if you have the other IM2 figs, by herself? only if you are a die hard widow fan

Here she is:

I have to say yes. It's a great looking figure, and really compliments the Mark IV, War-Machine etc.

i just feel like she would be a good addition to IM, WM, Spidey, Cap, Wolvie, and Thor and if i dont get her soon, I may not be able to...

yeah, she is just to go with the other avengers, not by herself

If you are doing some sort of marvel theme, then I'd say do it, she would be a great addition and the only female of the bunch. Of course, as long as you get her for retail price of about ~$140. I am not sure how much she is going for nowadays but if it's in the $180-$200, I would think twice.

100grams of plastics for more than $100?

not worth it, better buy gold dust as it will increase in price.

Thread closed.

My girlfriend has this, not a fan of her really. Sometimes she looks good but she had to work on that hair A LOT for it to even be decent.

Still don't think HT has nailed a female figure yet.

I think it looks nice, check out pic posted on the Mark IV thread.

Its a really good figure and IMHO worth the money especially at a decent price. I was intially reluctant to buy her at first, especially with the whole futzing the hair to get it to look nice. But after drooling over the photos AdrianaM and vodoun did to thiers i finally caved in. At first i was like what the hell did i do now, considering that im still paying the figures I had purchased a few weeks back. But after recieving the figure and trying my best to emulate what AdrianaM and vodoun, based on some of the tips they gave me, i was pretty happy with the purchase i made.

I manage to snag mine off ebay for $129. Shop around and find the best deal you can get her for. Best of luck

Just wait for the Avengers version. they'll probably do sculpted hair on that and she'd probably look better. Might even have a nicer costume too.

[obi_dave_kenobi]

Yeah, waiting wouldn't be bad but there is no guarantee they'll do it over, that's the only thing especially with a cast of so many, she is the least popular. The chances aren't exactly 100%.

Sculpted hair that long would be ridiculous. You do realize she won't be able to move her head... like at all right?

And futzed right, as proved in pics, the saran hair looks great. The outfit too. But the key is FUTZING.

 

[Vaako]

great headsculpt but it just looks too much as a barbie doll

 

[meanstreak]

Abigail Whistler has long sculpted hair and she looks good, so does Thor. They also released some Asian chick with hella long hair sculpted and she looked good.
