Wonder if Black Widow is going straight hair this time. If so, then the next Black Widow from Hot Toys won't need any hair product. :clap A small comb will be all we need!

We will be ordering that a year from now. You know they will do rooted hair again and that will need product to keep it straight, too. I'm hoping the new one will get a body with even better articulation and way more accessories *hint: BFG!*. Since they figured out the material for her suit, don't mess with that, please. (Maybe she will be in more than 1 suit?) While at it, can we get a better sculpt?

I am hoping they make substantial changes to her costume. The exact same costume again would be boring.
 
Well late to the party but I finally got her. I had her out of the box for about 10 minutes before I did two mods that I have been planning since I saw this figure.
First repaint the lips. The sculpt on this figure is first rate but the production paint covered up the accurate lips. Scarlet has that very distinct upper lip and its there just too dark of color. Also she has very pink lips in Avengers so the paint was just all wrong.
And then finally I painted her hair. I know its seems strange but the hair color is really bad on this figure and I knew I could live with it so air brush and burnt sienna as a base coat then hit some high lights with some golden rod and then another layer of burnt sienna and there you have it. The color in my picture isn't perfect but the real life look is pretty spot on. Also by painting the hair it acts as a hard coating to keep it styled. Kill two birds with one stone.
Here she is. With these two mods she has become my favorite figure of the Avengers.
I may come back later and thicken her up a touch but still thinking on that one.

Umm... WOW! Fantastic work there! Those mods make her even hotter! :hi5:
 
Lips look great Robbie, not sure about the hair though, the color is better, but looks very 'solid/stiff hat', if you know what I mean?
