For those of you that have the Scarlet Witch, what do you think of the statue in person?

I've been on the fence about picking this one up.

She's sweet. Of my FS's she's one of the only ones I'm keeping.

I like her as well. I have her placed next to my vision statue, and they look great.

At first I honestly had alot of problems with the statue, but over time she has grown on me.

She was my first FS and I love her. Simple yet elegant. I really like the sculpt and it doesn't take a lot of room. I personally did not like the bust at all, but this made up for it.

I'm also on the fence about this one. However, I may end up picking her up at some point.

She's one of the quintessential Avengers IMO and I already have Cap, Thor, Iron Man, and Black Panther in FS with Hawkeye coming and then I will be looking to nab the Vision. So, as you see... I need a woman in the mix.

I think the Scarlet Witch FS is a beautiful, elegant sculpt that captures the Wanda I remember from my days of reading comics.

The thing is we've seen Wanda drawn by the best... George Perez... Adam Hughes... John Byrne... So when it coms to a statue rendition, I think some of us hoped for something that resembled what these artists have done with her... Mighty tall order, I think... At first glance, her face comes off drabby-like, aloof, uninterested... Not sure why the sculptor went that way as it doesn't really exude much of the character's strength, inner anguish, and sex appeal...

Like Jesse said though, over time, it does grow on you. I'm happy to have it.
It looks great next to the Vision.

I have had the same problem. But recently decided to buy it.

She's definitely worth getting. The pics don't do her justice, IMHO. Yeah, she's a little aloof, but still, looks great.

i don't know if i got an exceptional paint job or if i'm not as picky as most of the people here, but mine looks great. maybe if you stick it under a magnifying glass, there's an issue on the face, but honestly if you're doing that you're driving way too close. :laugh:

anyways, if you buy this one, i think you'll be very happy. the sculpt is great and she is one of the best female sculpts of all the phases. :buttrock:

she looks great from a few metres away LOL, I couldn't have put it better myself. She doesn't bare close scrutiny. I don't like the face at all and mine has a particularly bad paint job on it. I'm actually on the fence about getting rid of it.

I have been on the fence for a while on this one.
After all the positive and negative on this thread.....I am still on the fence :laugh:

My favorite was she looks good from a few meters away :buttrock:

Still might buy it anyway.

She's done by Sosa. He did the Deadpool FS. She's a decent statue. I have her next to the Vision and Magneto. Low production run of only 1500.

I like her. I would strongly recommend her.

The only F/S I own.......until we get a Quicksilver!!!! :buttrock: :buttrock:

I will admit I had a few issues with it when it first came out, but I do love it - very regal!!!!!

Excellent FS, get it you won't be disappointed, then when Quicksilver comes you'll have Magneto's disfunctional children.

Actually, you'll need to also wait for the FS Polaris to complete the whole family!

I don't think your ever gong to see a FS of Polaris, were just lucky to get a minibust.

great piece done in the Alan Davis style. Eric did a great job capturing the artist style IMO.

I really like this one as well. I have her between Magneto and Vision. All I'm waiting for is Quicksilver!

A lot of us are. I think it will get done somewhere down the line.

I guess I'll be the first to say it's not one of my favorites. Of my 20+ statues, I'd rank her in the bottom third. I don't like the face sculpt and mine has a bad paint job.

Ditto.
