Congrats on the trades and the PO.

Not all that impressed with this head on- but the 3/4 here



works quite well for me. I definitely see a good likeness from that angle.

I also like this hairstyle better than most of the other ones, save for Winter Soldier and Civil War.
Any other year I would have been all ready to get an order in. With the Queen one in the wings, it's a tough call.

I have a feeling it will be from the new film (snow suit?), but the prospect of a silicone head has me curious as hell to see it.

I want to see the Queen Studios piece. Fact is, the price will be crazy high and silicone fails to interest me.

I am waiting for the Queen Studios piece. Also, I heard Queen mention silicone for the 1/1 and 1/2 pieces but did not hear this for the 1/4 pieces. In fact, their 1/4 Wonder Woman, Tom Holland Civil War, Ledger Joker, and Thanos pieces are all polystone head sculpts so why would they switch it up?

Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

Strange base on this but I think the likeness looks great and I don't mind the pose.

700 USD. Too steep for me.

That's the same price as the Daredevil they just released- and Daredevil has a helluva lot more going on. As well as being more than twice as heavy I would expect.

The more I look at this the more I like it.
But $700 for it isn't happening.

TBH, I'll already be well over my space limit when DD arrives and then I have two even bigger boxes expected before the year is up.
I think I have to admit to myself that I'm officially done.

If a SJ's Widow, or EO's Witch, comes along, that is super special, I'll probably dig deep and worry about making room a year later when they finally get delivered- but they'll have to be truly extraordinary.

Not feeling quite that way with this, though I honestly love that one 3/4 angle above.

If you compare it to the recent Sideshow Harley Hell on Wheels, which is 560 USD. Hell on Wheels features a hyper basic base design, and there is no actor/actress likeness license required. As far as a i am aware Iron Studio's pieces tend to be priced slightly higher than Sideshow 1/4 pieces. I passed on Wheel on Wheels to get Black Widow

Black Widow will represent my first Iron Studio's piece, and i recall many raving about the quality of the Iron Studio's Darth Vader. It is good to add pieces from different companies to a collection, if only to see the quality difference.
