The Ent Weekly cover is likely photoshopped to death anyway.

Most companies drop the ball when it comes to SJ. She is up there with Harrison Ford when it comes to difficult to sculpt portraits.

This is going to sound silly, but I don't think Scarlett looks like herself on the EW cover. I've been watching her for more than a decade, and not just in Marvel movies, and her face on that EW cover just looks...off to me.

I will say that the Hot Toys body, as always, is too thin in the legs and hips for Scarlett though. They need a shorter, curvier body for her.

For my own collection I have the Civil War Black Widow and it's the best Scarlett headsculpt Hot Toys has done. And in fact this new figure uses that same headsculpt, just repainted. It's the terrible hair that kills it.

First thoughts. Black roots are absent. Eye's could use more blue / green
Hair style possibly too rounded, polished. Head sculpt might look better slightly narrower.
Hot Toys could have improved the outfit, if they had dropped the large silver zipper, as
it is not such an obvious feature of the original.
Moving further down, looking at Black Widows legs, they appear to be on the thin side.

Based on the images shown so far, i rate Black Widow 7/10
From what has been shown so far in the Infinity War line, the other characters look better.

The bottom line is, Black Widow Infinity War fails to be between the eyes, like Hot Toys Princes Liea Hoth, to name one example of Hot Toys on form

The sculpt isn't even the problem. It seems to me they used the Civil War sculpt and that thing looks great IMO. The problem here is pretty much everything else.

As to be expected. SJ, like us all, is growing older. Maybe the sculpt was based on less recent images of SJ
For sure, the Ent Weekly SJ has been given the once over by PS


SJ is know where near as skinny as the HT figure

Probably empty display boxes or Chinese copies

10/10 to the person(s) behind the posing
I see HT never improved the oversize silver zipper.
