Prototype looked fine. I think the 'power' looks terrible.

To each their own.

The prototype looked perfect.

It is assumed, in order for XM to get the piece signed off, they probably were required to add the power-rings and the additional (teeth) portrait.
It also appears they were required to turn the original portrait slightly?

Removable, or clear red resin power-rings would have been a good idea.

Removable was a huge must and miss by XM

This one has slight toothpaste mouth. A little disappointed since Colossus had a great dentist.

I would like a Scarlet Witch but I just don't like the pose.
May be she looks live better.
I'm waiting for the next SW

The original portrait featured a slightly open mouth, with a hint of white teeth on show. This was later updated so that the mouth is closed. Gone is the toothpaste mouth.

There are two portraits. It's not as bad as say the Samurai Catwoman, but I thought technology had moved past that after seeing Colossus.

I know. There is the original portrait without teeth and the extra portrait with a big set of teeth (as shown in the image you posted). The original portrait featured a hint of teeth on show, which was something factories would have probably screwed up resulting in toothpaste teeth.


Original (left) with hint of teeth.
Update (right) mouth closed, no teeth on show.

Also, she is looking in a slightly different direction now.
The original was perfect. It is annoying someone at the top got involved and told XM to alter things slightly.

I see just a dancing statue without it. Rage portrait is the only way I see to display this. However I like the crown they designed on the closed mouth better. Sadly I won’t be able to use it.
