I just received this statue on Friday after ordering it directly from Sideshow's website and I have to admit that I am very impressed with the head sculpt, which is very pretty. It does a great job of resembling actress Elizabeth Olson as the Scarlet Witch. It's a nicely detailed and painted piece, especially for being as small as it is (8.2 inches tall). I appreciate the fact that the necklace is made out of actual metal, which is a nice touch. However, the statue is a bit top heavy and it isn't stable like some of the other Iron Studios 1/10th scale pieces. The base itself should've been a bit heavier and wider. The statue and the diorama display base are made out of polystone. However, the energy effects are made out of a pliable and flexible plastic. They would've been susceptible to breaking had they been made out of polystone like the rest of the statue. I have it in it's box, which obviously eliminates the stability issue. Otherwise, it's a solid release on the part of Iron Studios!
