John from Queen was a guest on
Say Whaaat?!!! yesterday and mentioned a couple things about the character.
Queen is still working on improving the likeness because of the feedback from original reveal. He didn't say a new reveal was imminent, or that they were only waiting for approval on the improvements, so looks like we are still a ways off yet before this will ever go up.
Worth remembering that Black Widow took about five months after her solo film was released to finally see it's reveal and PO.
More surprising to me was hearing him say they were planning a second Wanda ( I assume another 1/4) and he wasn't sure if it would be based on her last appearance in Multiverse of Madness or WandaVision. Apparently Queen was trying to get a license for the latter, despite none of the D+ shows being available in their native market.
It didn't take me long to come around to appreciating the strengths with the likeness they already had on their original reveal.
It may not have been *perfect*, but it was still at a level that was consistent with many other female celebs put out by Queen and other companies.
My main criticism was the statue itself didn't look to have enough going on, apart from the hair, to justify a Loki-sized price point. That latter piece offers not only a just shy of perfect likeness, but light up features and cut & sew elements with premium fabrics. Wanda had none of the that and the compact base was simple, generic rubble.
In any case, it's great to know there's likely another Wanda coming if you should miss out or pass on this one.
