I am in the same situation - looking for that Black Widow. She's a beaut. I wonder if someone will come out with a new 1/4 scale Scarlett Black Widow with the movie coming out (whenever it does).

They show up on ebay from time to time.
The GG BW was one of my early pieces. Even back then i had to pay more than i should to get my hands on one.
It is a great looking piece. While it is the same height as the most recent Sideshow Black Widow PF, the GG is bigger. Portrait, thighs, feet, all bigger! ..given the pieces age, it looks better than many recent 1/4 PF's.

If they nail the likeness, it would be a big seller.

I think so too. Hoping Iron Studios takes a crack at it since they seem to do a good job with movie based statues.

What, nobody wants a Red Guardian 1/4 scale? C'mon, just look at that sexy beast!

I love that base design! (..and no round brown base below the base)
Fingers crossed the factory nails the paint app..

I ordered the Reg. $121.00 worth of Sideshow points help'ed

Starfire will probably take the place of Red Sonja.
The Red Sonja PF fails to fit in with this lot.
I had considered selling Red Sonja, then thought better of it.
As much as i liked this piece, and her character.. Awhile back i cancelled my pre order when a delay popped up. Figured the best time would be to do it then to get my NRD back. Trying to stay away from DC characters

I was waiting to see how her face comes out on the production version before buying Starfire, but now with the whole virus and work slowing down, I'm slamming the brakes on any new purchase.

It's crazy seeing all these people on the news who were making like $8000+ a month and 2 weeks without work and they can't pay their rent, WTF... I can understand that happening to someone living on min. wage but you would think other people who make a decent wage would of had some sort of savings...

Crazy Times...

This will be a really great statue! Portrait is the most important if they can get it right.

Your other question....
That's because they have a much bigger, nicer, place, multiple new cars, eats only organic food, vacations, weekend family enjoyable events, kids have the best game systems, top of the line electronics, 150-350.00 shoes and designer clothes, etc.. than minimum wage workers. So they have lots of bills to pay for the good lifestyle. Low wage workers spend everything instantly and has no motivation to do more. Except giving all kinds of excuses how the world is the reason they are there on the bottom. So both groups are now at a stand still. The third group which is the rich. They are doing just fine.

Those high earners fail to make sense. They have the brains to earn, but lack the brains to store some cash in reserve?

Me, i switch to noodles!
Chicken noodles, Curry noodles being the preferred choice.
I stay away from the expensive fast-food joints, notably Ronald McDonald's (garbage-in-a-bag)
