I don't think the hair is too bad and so far the face sculpt and costume look excellent. I really like the concept.
I think QS might have slept on theirs a bit too long, I'm getting this.

Wow!

The hair in general looks a little iffy to me, but everything else is fantastic.
Wonder if they'll be using chaser LEDs on the backdrop? I hope not, for expense reasons- though I'd probably look into trying to customize that myself, if I get it.


If this shows up on SSC for PO before the end of the year, I don't think I'll be able to resist throwing expiring rewards at it.

I wish Vision looked as good as Wanda, as I consider these two a matched set. The poses would have worked so well together with Vision being on a riser.
The two together would take up about as much room as a bigger 1/3.

I would have liked a slightly wider base and none of it behind her body, to heighten the illusion of her flying

I like it looks great, this is the first Scarlet Witch in 1/4 scale, well done IS.

I like the look of this piece. That base kind of reminds me of what they did with their recent Spidey, so I hope it has a similar light up function too.

I haven’t preordered a 1/4 scale Iron Studios since the original 3 Endgame set and Far from Home Spidey (and I’ve got all their previous MCU pieces too). But I wasn’t particularly impressed with their Black Widow, but I think I just may get this one.

Though I’ll probably pass on the Vision and their new Cap.

Just finished watching the IS video, they did a great job on the Wanda portrait. This should be a great piece to own, the colours alone will make this piece stand out in your collection.

It's a beautiful statue, I really love it.
I don't know Iron Studios pieces and the Legacy Replica 1/4 line, is the studio known for his good likeness between the prototype and the production piece ?
I saw 1/4 Endgame Cap proto and production and it didn't look quite good to me.

When you get right down to it, at these price points not many have perfect transitions from prototype to production piece.

I have the bulk of their 1/4 scale MCU pieces and they’re solid pieces. I don’t really have any regrets with most of my 1/4 Iron Studio MCU purchases.

I think the 1/4 line proto to production is strong. I have several pieces and they look great. The 1/10 pieces sometimes lose a little in production.

In french retailers, it is quite more expensive than a SS PF, a really simple 1/4 IS is €900 while a simple SS one is €600. I find the SS statues pretty close to the prototype (for my SS ones at least)
