These look like they would be right up Kotobukiya's alley. Surprised they haven't turned this into a new PVC line. Love that Scarlet Witch art.

they all look great but I love the Scarlet Witch outfit. It is inline with what she is wearing now but has classic elements of prior costumes. I would be happy if she wore that outfit permanently

I'm not a fan of Black Widow's because of the hair. I also think Scarlet Witch isn't that creative and just a redo of Storm's from last Gala.

Emma has had fabulous looks for both years.

I love what Mark Brooks did with Medusa as a Gala look...

Oh I like the toned down shoulders in those panels. And is she showing skin on the sides?

I wouldn't want that to be a permanent look for Dr. Doom, folks!

That look is more akin to the Mandarin rather than Dr. Doom.

Yup. She's showing skin on the sides.

I loved Brooks design for Medusa!

Reading the X-Men comics these days just makes me long for statues of so many characters in their looks. Instead we are stuck 30+ years ago getting rehashed looks over and over. Its so depressing. For example, Laura and Jean look great in that panel page up there.

Meanwhile there are updated DC characters all the time. Ironically for that group all anybody wants is the perfect, almost vintage at this point, Batman.

Russel Dauterman actually tweeted about it. He redesigned parts of the Gala costume to specifically be a superhero costume and said he?s happy it?s showing up in the comics now.

Gala version


Costume version


So it looks like the skirt was changed into fabric covering her skin, the feet were covered, the heels reduced and the huge telekinetic headpiece is obviously gone.
