@@TokuAndAnimationNewsNetwork yeah I’m still thinking about kitbashing using one of the heads from the new black widow and doing a hair swap as well as removing the jacket and replacing it with grey female arms, but I’m hoping they release a character or even black widow with grey arms in the shriek body
Looks like a nice fig. Love the body sculpt. Athletic and powerful while retaining much of that classic Black Widow anesthetic. Head sculpts really nice. Articulation looks fun for posing. Props to Hasbro on this one!
@sumtengwong8703 Well, same could be said for many characters that all deserve better versions in one way or another, whether articulation, proportions, headsculpt, or something else. Also we've never even seen a classic Angel fig from Hasbro at all, and the only White Tiger they did was the female version, never the original male character. So....Black Widow is far from alone in the "It's about time..." department. 😉
The new exquisite face sculpts and all the accessories were already tempting me, but I was sold when you pointed out the butterfly joints. Along with being pinless and the double-hinged elbows, this IS the ultimate Black Widow!
$28 is still too high for this. It just has some rudimentary articulation, it might have been impressive for 2010, but definitely not now. These accessories are all tiny and not too impressive (except the heads, those are great). This should just be $15
I sad it before, I'll say it it again, The three head sculpts are very beautiful and the articulation on her is so awesome because we all need a badass articulated Black Widow figure from Hasbro for a long time, If I do see her along with the Astonishing Ant Man in stock, I will get them both, Fantastic review on this figure Shart.
Got this gal on preorder and I am soooo excited to get it. I might still check out my local target and see if they have her in store, but still keep my preorder. I think I favorite head for this is the short hair one, but the long hair without the Peggy bangs is in close second. In my opinion this is best figure of the year and best value for what Marvel Legends are costing nowadays
I'd say this figure is probably one step forward, one step back. They added an outdated articulation piece with the ab crunch and the subpar functioning butterfly joints. She still can't do the splits, doesn't have ball hinge wrists and ankles, toe articulation, and ball peg articulation in the waist. By Marvel Legends standards, it's decent, but by action figure standards as a whole, it's pretty outdated, even compared to GI Joe
In regards to the right leg, I had the same thing happen with my new Hawkeye. If you pop the leg off you’ll see that there is some missing plastic in the mold that makes it loose. Total defect.
No luck at my local Targets per usual. I will be livid if they cancel my pre-order. She's excellent though, kudos on your good fortune. Solid as always, thanks! 👍
Same, their Widows have usually been quite ugly. I got the grey and white ones because they actually looked good but no black one yet until this figure.
Not only is this best Black Widow figure, the best female legend, but in my opinion, the best female 6 inch action figure EVER! it is definitely going to be my favorite Marvel Legend of the year. 10 out of 10, SUD rating of DDDDIIIIIEEYYYAAAAAHHHHHAAAA IT’S SO AWESOME!!!! I LOVE IT!!!! 2 PLEASE!!!!!!! This! This is all Marvel Legends should strive to be, not just in terms of sculpt and Articulation, but in the amount of accessories!!!
There's no way this is even in the top ten best 6 inch female figures ever lol. Most female GI Joes beat this, especially Madame Hydra Edit: Madame Hydra is a Marvel Legends, I meant the Baroness lol
**import female 6 inch figures entered the chat** 😂😂😂 I do agree with the Legends part though, maybe the best of the year so far, now i want to get one, she looks good :D
I got Black Widow just to use as fodder for a custom Baroness, because the GI JOE Classified Baroness is kind of a dud. It doesn’t stand very well and the arms can’t bend more than 60 degrees. Pop the torso on Black Widow, swap the belts and the heads, and get some Cobra decals.
Normally I don’t collect comic figures (I collect mostly movie figures), but this figure is probably the best Black Widow figure that isn’t an import (I.E. SH Figuarts) ever and I’m Thinking about picking it up.
I got her today and I love it. She is absolutely fantastic. I did swap out her hands for G.I. Joe Classified Movie Baroness’ hands. They are a touch larger so she can hold more pistols and both have up and down wrist articulation. I agree about your Sud Rating.
Man, all of the heads are fantastic to the point where I don't know which one I want to display her with. At first, I was going to do the long haired version without the 70s looking style, but all of them are great.
Finally something good from hasbro. It still has some issues but at least it felt like they tried to make a good figure, like some care was put into this one. Rare hasbro w honestly.
Yooooo Shartimus!! Thank you for reviewing this one, it's such a great figure and I can wait to see it's articulation scheme reused for more female characters!!
It's interesting how Hasbro fans like to bitch and moan about ToyBiz ML for having outdated articulation. Yet, those same people are ecstatic to see butterfly joints and an ab crunch on a female figure. An ab crunch is a big deal for them... in 2023, that tech was already being phased out of the industry by 2014. This figure's articulation was already outdated by 2015, nothing here is impressive
If Hasbro would always give us 3 heads, a ton of accessories, and a decent amount of new tooling like this for an extra $2, I would happily buy way more Legends than I do.
Am I the only one who wants to see Scarlett Johansson reprise her role as Black Widow, opposite Charlie Cox as Daredevil? My whole childhood reading comics, I always thought of Black Widow being paired with Daredevil instead of being an Avenger.
@@ShartimusPrime here in my country (Brazil), a basic ML figure costs around 200 and 300 bucks. I know the price can be equivalent in dollars, but the purchasing power here is quite different 😭😭😭
I saw the return iron man figure and the captain rogers figure, aka the iron with the gold square arc reactor that's not an arc reactor and the stealth suit captain America with the unmasked head
I am a huge fan of Widow and I have to say this is without a doubt the best Widow figure in this scale for the price the extras she comes with is awesome yeah I agree she should have came with a big ass rifle but other than that she is nigh perfect!
oh and my widow had ZERO gappage in that leg area at all so maybe they improved it since the ones you got for this review and the one I bought on Friday at my local Target.
Idk much about nail care, but I was told that when it gets like that, it can be from a lack of potassium. Just saying. I get the same thing now and then lol
FINALLY SOME TORSO ARTICULATION ON A FEMALE LEGENDS FIGURE!!!! AND ON PURPOSE (as opposed to MCU Taskmaster). The Female Spider Figures should have had articulation similar to Spiderman. Made no sense.
Sorry shamus, the smoky gauntlets are not new they came with the grey black widow with jet back. Now that I’ve channelled my inner saud😎 i’m going back to playing with Mania
I wish marvel legends would do away with the thigh swivel all together. So many figures are ruined for me from that gap in the cut. Other companies achieve that same articulation with a different joint, idk hasbro does it this way
I think Hasbro might do it in an attempt to convince ML collectors that import style articulation is bad. They already convinced Shartimus that dumbell joint necks don't work
Man, what a letdown, a $25 kitbash looks better than this. Disappointed in the proportions (we've seen them keep it PG13 and still look like sexy women) and hairpieces too, hoping cutting that play doh strand off the short version fixes it.
Not to be that guy but I think that’s J.G. Jones not Mike Deodato
For me, the definitive Black Widow... can’t believe Hasbro gave us two alternate heads with this one!
for sure bro!
I'd still love it if we could get the gray suit version without the jacket for my DareDevil display. This version goes with my Captain America shelf.
@@TokuAndAnimationNewsNetwork yeah I’m still thinking about kitbashing using one of the heads from the new black widow and doing a hair swap as well as removing the jacket and replacing it with grey female arms, but I’m hoping they release a character or even black widow with grey arms in the shriek body

Just found this for $13 at target. Let’s go!

This is going to look great with the new skycycle Hawkeye.
This makes a great fodder, the body for baroness and the head sculpts for valaverse bodies
But I think the Baroness has better articulation already though. I'd say just swap the arms out
The new exquisite face sculpts and all the accessories were already tempting me, but I was sold when you pointed out the butterfly joints. Along with being pinless and the double-hinged elbows, this IS the ultimate Black Widow!
For all you get the $28 pricepoint is warranted. Hasbro should pack all their figures like this and ill happily pay $28 for each

I wanted boot rotation or ankle swivel. That's my main gripe
Maybe in another 10 years lol

I've been holding out to get a black widow for a my Avengers and I'm so happy I did.
Same, their Widows have usually been quite ugly. I got the grey and white ones because they actually looked good but no black one yet until this figure.
Awesome figure! Unfortunately Hasbro figures have been having issues either with the thigh joint or or bicep. Some of the Joes with similar probs.
Wow this looks incredible....now they are going to have remake every female marvel legend with this articulation...
God I sure hope so. U would think as much as they re use molds. But they bang out triple J in the past out of no where then run double right after 😒
Hopefully Mayday Parker as Spider-Girl. I love that look.
You say it like it's a bad thing? I WISH this was standard female buck, but it's specific to back widow.
Hoping we get an updated comic Ghost Spider with this articulation

This figure is freaking awesome! Great review! The short hair remembers Scarlett Johansson to me, it's my favorite head as well.
Love the figure but mine came with a left foot for her right foot so it looks funny having 2 left feets
Hope we get get more female characters with this articulation like Elektra psylocke and spiderwoman
Double ab crunch, butterfly joints in the arms and double elbow joints in a female figure👀👀👀
This body mold is looking great overall 🤩

Definitely a great Black Widow figure. Great review Shartimus

Props to Hasbro for giving us actual accessories. Still negative on the downgraded anatomy though.
I really hope they make this articulation the standard with the female figures! Give me some Spidey ladies that can actually pose properly
No head swap with the Quake SHIELD body 🤦♂️
Do you know if any of the heads fit on the MCU Black Widow movie figures?
This guy did it. It seems like the new MCU natasha would work

Just saying. I get the same thing now and then lol
Great video, Shartimus!! Can this new Black Widow's head sculpts fit on the New Yelina Belova body?
I was wondering the same thing. Probably. I think he put Yelena's head on Black Widow
I heard it works, but the black widow has a thicker looking neck. May have to sand alittle
Hopefully this gets retooled as a Domino figure
The stingers with smokey effects is not new they already did that with the Gray Widow exclusive before
Been on the hunter for this all day yesterday, no luck 😢
Can't w8 for AnthonyCustom to call this beautiful toy an absolute trash
Dope review! My kids had to take Russian in high school, where'd you learn that expedition ("bou-ji-moi")?

how does the gamerverse 2.0 spiderman cost 35. this comes with so much and for less. i hate you hasbro, just plz dont mess up the smnwh wave.

Wish the short hair didn’t have the bang in the way
My preorder wont be sent until first week of august....
An ab crunch! On a female figure!?! I can't wait for Hasbro to use this body for 1 in every like 10 ladies to come out in the following year
