Hot Toys 1/6 Black Widow Movie Red Guardian Figure Revealed

[JayC]

Thanks to Hot Toys Mad Man we have our first look at the upcoming Black Widow movie 1/6 Red Guardian figure from Hot Toys which was on display along with other figures we have seen at an overseas event. Stay-tuned for more details on this one to become available soon.

Other figures on display include Natasha from the Black Widow movie, Iron Man Mark I and the Concept Art Series Iron Strange figure we told you about yesterday.

At this point I gotta wonder where that shield came from, or more specifically why the figures come with it since the shield wasn't in the movie.

It was probably in concept art or deleted scenes that Hot Toys (and Hasbro) had access to that the regular movie going audience so far has not. Also Alexei's action figure in the movie has the shield, and he also has it in Contest of Champions.

Surprisingly for Hot Toys details aren't that sharp if you look close enough, details that should be layered are just "painted" on, or whatever is correct term with HT.

It seems to be a very early prototype. By the time it's solicited, the photos will show more detailed tailoring. We also probably won't see this figure (this exact figure, anyway) at the Sideshow Con event this coming week.

Yeah the deleted scenes/concept art scenario makes sense.
