Hot Toys 1/6 "Black Widow" in CA: Civil War Pt.2
In my opinion, this figure has the best resemblance of Scarlett Johansson as compared to the rest of my collection.
The paint application on the facial sculpt is great with realistic skin texture that Hot Toys is very good at. The skin color matches very well between the face and neck which extends to the chest.
Her boots have little bit of weathering. They restrict the ankle articulation and thus, not much dynamic poses you can get from the figure.
Hot Toys has been improving its hair rooting technology. Her hair color looks natural and convincing.
Her handguns look "very plastic" as no weathering is done on the surface. However, they fit nicely in the holsters on both thighs.
The above is the extended nightsticks Black Widow used in most of her fighting scenes.
Although the jumpsuit is fitting, it does not restrict the overall articulation.
Due to the design of the jumpsuit, upper body moves and turns better than lower body.
The right above is my favorite picture taken from the character wielding her handguns :)
As the figure has pretty tight joints, it can stand on its own.
Take a closer view at the fantastic head sculpt once again...You may look at the box art and design here.

The realistic part is the imperfections like freckles on the face that is part and parcel of human therefore HT got this right. The most impressive area is certainly the close resemblance through excellence sculpting. For a modeler standpoint, the plastic surface for guns should be able to improve by matte top coat with dry brushing.
Bro, I agree with your statement here :P
