Iron Studios Reveals Six New Marvel Statues

[ddarko]

Ooooh, about time. I can get my Psylocke now finally!

Does anyone else think that Psylocke's hips look a bit too.... thick?

There, the perfect Jim Lee Psylocke. The right hair, the right face, the right sash.

I don't understand why it's so difficult for companies like Hasbro or Kaiyodo to get it right. They always got to screw up something.

My guess in regards to Hasbro is that they screw up, just so that they can improve and sell another version of the figure Jokes aside, my major gripe with Hasbro figures is that the faces, hair, and head placement is just too far behind compared to Japanese figures.

With Kaiyodo, I think the goal is to redesign to an extent while keeping the character still recognizable. I like their work in that sense. A little metallic paint, the exaggerated hair, the insane level of articulation (granted, here its a love hate relationship because the overall flow of the sculpt of the figure does take a hit here) and the ton of accessories.... I would take Kaiyodo any day. Speaking of which, I hope they did a good job with the upcoming Psylocke because I have that on pre-order

I really dig these. I'm not past mixing statues into my Marvel Legends displays. Is this in scale with Legends?

They won't be in scale with the usual Legends figures. The Legends line is 1/12. The Iron Studio statues are 1/10. I have the same issue since all of my scale figures are 1/8, 1/7 and 1/6. The Psylocke here will be my first 1/10.

Hmm....Psylocke shows unavailable coming soon, and I don’t even see WM & WS.
