Marvel Legends Series Scarlet Witch Action Figure Video Review And Images

@McHoganI'm afraid you're right, on all counts. Just happy Wanda's been retuned to the spotlight (in a good way) in print!

I so disliked this movie & the way it butchered Wanda's character that I can't bring myself to buy this figure -- though I kind of want the Darkhold for Agatha. The likeness looks good, but it will just make me grumpy to have her on my shelves.

The only other SW figure I've boycotted was the first Civil War one -- the face sculpt looks exactly like Kate Beckinsale as Selene in "Underworld". Not a bad thing in of itself, just not a very good likeness of Lizzy.

Unfortunately Marvel comics allowed the character assassination of the Scarlet Witch long before MoM did so. Though she has since returned to the side of the angels it's obvious that the MCU took a few misguided stories as their inspiration for Dark Wanda.

I fear Wanda's return to heroism, much like Steve Roger's return as Cap, wil not play out within the MCU the way they did in print

As for the figure.. this Wanda isn't evil ENOUGH. She looks like she got her hands dirty. Barely being taken over by thr Darkhold. In truth barely distinguishable from her last heroic figure. Why not go full evil if they felt they needed to give us this version?
