Custom: Black Widow by Jared Burks

Another nice creation from Jared Burks (Fine Clonier) with this Black Widow custom.

Just a note: I really have trouble with the overly marked hip circumference on the minifigures depicting female characters. The optical effect of silkscreen printing is not sufficient and it would be high time to definitely switch to alternative torsos with bent hips as in product Arealight with his Curved Torso...

After all, LEGO knows how to produce new parts when someone in Billund decides to do so and I don't see why it would be difficult to feminize the range a little more. Especially since the manufacturer has just released figurines in the Friends range which display resolutely feminine shapes. Not that I'm denying the traditional minifigure as we know it, but I think a little bit of evolution in this area wouldn't hurt ....
