BLACK WIDOW: Take A Closer Look At Taskmaster's Costume Thanks To This New Hot Toys Action Figure

While a lot of Black Widow merchandise arrived in stores last year before the movie was delayed as a result of the pandemic, some items will be rolling out over the coming weeks ahead of the first Phase 4 title's debut in theaters and on Disney+, including this very cool Taskmaster figure from Hot Toys.

This collectable features the newly designed helmet and armour pieces, a finely tailored high-tech outfit in Taskmaster's signature navy and orange colour scheme, an array of detailed weapons including bow and arrows, circular shield, sword, and a themed figure stand.

Marvel Studios has been careful to keep Taskmaster's identity a secret, so the reveal hopefully won't be spoiled in advance. However, one thing we can tell you is that while the villain's costume may be a little different to the comic books, it looks badass in motion (this character is an absolute powerhouse).
 

"In Marvel Studios' Black Widow, Natasha Romanoff aka Black Widow confronts the darker parts of her ledger when a dangerous conspiracy with ties to her past arises," reads the movie's synopsis. "Pursued by a force that will stop at nothing to bring her down, Natasha must deal with her history as a spy and the broken relationships left in her wake long before she became an Avenger."

In the movie, Scarlett Johansson reprises her role as Natasha/Black Widow, Florence Pugh stars as Yelena, David Harbour portrays Alexei/The Red Guardian, and Rachel Weisz is Melina. Black Widow is directed by Cate Shortland and produced by Kevin Feige; Black Widow - the first big screen story in Phase 4 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe - arrives on July 9th both in theaters and on Disney+.
