Black Widow Yelena Belova Bishoujo Statue

Black Widow Yelena Belova Bishoujo Statue – SDCC 2009 Exclusive

If you missed the thrill of San Diego Comic‑Con 2009, here is your second chance to secure one of its most sought‑after collectibles: the Black Widow Yelena Belova Bishoujo Statue from Kotobukiya’s acclaimed Marvel Bishoujo line. Limited to just 500 individually numbered pieces worldwide, this rare rendition of Russia’s blonde “other” Black Widow is the centre‑piece every elite Marvel collection deserves.

From Spy Thriller Origins to Fan‑Favorite Heroine

Yelena Belova first infiltrated Marvel Comics in Inhumans #5 (1999), quickly returning to headline the Black Widow mini‑series the same year, where she faced off against Natasha Romanoff in a clash of espionage and ideology. Though initially an antagonist, Yelena’s relentless drive, lethal Red Room training and layered morality earned her a prominent place in modern Black Widow lore—and, most recently, a breakout live‑action debut in the MCU. Displaying this statue lets you celebrate the moment the “second Widow” stepped from the shadows to claim her own legacy.

Shunya Yamashita Design & Yu Ishii Sculpture

Master illustrator Shunya Yamashita re‑imagines Yelena through his signature Bishoujo (beautiful girl) lens, balancing feminine power with tactical poise. Sculptor Yu Ishii faithfully translates the illustration into three dimensions, capturing the subtle arch of her back, the confident sideways glance and the windswept movement of her cropped blonde hair. Every surface—from the glossy black stealth suit that reveals a daring midriff to the metallic buckles of her utility belt—features razor‑sharp detailing and a premium paint finish worthy of a high‑end gallery piece.

Display Synergy

The dynamic stance mirrors Kotobukiya’s original Natasha Romanoff Bishoujo, allowing collectors to showcase the two Widows back‑to‑back in a perfect espionage tableau. Surround her with fellow Avengers Bishoujo releases—Captain Marvel, Scarlet Witch or Iron Man—to stage a covert strike team on your shelf. The statue’s compact footprint fits easily in Detolf cases or desktop dioramas, while the glossy base echoes the red hourglass iconography synonymous with Black Widow.

Collector Value & Investment Appeal
