First previewed here.
As a summary, Kopf's minifigures are great in terms of print and plastic quality! Though while the quality might be good, some designs are repetitive and are a bit questionable.
I set aside the accessories already. Wanda also came with an ice cream/yogurt bucket that I forgot to include in the picture. The blue bowl seems to be a new mold from Kopf too. Though for me, the best accessory, despite being so simple, is the black wand with white tips. See the preview picture of KF6134 to know which accessories belong to which characters.
Let's start with the Halloween costume variants. These two look great, but it's also a bit hard to compete against XINH's Wandavision minifigures. Design-wise, I prefer XINH's but you can't go wrong with Kopf's minifigures too. Best option is to get both variants and mix and match your favorite parts!
The cape might seem like overkill for Vision, and that's because that cape mold is originally for Doctor Strange. WM first released a Doctor Strange minifigure with a similar cape mold, then Kopf did a highly similar one too. It's a great mold, but I wish Kopf modified it a bit more so that it fits Vision's Halloween look more.
Wanda's hair mold also isn't smooth for some reason, and it's not an isolated case since the Scarlet Witch minifigure below has the same mold.
The base minifigures, like the others in this set, are great! Face prints definitely look great, and are better than XINH's or WM's in my opinion.
They both have alternative faces. For Vision, it's a bit weird since only the collar covers his back face, but the collar is long enough to do it well enough.
Now for the black and white variants of Wanda and Vision. Only KOPF has these variants so far, and I'm a fan! No problems on quality, other than a wrong choice in using the hard plastic cape and that there's a tiny gap in printing on Wanda's torso & skirt.
The skirt - torso prints on the back are smoother than the front.
Here's the problem with this Doctor Strange cape mold: they're obtrusive. It's a bit hard to tell on the picture, but the head won't go as low as possible because the cape blocks it. Plus, Vision's new hair mold also can't be put on properly because of the collar. I wish Kopf included cloth capes for Vision too, since those would've allowed the head a more snug fit.
Nope, no dual-molded arms here. We haven't really seen dual-molded arms from any of the "mainstream" minifigure brands recently.
These two don't have alternative faces for some reason.
Mold abuse? These two Vision minifigures have the same Doctor Strange cape, again. I love the cap, but it's a bit too much for these characters; I also wish that Kopf included plain cloth capes with these guys so that we have more options. If you look closely at White Vision too, you'll see that his head isn't as low as it should be. Plus, if connections between the torso and head are tight, it's really difficult to separate them when there's a huge collar in the way.
Nothing new with Vision on the left. Vision on the right looks great though! Although, it'll be hard to compete with XINH's White Vision (review coming soon).
Thank you, Kopf, for side prints!
Now for these last two Wanda/Scarlet Witch minifigures. The one on the right is exclusive to Kopf. On the other hand, XINH released a similar Scarlet Witch minifigure, and that one is hard to beat.
See, weird hair mold on the left.
Love the crying face on Scarlet Witch!
Overall, these minifigures are good in terms of quality! If you're looking to use them for parts, you won't be disappointed. Although, design-wise, they have a lot to compete with. Thankfully, KOPF also has 3 exclusive designs in this wave!
