I agree with you. They should’ve just started from scratch after the negative feedback from the initial reveal. Magneto is an A-list character and should bring in a lot of revenue for XM, but I have a feeling this will be a fairly low ES due to the lack of interest in this subpar statue.
@cubannel122 жыл бұрын
I do like this Magneto from XM. Love the way he's not just standing there. He is moving forward using his power to levitate metal fragments to use as a stepping stone. He is not fighting anyone so there's no reason for a mad or teeth bearing expression on his face. He is just using his power to move objects to his convenience. I do like him holding his helmet while showing his helmet less portrait the best. The arm making the rose metal piece levitate with his helmet on is my second favorite. The other two right arm switch out are ok but not as impressive or necessary. Looks great in my opinion and for the price and total made , I just might Preorder it.

I’m a huge Mags fan, but I don’t collect him like I do Batman statues. Batman statues are usually very dramatic with the cape. Having said that, I ordered that Legendary Beast Mags and I feel like that’s all the Mags I need in my collection. Great review as usual G-Mintizzle!!

I feel like I’ve been becoming more of a fan of XM studios because I like this piece. I do think his arm is a little bigger than it should be and he has that gigachad presence that I love about magneto. The sentinel base on this one may look like the sideshow one but the paint on the sentinel’s face looks miles better on XM’s. Sideshow had that cheap plastic toy looking paint. Also love the sentinel base. Ppl get mad at them but are fine with them making the same 90’s costumes over and over again for X-men that I’m over seeing. More modern please XM

Although I don't love this one (the white suit, throne, and SSC pieces are all better IMHO), this one isn't the worst Mags I've seen. I like the unmasked portrait and would totally display it. My problems are with the large base (although it's not as egregious as other pieces), underoos (personal gripe on nearly any character), and price. I do hope XM continues doing HOX/POX characters... I'd probably bite the bullet on a HOX/POX Storm!

Not a fan. XM definitely feels like they are just pumping out these 1/4 statues and the concepts tend to be a miss. For example, with their upcoming DC 1/4 line, so far we have seen Superman and Batman. Superman looks “meh” and Batman, probably one of the worst Batman concepts I’ve seen on a 1/4 scale. Not a fan. But at the end, XM still tends to deliver a grail or 2 every once in a while, so can’t complain.
