Ditto! No point in arguing on whether it's worth it or not. Just let your money talk, and if you think it's overpriced/ugly, don't get it.

I was the one who asked about the "spikes" being removable on the livestream yesterday, that is the one thing I'm not a huge fan of - I liked the original base more, but this still looks great IMO.

Did they ever address the fact they he shouldn't be able to manipulate a Sentinel?

Nope, and that's what bothers me the most. At least if it's just a crushed head, you can argue he crushed it with something else.

I want to say that's not completely true but I'd have to research it because it's been a while. But for some reason I think the Sentinel Mark I and perhaps even a few versions after did have some metal in them. I know that the versions in Days of Future Past were completely polymer and pretty much everything after that.

They look comparable to me also.

Does anyone else get annoyed with Susan acting goofy on Sideshow Live? At one point she gets the tape measure out to measure the depth and then doesn't finish.

I wish the Bel Magneto would make another run.

I'd rather put more money into that statue ...especially now that I know this SSC Magneto is $750.

When I saw the 3D rendering of the XM Mags, I knew immediately it was one of the statues I wanted to have. When I saw the price for it ...I knew it was worth it to me.

When I saw the sculpting details on the Thanos on Throne, again I knew immediately it was one of the statues I wanted to have. When I saw the price for it ...again I knew it was worth it to me.

When I first saw the sculpt on this SSC Mags, I didn't get the same feeling. When they made tweaks on it, I thought it was a big improvement. But now that I know the price for it, I'm not getting that same "its worth it" feeling. I'm not even feeling the EX as a "must have".

So I'll pass and wait to see what becomes available later down the line. I may change my mind, but for now this is an "admire from afar" piece.
