Are the bolts are just pointless decoration? I have been lead to believe not because in several comics, and the animated series, we have seen Rogue/Colossus/Nightcrawler not be able to just pull the bolted helmet off. So it’s gotta be attached to something, right?!

While the man is unstoppable, his suit confounds me. I don’t understand how it works! It’s just like how does the helmet have a furrowed brow?! Does the cyttorak has this much magic to make these events logical?!

The helmet is bolted to a circular track, which is then attached to the rest of his suit, that uses barrings to allow movement.

The furrowed brow, you're on your own with that one.

Would people buy if this statue was $1599? I pre-ordered the doomsday EX, so I imagine a few hundred more for this popular and bigger statue will likely happen.

And the suit's made of? Leather? So - weakest link in the chain, as they say. No need to rip bolts off... a pair of scissors will do.

Hey I didn't design it, lol. Comic based logic doesn't always translate that well to to reality.
