I'm very happy with her. This was a piece, when it was first shown, that I was initially pretty disappointed with. But, over time, it really grew on me and I ended up liking her more and more.
In hand, I love almost everything about her. The pose, IMO, is killer and perfect for Mystique. This version of her costume is hot, and I love the black leather belt and gun holsters. The EX arm is so awesome, I'm very happy I went for the EX before it went to wait list. I cannot imagine not using the EX arm 100% of the time. And while the base is pretty simple, I absolutely love the bronze-gold Xavier Institute sign that she is walking over (and with Juggernaut's fist print to boot).
With that being said, I have two issues. I said it a long time ago, and I still believe that she would have really benefited from the silencer pieces being optional/removable. She looks best on the left facing right, and the extra length of the silencer makes her a little bit harder to display in a tighter place such as next to another statue in a Besta. That being said, I did manage to get her next to Capt. Marvel. The other thing is that the EX claws are not metal.
