I received it yesterday and I must say this is a really impressive piece, definitely the most spectacular statue I ever owned. None of the dozen of pictures and videos I watched before I saw it in person do actually make it justice, it is truly the most beautiful piece I have in my collection, it is the perfect Magneto statue for me, both in the artistic direction and in the flawless production piece.
It has an incredible presence, the sentinel head is noticeably detailed with the spikes which show the magnetic powers cleverly, Magneto feels really like he's flying, the cape is outstanding I'm not a fan of fabric cape but this one is huge, very poseable and of great quality, it really makes the statue pop.
Let's talk about the two heads now, first the helmet head is great, beautifully painted, the lack of metallic touch doesn't bother me at all. Then the exclusive one, I had a crush on this one the first time I saw it and I was so anxious Sideshow could mess it up, and thank god it didn't happen ! This head is stellar, perfectly painted, the most detailed head I ever saw from a Sideshow piece. The shading in the hair, the skin's texture and the eyes, everything is just amazing, clearly my favorite exclusive option to date !
You might have understand I am very happy with this statue, it is the Magneto I was waiting so long for.
PS : thank you for reading me until the end, I know this was a long post
