Scarlet Witch looks even better than the prototype pictures. Fingers crossed for the production pieces.

Really? There goes that.

Can't wait for Iceman.

Is Lady Deadpool really part of the X-men universe? I know Deadpool is but not Wanda Wilson.

Was it really a miss? I was only going to collect the ladies (minus Domino who I didn’t like after seeing up close) and am tempted to get Wolvie and Magneto after seeing Iceman.

From what I understand, Lady Deadpool is simply a female version of Deadpool, including their mutant powers. (I know she's from a different reality.)

It depends on your on personal standards. There are people who own Magneto and are happy with how it turned out. It was an easy pass for me.

Magneto looks okay, but I'd be concerned about leaning or breakage issues since the statue is held aloft by only two contact points on the cape.

Reason I ask is ‘coz am on the fence whether to keep my Marvel Bishoujo of her. I have the Scarlet Witch one as well. Since the DST Marvel premier line isn’t as consistent as Kotobukiya’s, I might just stick to the main X-men. I even returned Domino whose portrait I very much did not like.

So far am holding off on getting Magneto. Thanks for your input.

Good point. Although the alternative (which I assume is a vertical rod) would’ve been an eyesore. I (or to be more politically correct, the OC part of me) hate(s) statues with vertical rods with a passion. Lol

For me, I like the domino statue by DST. The paint apps could be better but on mine, the paint apps on domino itself is not an issue. The paint apps on the machine by her leg should be better. I may just repaint that part when I have a chance.

Full disclosure, my Domino did have a poor paint job around the eyes which is the main reason why I returned it. I never bothered to ask for a different one because after seeing it in person I just wasn’t digging the portrait, something about the shape of the face — the jaw is assymetric and lopsided (at least from mine and ones i’ve Seen on videos).
