Let's give XM the benefit of the doubt. The helmet will be gun metal, we will have clear resin that looks like water all over and it will be thee greatest statue XM has done to date IMO. I got a strong belief this sucker will be bigger deal than XM's Cable.

This will go down as an absolute epic statue.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

I personally thought the paint job on the arms were just ok. I understand they were going for a weathered look, but I still think the black lines and overall application could've been done a little cleaner. Also, I'm used to the arm being shiny in the comic books during the early 90's era so I personally love that look. I have to hurry up and get mine repainted.

I agree with this, when I got my Cable that was my only minor complaint, the black lines could've been cleaner.. But I prefer the matte finish and I'm happy XM didn't go with the chrome or shiny finish on the arm.

Yup, matte or shiny is personal preference of course, but the black lines are a bit of an eye sore up close. Same goes for my MK7, pretty sloppy black lines.

Tall order in being one of best:

Magneto
Ghost Rider
Hulk Buster
Cable

The problem I have with this piece and others XM has done is it's a diorama more than a stand alone statue. I like they are telling a story with the whole piece and you get a lot bang for your buck in material but they are so hard to display in a theme manner. Setting up X Men teams or others gets tough.

They have produced great stand alone statues

Venom
Lizard
Cable
Captain America

Etc etc . If you need that big laboratory with weapon x so be it but I def don't.

If it's a base coat I'm not sure why it would already have the gold accents and water effects on top. The water really does look great.
I hope everyone who has this on order gets what they want from the helmet.
