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

same here. The 1/3 piece is awesome, but only interested in the 1/4 scale line. And I'm still bummed out on that deathsroke pf...ugh

Wow I’m really disappointed. I’m a Sideshow fanboy and generally overlook certain aspects that detract from a figure because on a whole they do an amazing job. But this… skinny Magneto with a large mismatched bucket on his head and funny belt and shoulder pads. Why do they feel the need to mess so much with the original design. It should be called a Marquette for all the creative license that has been taken. I’m surprised Marvel even approved it.

SS is playing the long game with Magneto... like Sonja, Spidey, Wolverine etc. this 1/4 scale iteration will be the first of many. Why sell a Magneto PF to collectors once when they can sell it many times over, with each being slightly improved on the last?

As Igo himself wrote... 'its ok', and that is being kind. In this era of collecting ok just doesn't cut the mustard.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

I still think he looks great. That video highlights his greatness even more.

His pecs are a bit boobish, that's my only criticism. Maybe he drinks a lot of milk.

I have to say i like the realism of this one. Never understood why an old man would be built like the Hulk. This is just more realistic and highlights his actual power more. I might consider picking this up.

Best comment I've read in a long time.

Yup, that's what I was saying quite a few posts before. Everyone and their uncle is ripped in comics.

But isn't that the point? It's a fantasy world where people have powers and special abilities.

But you don't have to be ripped to move things around with your mind. When everyone's a WWF wrestler it just takes away a bit from this fantasy world to me.
