Pretty sure that the capes for the prototype are hand made.

The production, however, is definitely not hand made!

how do they sew in the wires for the capes? I assume that's done by hand, no?

As long as it looked good i'd be happy lol

Except the hair on the exclusive head. The big poofy hair looks dumb. I really wish they’d scale it back or get a look closer to what Jim Lee did because they missed the mark on that part.
Personally love the hair, actually prefer the unmasked portrait to the regular.

A conclusion is simply the place where you got tired of thinking.

This piece has grown on me. No way I can spend the amount that the XM Magneto commands so this will do until a better purple/red Magneto comes along.

Not sure if this has been discussed yet, but the regular edition has been set at 2,500.

So, looking like there will be 3,750 "maquettes" out there.

I've had this EX reserved for a while, but man, I keep waffling on this one.

Sometimes I like it.

Sometimes I think this just isn't my Magneto.

In either case, damn SS for not going metallic on the helmet.
