pricing and labeling aside, this is a great looking piece. I personally love fully sculpted pieces but a fabric cape can look just as good is posed correctly. I've got the IS Vader and several of the P1 Batman statues with fabric capes and they look great.
IMO the pose and presence of this Magneto is awesome, can't wait to get it in hand, hope it ships soon!

Obviously pricing aside it looks fantastic. The neck seam doesn't bother me because it looks natural since its where his suit stops and his skin starts. If the piece ends up looking this good in hand its going to obviously sell out just like Wolverine (ex). Still would have liked this piece for $600-$650 though. One more payment and it's mine.
Also I wonder if SSC realizes the pictures of Magneto on the site are all stretched and screwed up.

I have had it flexed simply because Magneto is my favorite character. That being said it doesn’t deserve the price tag and overall it’s kinda just ok. Has no wow factor which is sad.

This piece looks fantastic. It’s my final Marvel piece so I’m quite excited.
The colour is vibrant.
The COH looks great.
Regular portrait looks fantastic.
The base is excellent.
The pose is outstanding and could not have been done with a sculpted cape.
It will sell fo4 less down the line. I want the EX on this and I want this piece soon rather than later.

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

This is another instance where SSC should just re-price this piece to a PF and be done with it. It should've been priced as a PF from the beginning anyway.

I like how the cape is perfectly posed right out of the box in the unboxing video.
