I own the Sentinel Deluxe #2, which includes Magneto and Juggernaut (IS uses the exact same sculpting for the Sentinel and solo proximity pieces). I also own Sideshow’s Juggernaut Maquette and their exclusive Magneto Maquette. I can definitely say that there is nothing wrong with IS’s Juggernaut.
The IS Magneto comes with a helmeted and no helmet sculpt regardless of acquisition as the solo piece or Sentinel companion. He is definitely derpy but the helmeted version helps hide it.
Because these pieces are small, it is far less devastating if the human sculpts miss the mark compared to quarter scale collecting. But there are a lot of human sculpts I am very happy with. Cable, Storm, and Psylocke are all pretty great, for example.
