This looks disappointing, especially the candy apple red paint apps. XM has got to tweek this one in order to save it.

More interested in that sick looking Spider-Man, that thing looks epic. Can’t wait for the paint apps on that one

That's my question too.
Not familiar with this character, but really surprised by the red color choice. Or maybe Juggy wants to attend a street car show.

XM made possibly my favourite looking Iron Man piece (even if it failed to light up).
The piece appeared to make use of a shade of red that was on the bright side.

This statue needs more color. The doorway he is smashing through should have more color variety. The pose is good, paint is uninspiring.

Yep, his legs and torso colour blends in too much with the surrounding base, he should be a bit more Red but not the candy apple, shiny new car Red they used for his helmet.

XM said the pink/candy apple Red colour will be sorted out apparently.

Also keep in my mind that these 1/7 impact series aren’t even XM statues. They are promoting another company like sideshow does.

Thanks for sharing this video Majestic1, I really liked it.

Juggernaut's colors are based on the crimson red of the Crimson Cosmos, the domain of the fearsome ancient deity Cyttorak.
When I looked at the color scheme , it reminded me of the classic outfit of Juggernaut:







I am looking forward to see how the helmet will look after it has been repainted and I am sure that this piece will deliver a mean punch once ready!
Together with the upcoming Sideshow Maquette and the Iron Studios Wolverine vs Juggernaut dio, this piece will be the cherry on the cake in my collection.

Once I have acquired these three pieces I am ready to take a step back and stop collecting (I have almost completely run out of space).

I love love love this 1/7 line. The concepts for them are just mind blowing to me. This is what statue making should be about...showing or representing a superhero's power(s). The concept is great, the sculpt is great, the base and the details is great!

Now lets get to the part that needs work...the paints. I think we all pretty much agree there are things XM can do to make this pop much more. In addition to the alteration of Juggernaut's helmet and belt / waist area...I think what would really sell this is a complete color change or partial color change of the base. I feel the base should have much more color variation and maybe have a more stone color (whites, grays, littered with splintered brown wood parts and red brick). What is there now is too saturated and does not show enough differentiation.

That Spiderman looks extra special and I can already tell even though Thor is my favorite comic character...that Iceman is going to be epic mastery!!
