One of the easiest passes in the history of passing. Looks like a big plastic action figure.

That costume is awful as well. Easy pass.

I love the character and I actually don't mind this uniform in the comics. But I can't get with this piece on any level and I can't fully understand why.

Now that you mention it, this is a big reason. But there's something about the sculpt itself, too.

My favorite X-Man. The proportions are off. His head is weird, lower arms and hands are too thick, lower legs are the same. Even though he is stepping on something with his left leg, his foot looks very stiff as if he was an action figure and posed, then set on a hard surface. Costume is shiny, not like material or metal but like plastic. The Baron Strucker looking guy takes up way too much of the total sculpt which will limit the angle that you can display him in. Overall just bad from top to bottom.

Its very hard for me to find a colossus I don't like. But that costume while accurate to what was worn in comics at one point is terrible. Also with Sideshow and XM putting out fantastic Colossus statues (heck Iron studios in 1/10th) the bar is higher than ever for the character. Hopefully they can at least tweak but man this is gonna be tough.

I applaud them for actually doing something different and doing costumes and looks that aren't being done elsewhere tbh...

I collect action dioramas, but this would be the biggest and I don't think it's center piece material. Maybe if it was 1/6th. Good effort though
