Can they make a strong magneto? Until then, Graviton is just 10000x better
Personally, I think there have been some really nice Mags in the game(GSX, AVX, the recent albeit chase in GSX to name a few faves), and for 75 pts, this guy will be great on Hellfire Club squads. Glad to see unclixed guys every time, so hope there are plenty in this set following Icarus's lead. I do hate that AOA gets another chase treatment, but hopefully there are others sprinkled in other rarity slots. Probably not, but one can hope.

Reason: spelling
I wouldn't be surprised if they add one or two other AoAin the CURSR set, like they did some KC characters. Ther are just so many to make! If it's not in this set,I'm positive we'll see some in upcoming sets, like we got rare Blink in Deadpool. Maybe the LE will be an AoA character too!

I'm also waiting for a 300 point version. I also agree that the le Graviton's dial and powers fit magneto perfectly. If the new red suited mags dial is no good I know which disl I'll be swapping to

GSX Mags is still my go to Erik. He pips AvX on points, powers, dial length, range. He doesn't have but I'm cool with that, too many figs have it any way.
For a cheaper alternative, I'm still in love with UXM 50pt Magneto
I am hoping for the following remakes of the following previously made figures, that have not yet been made with an Oreo Dial or as only a Con Exl or LE:
Vulcan
Sabretooth (traditional version, with as good as a sculpt as the GSX one).
Armor
Bastion
Goblin Queen
Mimic
Apocalypse (not as a Con Exl or LE)
Onslaught
Nemesis
Gauntlet
Mr. X.
Starjammers (Raza; Corsair; Hepzibah; and Ch'od with a larger sculpt this time).
I feel Magneto is the best one of the three, but even he is not that impressive to me. If I end up with all 3 of them, fine. If I get none of them I'll be fine also.
This bodes well for this set. Interestingly (or not), none of these are must haves.
I am swimming in Magnetos. This one is certainly good for the points but, for me, I'm not a huge fan of Magneto as part of the Hellfire Club and this version makes then HC so much better. If I pull him, I'll keep him but I don't think I'm searching him out.
Icarus - I vaguely recall the name and therefore isn't a figure I will keep, although he has a great dial.
Dark Beast - I enjoyed reading AoA when it first came out (cuz I'm really old) but the story and the idea has been so played out, I would trade him to a friend who IS an AoA fan. It is a clever and cool dial, though.
This definitely whets my appetite for more.
Visible Dials and Pushing Damage need to be optional. This is the way.
I’ll go ahead and officially file my standard frustration about highly desirable AoA figs being chases (and the flawed logic behind chases in general.)
Like Icarus and Dark Beast; yet another Magneto seems like a waste.
