The sculpt has me expecting the life-size Magneto to be pudgy and standing 5' 4" in his bootheels. Was the sculptor inspired by someone who appeared in costume at a comics convention? The paint job on this one (hopefully rushed for the pic) isn't helping. (As you've seen one, DaLuvster, is most of the problem an unfortunate trick of the paint job?)
The pose itself is good, and the torso appears to be well done, but the head and limbs seem lacking. (Before someone else says it, yes, it's probably better than I'd be able to do it, but I'm not trying to make a living at it.)
Originally posted by albinus It would look a heck of alot better if the inside of his mask was darkened in so you couldn't see his face, and he didn't look like he was being eaten by a giant fruit roll-up.
Now THAT was funny!!
It's a nice sculpt although you can add me to the list that prefers the IC sculpt of Magneto; this one just doesn't look as foreboding.

You know, now that you mention it, he did look a bit short.
But, I think the main problem is the two-dimensional nature of the pic. I remember being really impressed with his cape, mostly - maybe if you were to hop over to the Wizkids site and use the little rotating arrow thing under their pictures there, you'll see what I mean... Or maybe not...
