The thing that makes this one so great is he starts with the power that can attach his item. (invisible woman, human torch have to take damage). He running shots and pulse waves for four. Next turn he can push to pulse wave for five or running shot back for regular 5 damage and use an x men character to heal via x men team. (cough cough marvel girl)
I'm loving the 250/125 Magneto. I love dual-point values in general. I can play Magneto as a helper, and I can play Magneto as the bad@ss that he is. Gotta get this figure!
If I didn't already own, or if I had never heard of the GSX Mags, this would be my go to Mags. However, since I have heard of GSX Mags and thankfully own him, I'll hardly play this one. Still an awesome piece, just not quite as awesome as his other version.
Yeah, this Magneto's good and all... but for 189 points instead of 250, the GSX Super-Rare Magneto is just so much more potent. I'd pay the 250 points if this one had Indomitable. Otherwise, he seems a bit over-costed.
ASK ME ONCE I’LL ANSWER TWICE JUST WHAT I KNOW I’LL TELL BECAUSE I WANNA!
SOUND DEVICE AND LOTS OF ICE I'LL SPELL MY NAME OUT LOUD BECAUSE I WANNA!
Feeling the need to pick a nit, but shouldn't the Magneto with the purple costume be the one with the Hellfire Club and New Mutants keywords? Since that was the costume he was wearing while he was the Xavier School Headmaster and Grey King of the Hellfire Club?
Yes. This really annoys me, because I was actually really excited when I saw we were getting the purple costume. He was a 'hero' for several years in the purple costume, then switched back to the red helmet when he went bad again.
A little disappointed by the dials on these, if only because they seem overpriced, and are really similar to the old pre-carded figs. Had high hopes for Mags since all the other anniversary figs were done so well.
I'm a little nervous about Storm and Phoenix now...
I certainly like the 113 point version for a cheap way to get him on the field with good stats. Only drawback is the short dial but for the points & the way it is these days, it's not exactly unexpected I guess.
The 250 pointer leaves me little reason to get him to use over the 187(?) point House of M on I have ... except to have a good version in the most iconic outfit since I don't have the GSX one.
Oh nooo, he's not as good as the GSX version, which clearly means there's no point to ever use him ever! Everyone should just shell out a hundred freaking bucks just to get one of the most popular Marvel villains there is rather than use a version that isn't as ridiculous but is much easier to get ahold of, myehhhhh!
Over-react much?
Let's Play "Whoizzit?"
My Avatar is an as-yet-un-clixed character. If you know who it is, be the first respondant to correctly identify this character I'll send you some free rep!
Other than gaining the X-men TA, the 250-pt version really doesn't bring anything to the table that would make you want to choose that version over the amazing GSX version.
