Sentinel Maquette .....

[Collectorcol]

What's with all the high price comments? Nothing has been revealed...

It won't be cheap though.

Well, SSC has it labeled as a maquette. They did the same thing with Galactus. They are now incorporating comic version statues into the maquette line that was basically the domain of movie statues. They are the ones that are causing the confusion. That said, anyone who looks at the pics of either Galactus or this Sentinel should be able to tell it's a comic version statue and not a movie version. This Sentinel doesn't look anything like the movie Sentinel. The body and color scheme is clearly comic based. As for Galactus...well, his movie appearance was a joke and there can be no mistaking that the maquette is the comic version of him. SSC basically turned the maquette line into an anything goes line. Any version of a character they want and in any scale.

Agree completely

I can't keep up with these labels anymore. They need to keep it by size: '1/5' or '1/3,' etc.

I really like, from what I can tell, his body design but I hate that face. I wish it looked like the first Build-a-figure Marvel Legends Sentinel. It would've been an instant PO for me.

I just saw this... I am so intrigued. I hope it's HUGE!

Roughly the same size as Galactus according to Igo.

That's what she said.

I think now Maquette are just for characters that are so huge that they can't be anything remotely close to 1:4 1:6 or so... hence why Galactus, Sentinel, Chernabog a future Balrog, Smaug....

That's what she said.

Pardon me, but she didn't have to hope.

i for one will be out if this is an open ES…that to me is a huge turn off, especially with this anticipated price point.

If I had gone the Koto 1/6 Danger room X-Men route (and I almost did) this would be a dream come true.

 

[CF79]

Hell throw in 1/6 Bowen's for that matter.

 

[Chapter 2099]

I have a feeling they will go with an open edition size. Can't be for sure of course, but can't see why they wouldn't on these big pieces. Seems to be the new trend.

 

[wanderlai]

A terrible, terrible trend. A pox on you OE.

Is this coming out tomorrow

 

[Collectorcol]

Nope. Only teased.
Grey Hulk tomorrow.

 

[Chapter 2099]

Listen to Chucky. I agree.

Damn you for mentioning that. Now I'm gonna have to track all of those down. I passed up on a Colossus for like $125 a couple years ago. Really wish I hadn't.
