I still haven't bitten on Maximum Hulk even discounted at 40 bucks. I kinda regret Maximum Spidey cos I don't use 90% of what he came with and I like the overall build of the previous generation of Spideys better.I wouldn't have glanced twice at Maximum Deadpool without Doop. I would, however, give Thor a long look because I really don't have THE Thor I want in my collection, and I do think Magneto could be fun to do in a Maximum style (lots of twisted metal and a wired cape maybe?).

I think we'll get Magneto with a rubber chest before we get Magneto with a wired cape from Hasbro for $60. The twisted metal pieces I can see, but knowing Hasbro I'm convinced half will be reissued Hulk pack-ins. "Anyone want two pieces of a missile in a different color of gray?"

I'll take a look at the Magneto when it shows, but I'm not inspired by any of those Maximum offerings. Hasn't Spidey's black suit had enough reuse lately? I realize it's popular but good grief, whats the change? They're going to paint the bottoms of his feet blue and send it back out?

Please. They'd never spend money on paint.

If not a wired cape for Magneto, maybe at least swappable soft goods and plastic ones. Or just a design built so that it's easy to give him the cape we all want. I feel like some of the scuttlebutt for a gamerverse version was the possibility of that force bubble effect they had for him at the show where they revealed Apocalypse.

For me it's mostly about the build and an unmasked head. I want the Magneto from the two-page splash at the opening of Jim Lee's X-Men#1. I would prefer a cape that would allow him to sit down so I can give him a throne, but I'd settle for a stellar base with a good head sculpt. The signature villains we've been getting for a few years I feel have been pretty good. Classic Ultron, Kang, and Dr. Doom were all beautiful sculpts. The new Kingpin is a delight. They were so close with 97 Magneto to the perfect one for me, but he's a smidge short and I'm not fond of the masked head. But he's so close.
