One of the icon of strength and brute force of the X-Men universe - Juggernaut, unlike other mutants in the series, received his power by possessing power from Cyttorak's gem. In a way, Juggernaut is not actually a mutant, rather a manifestation of powerful mystical being. A step brother of Prof. X - his real name is Cain Marko, and become the bully of Charles Xavier.
Now that we have through with the grim history of this bully, we can focus on the action figure itself. For me - this might be the best Juggernaut action figure ever made. The sculpture of this figure is amazing - represents almost the real comic version.
The muscle looks amazing, the ratio of the hands and torso though looks unrealistic for real life - but really brings out the mean strength Juggernaut is representing. Even the face expression is near perfect.
There might be only few poses this figure can do - but being a Juggernaut, what more poses do you need besides charging, standing, punching, or showing of how buffed it is. This figure looks strong and ready to charge at everything on its path - and that's all that matters.
Tone color is pretty accurate and detail. Painting with tone color not far from the color of various chocolate milk bar, it actually giving you what would it be like when a comic drawn character is bring to life. And for me it is perfect.
Another thing that I really loved with this figure is how heavy it is. Now - this may a variant opinion, but I think for a character with so much power, the weigh on this thing only support the opinion. I actually like how heavy it is when I'm holding it.
Marvel Select and Diamond Select made an excellent figure with this one. It may not comes with many accessories, but I really don't care about it. This thing felt like the behemoth among its variant, and this is by far the best Marvel Select figure I have seen.
