A few months back we saw a post on Facebook from a local comic book store for loose "Steel Mutants". The post advertised them for $1.50 each which seemed like a "steel". A couple of days later we headed into the shop in order to see what was left. The staff hadn't displayed them yet and then wanted twice as much per figure! Once we reminded them of the Facebook post they honored the original price. We regretfully only picked up four of the X-Men figures. Of the one's that we left were Magneto and Professor X (we weren't thinking!).
These are the four that we picked up:

| Watch out! |
 |
| Photobomb! |
|
|
|
|
 |
| Pick a card! |
 |
| Saved the "beast" for last |
|

The paint quality exceeded our expectations. The surface is glossy and has a nice sheen. Also, there are no scratches or chips on the figures we picked up. Not all of the figures contain articulation (Gambit), but they can stand on their own, which is nice for display. Since they are metal they also have a nice weight to them. We are personal fans of die cast/metal figures. We also have some Star Wars ships and figurines that we plan on displaying in a later post!
