The Regular version, already available in Pre-Order, has the arm with the hand in the form of a stepped conical drill. With the purpose of a genetic war between the mutants, which he considers Homo Superior, and humanity, and to forge and govern a world in his image, he began to call himself the Apocalypse.Ĭreated by Bob Layton, Jackson Guice, and Louise Simonson, and one of the most famous villains of the 1990s, Iron Studios will bring two versions of the statue. Transformed and enhanced by technology, En Sabah Nur became one of the most powerful beings in the Marvel universe, immortal, extremely intelligent, and strong, with psionic powers, able to control matter and energy, manipulate the molecular structure of his body, and change his size at will. Since then, he has evolved, expanding his powers over the centuries, his abilities to control his molecular structure enhanced by the Celestial Armor, an artifact he found on a Celestial transport spacecraft created for an advanced alien race. Adopted by a group of nomads, he survived, and with his powers of absorption, became a deity, adored by many civilizations, where he was known by many names.
Part of the X-Men\’s diorama scenario against Magneto, dominating the giant Sentinel robots, and a horde of mutated villains at his side, Iron Studios presents the \”Apocalypse – X-Men – BDS Art Scale 1/10\” statue, one of Marvel\’s most powerful mutants.īorn nearly five thousand years ago in ancient Egypt, En Sabah Nur was abandoned by his tribe because of his gray-skinned appearance and blue lines running across his lips and face due to his mutation.

Showing all his fury and power, the Eternal Pharaoh, considered the first mutant of humanity, presents himself triumphant over a base full of wreckage and pieces of mechanical parts from the remains of a robotic Sentinel. On the evidence of this offering, it might be wise to spend a little more time focusing on the core line-up at the X-mansion before looking outwards again: going home before going bigger.With his massive gray body encased in armor created by the race of cosmic giants called the Celestials, the ancient Egyptian mutant uses his ability to control his own body\’s molecules to shape his right fist into a large tapered combat drill. Quicksilver (Evan Peters) even gets to reprise his slo-mo superspeed, even if it’s not quite as thrilling as DOFP’s standout sequence.īy the end, we’re still some way from joining up with Singer’s 2000 X-Men, so there’s plenty of scope for plugging the gap. With armageddon imminent, the humour never completely disappears. Apocalypse features some surprisingly dark violence (Angel’s ‘upgrade’ will have younger viewers squirming), balanced out by some nice one-liners. With their sprawling casts, the X-Men movies have always been at their strongest in the smaller beats between the big set-pieces. And when his world-ending plan starts to come into effect, there’s little in the way of perspective to put it into context, making it hard to appreciate the magnitude of the stakes in a way that never troubled the history-specific climaxes of its predecessors. Quite why he actually needs the Horsemen is never particularly clear. Isaac has recently been proving himself one of the most versatile actors of his generation, but buried as he is under masses of make-up and impressive body armour, he’s unable to convincingly sell the baddie’s motivation or powers. Of the Horsemen, Psylocke (Olivia Munn), Storm (Alexandra Shipp) and Angel (former EastEnder Ben Hardy) certainly look the part, but there’s no time to give them anything like discernible character traits.Īpocalypse similarly fails to carve out much in the way of distinctive characteristics. The new class is also extremely appealing Tye Sheridan makes for a cooler Cyclops than James Marsden, Kodi Smit-McPhee is a spot-on Nightcrawler (turns out that bamf-ing is still a hell of a lot of fun), and Game of Thrones’ Turner brings the required poise and angst to Jean Grey. It helps that First Class was so well cast, with McAvoy, Fassbender and Lawrence slipping back into their roles with ease, bringing gravitas to go with the backstory baggage. With so many characters to serve, some are inevitably shortchanged. In fact, there’s so much going on that it becomes a bit exhausting at times, and anyone lacking a half-decent grasp of the mythology thus far should probably sit it out.
When you have a villain who’s all but omnipotent, it takes a lot of heroes to go up against him. Producer: Hutch Parker, Bryan Singer, Simon Kinberg, Lauren Shuler Donner. The action is similarly huge, from the pyramid-razing antics of the opening sequence to a final multi-mutant smackdown on a scale that dwarfs previous entries in the franchise. Apocalypse, the most powerful mutant in Marvel’s X-Men universe, tries to destroy mankind in this action-packed hit starring Michael Fassbender and Jennifer Lawrence Director: Bryan Singer.
