Here's the painted version of Dazzler.

I think they could improve the hair a bit, but otherwise, count me in!

Hm. I wonder if that upraised hand would make her too tall for my shelves?

(That could be my excuse for not buying one!)

Amazing that Dazzler is in her "classic" costume, while the Beast is a cat-
man. [sigh]

Or Havok is in that ridiculous costume he's wearing.

Exactly, Matt. I'm ashamed to admit I bought Havok because I felt I needed to have him next to Polaris.He's been my only concession, though.

I get it.  My only concession has been The Leader.  Crappy costume and bubble headed, but I wanted a Hulk villain plus I like the character.

Not sure what you mean by this, Ryan. Gladiator is/was pretty much a
normal sized humanoid -- he's not on the scale of Galactus or the Sentinels.

No no, just after recent, overly large normal figures like Deathlok and Moon Knight, I would like to see a powerhouse like Gladiator to be bulkier than older, relatively slim figures like Cap, Namor, etc.

I don't find Deathlok and Moon Knight to be overly large.  Stand either one of them next to Luke Cage.  Same height.  They're both just slightly taller than The Falcon. I've got them next to Spider-Woman and Ms Marvel and they look in proper perspective relative to the women's height.  I just put Captain America next to those two and he's the same height as Moon Knight and only slightly shorter than Deathlok, which makes sense.
