That's a REALLY muscular Iceman. Even though he's no longer a teen, and no longer the youngest X-Man, I don't think I would ever be able to picture Bobby being that ripped!
Heck, if you told me that was Superman and the hair, cape, belt, and boot details hadn't been sculpted yet, I'd have no reason to think otherwise. He's like a tank!

I agree, Brad. Does Bobby not have that "chiseled" look any longer?

Iceman should be built like Spider-Man - sleek and lithe, like he's fast moving even when he's standing still. There should be some subliminal signal in his build that tells you how dynamic, playful, and graceful he is - he does, after all, "skate" around on twisting winding and spiraling slides everywhere he goes!
That image you posted is great - he looks powerful, but he also looks like he could move at great speed with grace. That statue makes him look like he'd be the one punching through the wall instead of riding in on a crest of ice after Colossus makes his entrance.

Yeah, I liked the Beast. I thought his hands were a tiny, bit smallish... but you would know that better than me, JB. Maybe I'm wrong...?
Wish these statues didn't have to look so angry... I guess it's in style...

Were it not for the snowball in his hand I'd think it was Archangel. I can
totally imagine big stainless wings behind him.

Upcoming DC Bishoujos seen at Toy Fair 2012: 
[Anime News Network] With the Yen / Dollar exchange being what it is, I might order the Power Girl through my LCS and just the pay the additional sales tax, rather than getting it direct from Japan instead.... (Will have to wait to see the actual sculpt though)

Those Presidential Monsters are pretty funny. I think that Beast statue could make it into my small (I like to say selective) collection. It looks great so far.
