Hot Toys Sentinel Jumbo Sofvi (SMS004J) Preorder

The regular face plate keeps the recognizable Sentinel expression, while the damaged option opens up the face to show the machinery beneath. Removing the face plate entirely gives you another look at that internal sculpting. The chest plates follow the same clean-versus-damaged idea, so the damage is represented by actual interchangeable parts rather than simply a different coat of paint.

The purple and gray finish also separates the large armor panels from the darker mechanical areas. In the official prototype photos, the damaged chest makes the internal detail easier to see. Those photos show the proposed finish; final production paint and details can change before release.

The eyes can switch between green and orange, letting you change the expression without replacing the entire head. Both colors belong to this one figure. The manufacturer describes the lighting as battery-powered, so this is different from the USB-powered Sentinel-head base supplied with the Beast Deluxe MMS921 figure.

If you plan to use the lights often, keep access to the head in mind when arranging the display. The announcement does not identify a USB connection, remote control or automatic shutoff for this Sentinel. Do not buy extra power accessories on the assumption that the head uses the same setup as another Hot Toys release.

The six hands cover three different displays: fists for a standing robot, open hands for the miniature or a reaching pose, and the energy-blast gesture for an attack. The official photographs show the small Doctor Doom alongside the Sentinel and held in its hand. The miniature's arms are extended, and Hot Toys has not listed interchangeable hands or articulation for that separate accessory.

For a larger Avengers: Doomsday arrangement, the Doctor Doom Ultimate Special Edition is a separate sixth-scale release. Its accessories do not become part of the Sentinel box. Check the individual inventories if you are putting together a scene with several figures.

This is a complete articulated Sentinel, rather than a broken head or hand used as another figure's base. That gives an X-Men collection an opposing character with a very different silhouette. It could make an interesting backdrop to Cyclops from Avengers: Doomsday, but the Jumbo Sofvi name does not mean the robot has been manufactured to the same stated scale as the sixth-scale team.

If your collection is already running out of room, decide where this guy will go before adding another large box to the pile. A wide attacking pose and a simple standing pose have very different space requirements. You can compare the other announced figures in our Hot Toys preorder guides while planning the rest of the lineup.
