Or they could have just kept going non-stop. Magneto could most likely keep it moving if engines are down and Storm could help create lift. Lol. The what-ifs in the movie is practically endless.
The Sentinels are overpowered, just like Magneto.
I don't see how Mystique's blood allowed them to give the Sentinels power absorbing abilities. Mystique looks like other people, she doesn't take their powers. In the first X-Men when she's disguised as Wolverine, Logan cuts off her (claws) and in reality, ripped off parts of her bare knuckle (then stabs her). The Sentinels should just be able to look like other mutants, right? Like the T-1000.
It would have made sense if they took Rogue's blood for them, but they didn't. They just had to get Jennifer Lawrence in that plot point too.
Spoiler:Trask overestimated Mystique's power. When he saw her mimicking people he really thought she was taking on all of their attributes. She was used to kickstart the Sentinel program as we saw in the movie but their transformation powers were limited until Rogue was captured many years later. In the current "future" Rogue is incarcerated and her blood is what allows the Sentinels their super power absorbing abilities. In the extended cut Charles, Magneto, and possibly Iceman go off to try and rescue her so that she can absorb Kitty's power and keep Logan in the past if Kitty dies due to blood loss.
So the future Sentinels are actually all powered by Rogue's DNA but Singer decided that it just didn't need to be spelled out in the theatrical cut.
Did they film a rescue of Rogue sequence?
Bought it the moment it went up on the site. Not only is it the best Jackman sculpt so far but its the closest costume we've gotten to the comics version. It only took 14 years to finally see the orange, yellow and blue on Jackman's person.
Also as others have said, the purchase of this figure will definitely influence other figures in the line. If this figure sells we may get a line comparable to Avengers.
There's so much they can do with this license, specially if they do 2-packs:
McAvoy Xavier & Stewart Xavier
Fassbender Magneto & McKellen Magneto
Hoult Beast and Grammer Beast
Mark II Sentinel and Mark X Sentinel
Plus the solo figures:
Mystique
Quicksilver
Trask
Colossus
Storm
Blink
Bishop
Sunspot
Warpath
Kitty Pryde
Iceman
I'd buy all of them, at $250 or more.
Repped for a great first post
Besides, I love how most of the members here don’t see when they’re getting ripped off, anyone buying that, “diecast” Robocop, or that Iron Man Heatbreaker is getting raped just as hard as anyone that buys this Wolverine.
Sales of this figure bears no influence on the rest of a line, that is the Hot Toys creed.
They should have thrown in a sleeping beauty, closed eyes head and the slab he lays on for $315.

Haha, speaking of it being "movie accurate" I guess they could've thrown in a sleeping head if they really wanted to make the most out of the figure.There's nothing else this figure could have come with, it's bare bones because it's movie accurate. What else did you want, a samurai sword and a suit? Ha ha.
