Following the success of last year’s Transformers Unicron project and its inaugural crowdfunding effort for the Star Wars: The Vintage Collection Jabba’s Sail Barge, Hasbro has activated the HasLab platform once again.

The HasLab Marvel Legends Series X-Men Marvel’s Sentinel action figure stands a massive 26.3 inches tall and features an internal frame comprised of 260 individual pieces. The Sentinel contains LED lights in its head and chest, and boasts 72 points of articulation — 20 in each hand alone — and comes with an 18-inch tentacle accessory and a Marvel Legends Series 6-inch Bastion figure with alternate Sentinel Prime head.
