The next on our list is Cain Marko, the Juggernaut and also the stepbrother of Professor X of the X-Men.
Cain Marko is the son of Kurt Marko, who became Charles Xavier's stepfather
when he married Sharon Xavier after the death of her husband Brian, for which Kurt was partially responsible.
Kurt Marko starts to favor Charles, and abuses his own son, Cain. Cain begins to resent Charles and bullies him frequently.
When Cain Marko and his step-brother Charles serve in the US Army and are stationed in Korea,
Marko finds a hidden temple dedicated to the entity Cyttorak. Upon entering Marko finds and holds a huge ruby,
and reads the inscription on the stone aloud: "Whosoever touches this gem shall be granted the power of the Crimson
Gem of Cyttorak! Henceforth, you who read these words, shall become ... forevermore ... a human juggernaut!"
The gem channels Cyttorak's power into Marko. The transformation causes a cave-in, with the character buried and
presumably killed, not being heard from again until a sudden assault on the X-Men's headquarters.
Resource According to fans, Juggernaut can actually go head to head with the Hulk. Although one of the main weakness of the
Juggernaut was his vulnerability to Mental abilities [such as Charles] so he wears a helmet similar to Magneto's helmet
which is invulnerable to psychic attack. The Juggernaut skills are as follows: Regenerative healing factor, Superhuman strength, stamina, durability,
Force field generation, Virtually unstoppable momentum and of course Immunity to mental attacks via helmet.
Probably one of the coolest ML Toybiz there is, the long armed muscleman is a must have figure on your roster. Although more people
don't usually put these, they usually put an alternative - an easier Juggernaut to find in the market which is the Disney's
Marvel Select Juggernaut. Why is better? let's create a chart although I can't give you a picture of the MS since I don't have
one either but I already seen and hold it once.
| ML Toybiz Juggernaut |
Disney MS Jugernaut |
| About 6-7 inch in size |
Almost 12inch |
| Helmet is detachable |
Helemt is Fixed |
| Bulky but unproportioned arms |
Bulkier |
So, kept in mind that these are what I saw and depends on how you see the figure.
Articulation may not be the best, but this was one of the best there is. Feet, Legs, Hip, Arms, Hand and Elbow can be moved even
the thumb. Waist can swivel around and lean forward and backward. The rest of the fingers should have been moveble too.
The details are awesome! Well atleast for me - by removing the helmet you'll see a smiling Cain Marko inside. From the discolored veins to
the scratch mark on his helmet.
Well, did I say furiously smiling Cain Marko? So have I convinced you now that this is one of the best Juggernaut there is? NO?
Have you checked out the movie Jugernaut that looks like a human bullet or the XMC Juggernaut that looks like a flattend frog?
One thing I didn't like on the figure though was the helmet itself. Unlike the MS Juggy that was a little flatter - this was has an oval
shaped tip over the top which looks bad.
