For a cost such as this I would be excepting a design like Khalni Hydra or Primalcrux... or maybe a card like War Elemental (though it was pretty much remade as Cryptborn Horror) or Lich (and its variants)... I guess "extreme" would be the word to describe those last two.

This - and the other CCCC cards of that source post - don't fit into either of those "categories" IMO. They could easily cost 3CC without the design feeling lesser in any way. On the contrary, costs like that would feel much more appropriate for these.

EDIT: Also, from a flavor standpoint, I would be expecting something more... say, "elemental" than some humanoid. Having that intensive mana cost suggest some kind of "pure" manifestation of mana.
