I agree, Scarlet Witch has way more value than Psylocke.

You haven't seen Psylocke in person yet, you could hate her when you do so who knows.

I disagree. Scarlet Witch has far less value than Psylocke. :tounge:

Personally, I didn't need to see SW with my own eyes to know that I have no respect for the piece. I hated the concept since first laying eyes on it. In contrast, I have always love the concept of this Psylocke piece since its unveiling. I even loved it with freaky eyebrows, and will love it even more without them.

Well you're allowed to disagree silly
I have Psylocke ordered and I'm still undecided if I want to keep her or not. She could really turn out amazing and I would choose Scarlet Witch still. I think for me it's the fact I like Scarlet Witch's character more than Psylocke is all.

I've seen them both in person, and I think that Psylocke is a much better sculpture. That, of course, is just what I personally think.

Have you ever imagined a world with no hypothetical situations?

Sure, she has a sword....and....she is reclining/sitting. Personally, if you wanted a statue to focus on her being a "ninja" I think a more dynamic pose should have been used.

The thing is, I think every Psylocke statue I've seen so far has the psyblade and it doesn't look like energy. It looks like frozen plastic or something. Koto has the best psyblade so far but I need to see it up close. I think most would think Psylocke is a ninja in the statue. The sword, costume, red sash, and Japanese setting. What else could she be?
Also, I don't think a mutant statue has to show their powers. Does Cyclops' visor need to glow? Does Storm have to have lightning bolts around her? Does Emma need to be in diamond form or need some kind of suggestion of her mind powers? I think a good artist/designer can imply a lot of things.

I think that's why a switch out katana/psiblade on both hands will rock. Then if you don't like either you can switch around. Hopefully they do that for the PF.
