For me would be the Kotobukiya Colossus

No Colossus is a true Colossus without the chrome/metallic finish imho, that' why I can't stand Sideshow's offerings when it comes to Colossus and Iron Man. They can't nail the damned metallic finish properly, it's unsettling.

Love the concept. Can't wait to see samples.
Hopefully, you guys will consider a COH for Arch Angel, preferably Apocylaypse's horsemen.



While not comic accurate, AA never battled a Sentinel as Death, still would be a pretty cool sight. Also please don't forget Havok.

Judging by that concept pic, when XM Studios said that the sentinel will be about 1 meter, they may actually mean the statue will be 1 meter tall hunched over. It'll be epic considering large 1/6 scale statues are about 15-17 inches with base.

It doesn't matter about the cost because it's epic. This display diorama will be the center piece of all collections. Dream realized.

It's going to be:
12 X-men @ $300 + $100 shipping = $4800
2 sentinels @ $700 + $300 shipping = $2000

Grand total $6800 give or take a few 100s.

Pricey? Outrageous. But this is the one to rule them all.

I haven't purchased anything from the other company lately, and it looks like all of my money is going to XM Studios. Creativity, quality control, and giving a darn about their products is why XM is getting my money now. OK, so I'm still going to buy the occasional PCS, but not a completist.

Being from Europe I wouldn't calculate shipping yet, because hopefully XM will have a distributor in place by then. So I am counting on about 2000 euros per set, that is a lot of money but given what you get (in statues and quality) it isn't that expensive. I have a whole year to safe up my money and no other pre orders for me coming year. Hopefully a payment plan could help out a bit as well

I hope the sentinel comes with pieces to hide the places where you would attach the all the X-Men, in the event you can't get the whole set, it would be nice to display the sentinel with the X-men you want (or have) without it looking like your obviously missing pieces.

Regardless this is going to be epic .... now who do I have to sleep with to secure an order
