Whatever the feelings regarding the specific era referenced by this statue, it's still a phenomenal intrepretation of the character. XM's style is characterized by frequent artistic licence. And it's these flourishes that set their work apart from the competition. The fact that XM are now including the additional 'classic' torso shows a genuine commitment to please their fans. I for one will definitely be adding this fabulous piece to my collection!

Arm down pose for the switch-out classic body would have been perfect, such a shame they didn't go with that look.

100% agree! 
I'm still hopeful that they will consider this an option. Maybe a switch out option.
The arm down look is 100% win!

LOVE it. Extra body looks awesome. Curious how it'll look on the body. Only criticism I have is the outstretched arm in the base competes with Tony's. That could change with painting, though.
Definitely picking this one up. Great job, XM.

A few things I'm not 100% sold about:
-the arms anatomy. Bicep is still where the elbow joint should be. Wrists look extra thin while the forearm armor is huge.
-unmasked head effectively looks a tad small
-the new base, I really preferred the mechanic gear

ugh This is the thing about XM I don't like. Not seeing a final product before having to make a decision really sucks. The 'classic' torso is great. I like it so much more.

I assume your referring to Simply Toys? How are they filled up? There's nothing on the website regarding this piece.
This will be my first XM piece and man is it a pain in a$$ to figure the protocol to get one to the US. Ive emailed three companies, BBTS doesn't deal anymore and Maxicollector nor ST has responded to emails from last week 
Whats a guy gotta do!?

ST has got a few for elite members to early Pre order, its this slot which was filled up, I managed to order she hulk ms marvel and thor like that, but since Black bolt most of the previews shown are already filled up with early pre order for elite members,
