A lot less hassle for them I'm sure. I liked the coin but its not a deal breaker.

Nope, no biggie. The coin was never a deal breaker.

Next time it is the foam, then the packaging or the quality control or the edition size. XM started the line with the coins. If they take it away it is a loss and i bet prices won't be cheaper because of it. We have honored XM for making things different from other companies. Sideshow was once beloved too until things went lazy, cost oriented and downhill. It is testing people, what a company can do.

But as of now we should take this with a grain of salt, since there is no official announcement, but if it is true i am very sad seeing XM doing something like this.

If the coins go away...I am okay with. As soon as I see QC, foam or ES increases (>999) degrades, then I am done. As an international collector, I am paying a lot to collect these statues and I expect XM to give us the best. Please don't end up like SS.

Exactly.

If you saw a heat wave, would you wave back?

Yep! And I have no worries about that happening. The coin was never a concern for me.

I think you are reading too much into it. No need to loose sleep for a cool but worthless coin.

Was told by one of the resellers. Says he heard it straight from the horses mouth. Just nothing officially announced yet.
