I thought Mr. Sosa said one of the differences is that the XM crew go to the factory various times during production to check up on things. Not sure if SS does that. I'm not saying they dont, I just dont know if they do or not.

Heard XM even conduct courses for the factory painters to ensure they apply the same techniques or something like that?

When you are small, you are always more focus and produce better end products I guess

So many questions that have already been answered ...lol. Yes XM pays their workers more than the going rate, but they only use one factory. They also have sent their master painters over to the factories to teach the workers how to achieve the same results on their production pieces as they did on their prototypes. Now, what impresses me even more is that when asked by the factory workers if they could use the same techniques on products from other companies, XM said to for it. So yeah the GHulk owners may easily have benefited from the XM techniques. XM has the best attitude when it comes to this one; they want everyone to have AMAZING collectible no matter what company makes them, and they are will to share their techniques to do that. Finally, if I am not mistaken, EVERY piece is sent back to the XM facility in Singapore where it is inspected, and if their are any paint issues an XM master fixes them right then and there. All these awesome attitudes and XMs smaller size allow them to bring these amazing pieces to their fans, and thier general attitude may very well raise the quality of other companies as well. Honestly, I have never heard of a company allowing their workers to improve the products of their competitors just so that the customers as a whole could get a better product. All in all XM is all full of awesome.
