It's a difficult base to defend. Indefensible really.

Not a fan of the base either. But it’s saving grace is that it is simple. I can overlook it. Can’t say the same for the overcrowded Emma PF base. But, I understand how an ugly base can turn you off.

Matching base theme don't matter to me much. I look at the statue itself first and foremost.

Still need to see this in person, but I'm in!

I've been looking to get a 1/4 scale Pyslocke to replace my Koto version, and this one is definitely tempting, but the Koto base is WAY better, so I'm conflicted. I really love everything else about this piece though, so we'll see what they price this at before I can truly decide.

Lol,

"we want the bases to match, they tell a story!"

"Except that one"

The portrait looks agreeable from the new pics!

I'm less enamoured with the base though. It also looks like it's going to be too tall to fit in a besta.

Emma's base is a pure horror sure and gaudy. You passing on her?

I like Psylocke's base and statue. So this is good-to-go for me. But I'm also not a base purist. Plus SS is all over the place with whether the is related to the brotherhood or sentinels or the danger room.

I still like her but I think it would be a nice option if the kinetic portion of the base was an optional piece and she could just be displayed on the disc.
