Yes b/c Dark Phoenix has a few offerings and Sideshow is rolling out a Cable. You'll at least be able to get them for retail within the next year. Just my opinion though.
I'm to the point where I'm convinced they'll nearly all be had for less than PO due to the volume of Statues being released/variety in formats/steep price increases, so I won't be the one donating my money for others to turn a mint when the market supply/price balance is clear.

I was hyped up for this statue and planned on getting it. But after seeing the videos and photos my excitement is gone.

Wrong you’ll never get XM cable for retail ever. None of the EXs and if you think sideshow is going to produce a statue of XM exclusives caliber you’re dreaming .

2 sentences containing way too many absolutes. The market is quickly becoming saturated and pricing is out of control. Watch how it moves.

It doesn’t matter . I collect comic books and market has been saturated for years and prices keep climbing . It’s been 2 years and all XM exclusives sell above retail as does magneto

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

If you want some of these statues just resign yourself to the fact that you are going to have to pay a lot of money.
OR you can wait 4-5 years with the hope that they drop back down to retail price.

If I end up getting this statue it will definitely be the version with the modern floating wheel chair and not this version.

This statue is one of the ones i had the most interest in but ended up turning out badly, not sure which is worse this or gambit. XM should def rework these.
