I decided if I don't love it 100% it will be a pass. The line will never be complete now. But money saved!
It doesn't matter. Sideshow doesn't complete any of its Marvel lines. Lee X-MEN PFs line, Avengers PFs line, X-MEN COMs line, Spidey line, and the Fantastic Four PF line have all been abandoned. This one will be abandoned as well. It's only a matter of time.

Seems you were right, I remember you said this awhile back, not that i mind the spiderman reboot though, seems they dropped motu as well, not marvel but a dropped line non the less. I think they'll go a bit further wth xmen maybe another 5.

I like it, only wish mystique had the guns she has in the print.

Only wish Mystique was the Mystique in the print.

I've really grown to love this piece to the point where my only complaint on it is the circlet on her head should be gold. But, that is probably an easy fix.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

I really like her skintone here and her facial expression, that smirk while walking towards you is just menacing. Mystique is just one classy villain and I believe SS managed to capture her perfectly.

They nailed that part, i especially love the sculpt of the fabric wrapping around the form of her arms and body and wrinkling in the boots.

It's surprising how much this statue grows on you. I ended up caving in and preordering this. I love the attitude and grace this Mystique statue has and shows. I also initially didn't like her skin tone much but somehow I have grown to really love it. Ex ended up being not too bad (I still would have preferred alternate head sculpt tho) since I will be getting X-23 as well.
