It's been discussed repeatedly, ss never had X-Men off limits. SSAlex has mentioned this over and over again:

As for Sideshow and X-Men and Fantastic Four items...I haven't received word that we're to stop moving forward with anything that might be on the horizon from those properties but what remains the case right now could change tomorrow.

Right now I know a good line-up of items that are estimated to be in people's hands through early 2017. There are far more items that go beyond that that could very well include more Spider-Man and X-men pieces (actually I am aware of one X-men piece that should be up for order before the end of the year).

Honestly, I felt the same way until I got the statue in hand. In person, I love it. The pose works.

So glad this is being revealed. It was so hard to keep secret!!!!! OMG!
I AM DEFINITELY IN. This will make the COTD price increase, and inability to buy those pieces anymore, easier.(yes, still sad about it)

i wonder how the base look like

[DiscoCougar]

I'm extremely satisfied with my XM Phoenix. Sideshow just came a little too late with a weaker sculpt, imo.

[k-9]

this could epic, if they put effort into the base then this could just push xm's version off the top spot..

Sideshow’s Dark Phoenix Premium Format™ Figure showcases Jean Grey and the Phoenix Force together at their most powerful!

woohooo

Get ready for a black museum under base... isnt that the norm now with SS.? (Really hope not)

Is there no 12 days link ?

They usually have an advent calendar style reveal page for each day.

I'll definitely be picking this up. I hope they offer a regular Phoenix variant at some point. Would not be surprised to see a 300-piece white Phoenix limited as well. That seems to be one of the ways SS is at least offering small ES specials.
