Yeah thats what I'm thinking RM! I mean wolvie has great switch outs too but i think Thanos looks so much more menacing and the base with him looks amazing and fits him so well that the entire package just screams BUY ME NOW! I mean wolvie has an amazing overall package too just feel i am getting more for my buck going in direction of Thanos, thanks everyone!!

Hahaha trust me Titan i wish i could have both but right now i really have to limit my pieces and I've even cancelled most of my collectibles at Sideshow except for my Red Sonja and Wonder WOman and Hellboy…. And even after canceling many other collectibles i can only get two at the moment and I'm getting MAGNETO & THANOS and i think those are two amazing XM pieces to start off with this company if i do say so myself..
Thanks Titan!!

It'll eventually surpass, be more in demand, and be worth more than both Sideshow versions combined. XM's quality assurance alone will make this happen. All that detail, metal claws, three head sculpts, and a giant Sentinal head to perch it on? It can't and won't be beat. At least not by Sideshow. XM's Wolverine is even better than SS's 1/2 scale Wolverine. Sorry SS fanboys.
However, in the case against XM's own Thanos 1/4? I'd go with Thanos. Just not enough of them out there at that scale. Besides a lame custom, there's only one out there that can really compete with XM's and that's obviously SS's version. And honestly, it can't touch this one. Again, for the money collectors are paying for the Sideshow version, you're better off spending the extra money to get this one, because again, it'll eventually surpass, be more in demand, and it'll be worth more than the SS Thanos. With the unmatched quality control, all that size, detail, switch out parts, and three head sculpts standing on a giant base of skulls? Good God SSJ, what are you waiting for?
I love collecting villains...mainly because they make more of an impact than heroes do to me, and I love that. Just like heroes, you never ever forget 'em. This is one villain you can't miss out on...especially this version of him. Even compared to XM's own Wolverine, he'll be more in demand and will be worth more. Get Thanos.

Right on…and i feel the same way we like our heroes but WE LOVE our villains and like you said you don't forget your villains… Thanks, ill get Thanos and agree this wolverine kills Sideshows LSF and thats sad because that was what over $2,000 plus shipping?
Don't be sorry to the Sideshow fanboys or girls, thats your opinion and i agree with it…. I love sideshow but some of xm's pieces have as much if not more than Sideshows collectibles that cost over $2,000 and sorry but that shouldn't be happening but it is and thats the reality at this point… Anyway moving on, THANOS YOU ARE MINE! MUHHAHAHHAAHA

Good luck. Sarah. Glad to have have you on board this wild XM ride with us.

Thanks for advise Viper as always and again thanks for turning me on to this new company, if you wouldnt of pmed me months back i probably would of missed out on this company until after lots of the first few dozen collectibles were sold out…. And thanks for the advise on this tough question and i think I'm going towards what most people think and thats to hold off on Wolverine and get this Thanos as there really hasn't been too many Thanos on the market of most companies and can't wait to have this masterpiece in our collection this Thanos and Magneto will be my first of those two characters and what great representations of both characters if you ask me!!
Thank you everyone for your help!
MY FINAL CHOICE IS …….. THANOS!!!! THANOS YOU WILL BE MINE!! MUHAHAHAHA!!!
Sarah
