Smh, Always a few idiots that ruin it for everyone. SS will take a hit in sales and collectors lose out on what would’ve been an amazing statue. I’ve always thought that one day, one day these people are gonna ruin something good, just didn’t think it would be psylocke.

I just want the original portrait, i don't care how the new one looks from different angles. Without the original its a no buy for me.

Completely understandable. Having swapout portraits is pretty much an industry standard. Sideshow can’t even use the “we ran out of time” excuse this time. Sigh...my favorite collectible company.

Right! Seems a no brainer just to have both. SS is my favorite company too, but sometimes....

Guys i'm as disappointed if not more so then anyone here. But the name calling? dechirico7 you just called XM's Scarlet Witch ugly. Some collectors here like that portrait, so if XM like Sideshow decide to randomly change it because of your comments are you a moron?

And Crim you don't like Rogue's portrait, while some do. If Sideshow changes that because of your feedback are you an idiot?


I'm not looking for an argument here, you both are good members whos opinions i take on board, but if we are going to start name calling over this at least be somewhat self-aware.

For the record i made three(3) negative comments before SDCC everything after that was overwhelmingly positive.

I am going to stick with my XM Scarlet Witch comments.
Sorry, but that portrait is not pretty (avoiding "ugly") and a huge step back for the company.
I even think this new Psylocke portrait is better.
I can't see how any tweak to that SW would make it worse than it is.

And I am sticking with "morons," regarding the collectors posting bearded photos of the Psylocke portraits.

Sorry to disappoint.
