Part of me can't help but wonder if there's a sick twisted artistic choice at work with the 2 portraits on this piece. The regular version with a stern grumpy dissaproving look to mimic the collectors who at having spent 1200 on it wishes it was the Ex version. And the evil sadistic smile of the Ex mirroring the collectors face knowing that there are only 749 others with the same expression when they look at there statues. Cowinsedence or evil design lol!

To me, the regular "angry" face would look amazing with the gauntlet arm that is NOT being included in the statue (original photo where it was just resting on the throne arm). Stern face, stern grip.

Then of course, the smiling EX face looks much better with the "come and get me" gauntlet that is actually on the statue.

My only concern with this piece is that it's so far out from delivery, and if the collectors Es sales aren't where Ssc wants them at. That they as a company would take in all the orders they can for the collectors edition and do somthing slimy. Such as release a limited artist proof edition with the two portrates and a switch out arm holding a cosmic cube mabey a slightly different paint scheme as well and Add another 250 to the price tag and screw everyone over! Highly unlikely true, but integrity is just a word that seldom comes between a company and its prophets

They have never done that.

They have sold APs for the charity auction on eBay but it never had something that was not available for sale in the production version. Well, except a paint color I think.

That last sentence...don't start fanning the fire.
