is that a scratch line or casting issue at the shoulder blade?
I know XM used to check every piece but i think it was stopped due to the number of releases.

It looks like a casting issue, but I'm not 100% sure.

It's hard to tell whether is that a shadow of the head casting onto the shoulder because of the direct lighting above, or is that a sculpt molding issue... Guess I'll find out tomorrow when I receive my Psylocke statue from XM. I have mine set on 2pm-5pm delivery time in SGT. Will post pictures here to share if any of those issues exist, or is it just a one-piece issue that Art unfortunately had with his Psylocke.
Will keep you guys updated...

Best of luck to you Austin, I don’t wish bad QC on anyone. Grumpy would have you believe that XM is perfect, and we all know that isn’t true.

Line looks weird.
Left eye looks slightly off.
XM are normally spot on.

Nope.

Thanks! Well, nothing's ever perfect and art is subjective. XM Beast wasn't perfect at all, but I still got him anyways. Even though there are still certain elements that I don't like about Beast and Psylocke, but it's not overwhelmingly alarming, at least for me.. I'm grateful enough!
But of course, if a production piece is bad... then it's bad. We'll see..

^ as you’ve stated, it’s subjective. Beast was exactly as advertised. I hope your Psylocke turns out well. As for the wonky eyes, the only portrait I can complain about is my calm Phoenix. But for a person that’s on fire, the calm portrait is not my option of display anyways.

Statue Mania from YouTube had their Beast show up with a missing fang, and others in the chat complained about paint issues.
