IMO, this Colossus should be displayed by itself. The pose of the sculpt reflects the characters's stoic nature and causes the viewer to focus just on him. I know that he is always on a team but I like the X-Men because of him (mostly) and would want to see him have his own display space to shine in.

Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

The fact is, that every statue was more or less designed for a frontal display. Juggs, Wolverine, and Sabretooth all look great from their side profiles, but head-on(?), they’re the bomb. If we can get to match them and form a dio? Just gravy on a chocolate cake. But yeah, this Colossus can stand alone.

He’s also cool from all angles. He’d be great on a turntable.

I always wondered this myself. If he is in China, could be a retailer that got in a shipment early? Or maybe someone who works at the distribution factory?

SS Website says "Due May-Aug", so if they're on the earlier side of the delivery schedule then it's not surprising that retailers in China have received their shipment as of April.

I just hope that means U.S. collectors will receive their’s in May rather than August.
