I have to pay an absorbent amount of shipping if I want a statue from XM. I?m not going to complaint about it because I wanted the statue.

This is a hobby and having something rarer (exclusive) are more enticing for me to spend my hard earned money. If I want a limited statue, I?m more inclined to buy it. I want my statues to retain as much value as possible given how much they cost. XM argument IMHO doesn?t hold water because there statues are so limited compared to SSC.
Hmm... not all XM statues hold the price after release despite the lower ES imo. At least not in my area.

True! not all XM statue holds the value... For instance, XM Cable was considered the perfect statue until SS Cable was released. Now, Some of it even sells for below retail. Moreover, XM is started recycling their characters, and I expect 50% off from its current market values. This Spidey, eventually people will dump it for < $400. 90% of SS statues is no point to get at retail price anymore

True. One went for $750 a few weeks ago. And one is listed for $995 right now on Facebook seller has dropped it all the way from $1200.
Actually majority of xm statues have dropped initial value.
I just bought a dr strange for $600

finally a new character and he looks great.

Hope Jubilee is next. Also would be interested in Havok (in his 90s look) and Angel.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Not a bad price at all for this piece. Now I just wonder what the ES is going to look like and if there will be an EX for this PF.

I had it added to RSVP, and so, it shows up on my wish list.

When I went to check my wish list just now, I noticed under Nightcrawler it shows the price as $595 USD. Unfortunately "view item" brings a 404 but tells me this will probably be up soon, maybe even this week.

If he is $595 I would be shocked if there are swap-outs of any kind. Storm is more than that and has nothing.

Maybe we will all be stunned and there will be an EX for $630 or something.
