SS Mystique - $570 (USD)

SS comes with 1 arm switch out, where XM's comes with 2 portraits and 6 arm switch outs. The base is also bigger on XM's... (EDIT: I forgot she also comes with the knife switch outs.. so you get 6 arms)

Now depending on where you live shipping can add a lot... $200-$300 shipping to get the XM to North America, if you live in the licensed areas then can probably just pick it up at a local store for free... SS shipping can be $20-$50 locally to $80-$120 overseas...

I don't think the official pre-order has started on XM's yet.

I've decided to get the XM version. I'm a casual buyer at this point with prices. I get 1 or 2 a year, I would rather spend $400 more and get one that's more limited and that I like better. When these were teased I was almost a lock for Mystique and Psylocke. Now its zero chance on Mystique and a 50% chance on a reg Psylocke.

When the whole line was teased i remember being so hyped but now after the dust has settled i'm just bummed about the whole thing. X 23 met/exeeded my expectation atleast.

that’s exactly how I feel. I was so excited and wanted all of them. Now with the art direction and drama I dropped all of them except maybe x-23. Watch some kind of last minute change get to it down the road. Wouldn’t be surprised if it happens at this point. I will wait to see production pics on x-23. Can’t afford another first red Sonja drama again.

Lol I'm hoping they make a few changes to rogue, or it looks abit better to me on production side. I mean p1 are doing statue revisions long after statues have been up for order maybe SS will surprise us.

Aha, great info to know, thank you.

I'm in North America. Does SSC distribute XM? They distribute so much, I took it for granted that they played ball with all of the major studios.

Nope, SSC and XM are kind of arch nemesis

If you don't have a Singapore contact, you can order from either of these two North American stores..

While I am sure that SS is aware of the NA companies, it may not serve them well to advertise the ease of obtaining XM pieces through them in the SS section.

Sideshow won't change a thing. We know them by now. If it happens it won't be anything worth looking at. The last several changes to magneto, supergirl, psylocke is nothing significant. it was almost like no changes. I give up on the entire line except for x-23. Way too frustrating at this point. If tons of collectors do this they will feel the pain. The art direction ruins it for me and I see others say the same. Really wanted to force myself to like the rogue, and psylocke. But I give up on trying to force myself to like not at these prices. It's the next evolution in collecting. We all must be more picky.
