Given his height I'm looking to have the SS Thanos on Throne centre with the Galactus Maquette and this BRB on either side as they will both be quite a bit taller than Thanos. I think will look pretty damn awesome.
I'd stick thanos by himself, nobody overshadows the man.

See I think that will make him the centre piece!

But of course I'll have to wait and see. Experimenting with display options is half the fun

Could work :P. I plan on sitting thanos on an electric turntable to ensure that piece in it's entirety can be seen.

That might happen one day, I'm facing some limitations though so I think I'll just have him on a shelf with a mirror behind him. I heard those turntables get quite expensive...

Well I found a site that makes old wine barrel lids into turntables for a decent price, bout $150 I believe. Just need a mechanism to turn it so I dont have to manually to show it off.

I like it but I'm thinking this may be one where you can find it cheaper a few months after it starts shipping.

I dunno, don't smaller edition sizes usually fetch higher prices? That and bill is fairly well known, upping his popularity.

There's always a chance, but I think it's way less likely for me. Statues in general, let alone XM statues are pretty hard to come by in Canada. I've only ever seen I think twice an XM selling for less than retail.

I'm thinking a rule is if you really want it order it if it's not a must have for you then try and grab it later that way if it spikes in price you won't be that mad you missed it but if you really wanted it and the price spikes way up you'll be kicking yourself in the arse that's what's happening to me and xm venom right now ordered all xm spidey villains from overseas missed him figured I'd wait it's only one I missed now can't get one without paying an arm and leg I thought the fan base would be decided being its three venoms and one custom out at the same time
