Food for thought. Are you planning on getting it as a stand alone piece? Or, are you getting a line? They're both great lines and I'm sure we'll see dozens of characters in them.

However, there are some big differences, first one being the price difference. The TH pieces are all between $225-275 while the XM ones are around $450-499. So, if you're planning a line of a bunch of characters, expect to pay a lot more over the course of time if you go XM.

Another factor is whether you're more into classic or more realistic modern. The TH pieces are totally classic designs and very comic-y while the XM pieces are Rebirth inspired and more intricate.

Like Northern said, Tweeterhead is more 80's comic book like where XM is more modern & realistic looking with a lot more details to the statue and the base.. but that comes at a price as XM's cost roughly $100-$150 more per statue..

Keep in mind that XM are made to order with a 1200 Edition Size cap but if only 500 people order one then 500 becomes the Edition Size of that particular statue.... With Tweeterhead their Exclusive statue is made to order but as far as I know their regular version has no edition size....

Thank you. This should help me in deciding between these two lines

They've stated in their live videos that the EX will never be more than 250 because they wanted to keep the EX's collectible. The regulars didn't have a number on the bottom of the base, but did on the box. And they confirmed that (I believe) starting with Starfire, they will all be numbered on the bases too.

I wasn't doubting it or you.

That was intended to be a reference for comedic effect.
