Singapor? The average xm statue is 990 sgd....some more some less

990sgd = 720 usd

Average sideshow statue now is what? $550? Maybeva little less, but im
Guessing venom will be around that.

So thats a grand total of $170 difference.

As far as doing you a "favor" i guess i woukd suggest ordering it from Xm if you are in a region they sell to. Obviously it may be a little mor difficult to aquire if you live far away from them.....JUST like it is for people who do not live close to sideshow.

If SS wasn't so damn intent on redoing Hulk, Batman, Spiderman, and Iron Man, AND IF THEY HAD THE CAHONES TO TACKLE 2nd and 3rd tier characters, maybe you and others would have had a Beta Ray Bill already!

SS has been around for what? 10 - 15 years already?

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

So let's keep things grounded. If you prefer pictures of XM concept art please pay $600 more and roll the dice. I personally don't think XM pieces merit the hassle and markup over SS where I get peace of mind and great quality regardless.

This Venom looks amazing,and I would buy the SS Venom and Carnage combined before buying the XM standalone venom as they'll probably run around the same cost. Perhaps that should be more what people are comparing...
Excellent post! You make some great points.👍

Majority of the people defending it would be people who paid an arm and a leg for it lol.
just gonna point out something

EVERYONE that's seen my Venom Comiquette thinks its frickin amazing.

Anyone that thinks its over-rated is an idiot.

Its the ONLY piece I had a hard time coming by

FACT I will have paid less for it than this one

FACT there will be far less of that one than this one

FACT if it went up for preorders today you'd grab your man-purse and buy it over any other piece on the website.

I didn't pay an arm and a leg for it, but keep things in perspective... this will have an ES of a couple thousand and cost at least double what the other one sold for (the only people that bring up price and insult older pieces are scalpers).

I'm in the US dude. Here that $170 difference isn't a reality. For us to get an XM piece is a pain and we have to pay a premium for it.
