I guess I need to see more pics. I prefer the anatomy on the new SS PF, as well as the Supes/Bats dio. The REG portrait on the XM piece isn’t working for me yet, either. It’s not lifeless, but seems expressionless. I haven’t seen the heat vision portrait yet.

I love this piece and I can't pass on it. I still say as far as portrait, SS beats this one out by a small margin. I also haven't seen the Superman Heat vision portrait. Right now I'm a little meh on Superman. Its not bad by any means but not drawing me in.

The SS WW IMO portrait is better as more realistic. Thats what I look for in features. But the piece is still one of the best out there.
The Tweeterhead WW although good quality and priced less but is a bit to bland.
As with the XM Superman. Its the same or very similar pose and base as other brands.

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

This very well might be my first XM piece. I love it.

Hardest part will be deciding which combination of switch outs to go with. Could see going back and forth on it.

Agreed, and I rarely ever feel that way with switch-outs as I generally have a clear favorite.

Why in God's name is Wonder Woman's A55 out but the men are covered from head to toe?

Because the vast majority of collectors are dudes?

Because no guy would buy a male statue if all he was wearing was a thong.. well maybe a few guys would..


It's such a moot issue, unless your displaying her backwards your not going to see anything and even if you did display her backwards all your seeing is like 1/4 of her butt cheek... She has been drawn this way in comics especially in the 90's, Gadot was wearing a thong when she did her foot sweep move you could see 1/2 her butt cheek... so there is precedence.

If you want to nitpick you could easily argue Tweeterhead Catwoman is a bit risque with a slit so high on her dress.
