You have a variety for your collectors. You switch out the first couple times but you stick with what you like but having that option is great. that's why so many people are complaining about not getting the ex thanos the regular head isn't as cool. But you put both heads in every box then you have everyone satisfied, seriously why would you not want to have different display options ? Especially at the same price your paying for it anyways. You may like a piece you had no interest in if there was a different pose

just my opinion, its a statue, not a toy , posing figure, i would prefer it that way, but if it comes with extras, thats fine, just hate how 1 piece can separate the statue so tremendously, i dont see how thanos is a failure in any way, grin head or not, the entire piece to me is great, if there are going to be switch outs, put them in all boxes, my statement is clearly stating, make them all the same, no ex or all ex, same price....even tho i got the EX on a small ES, doesnt change my feelings on this

No thanos is not a failure and I agree with you take away all the ex stuff. That's why I said sideshow should include more if they are going to increase in prices. Their two counterparts prime 1 and xm include switchouts. And they are not overpriced. Thanos is a great piece but I feel like they left a lot on the table by it including more options with the regular. You could have satisfied more people by having your 750 with both portraits and a resting arm possibly a cube. Then for your regular just included both Portraits. The options of having that switch isn't for the one collector but for the many. That's what I'm saying. Not trying to change your mind but from a stance of the hobby continuing to grow. But instead they continue to turn customers towards xm and prime 1.

Is that movie worth watching? I've seen the first one, but not the second one.

I do because I have the option.
