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

Where did you end up ordering it from? It seems like Spec Fiction is the cheapest. Never ordered from them before, but whoever I order it from (if I can get myself to pull the trigger) would end up being my first time ordering from them with this one...

With respect to those that ordered, I’m blown away by the fact this piece sold out. The price is waaaayyyy over the top to me. Normally even the most ridiculously priced pieces that sell out leave me feeling like I made a big mistake not getting it, not this one. I’m just left astounded it sold out at all. If it is flippers buying up then I think they might get a nasty surprise trying to make $’s on this after that fact.

About 40-50% overpriced to me but still, to all you lucky pre-orderers out there it’s an incredibly epic piece price aside.

Gratz to everyone who got this amazing piece!!

They both look teriffic, even if i'd give the Dream-Version a slight advantage in terms "seriousness",
fitting the narrative slightly better IMO.

The colored version looks a tad too "playful" for my taste, but still, both versions are an absolutely
gorgeous und uniqe take on Batman and his ingenious pool of nemeses.

Since, i am more of a Supes guy, i gave this one a pass (though it was a tough decision)
and will wait for the XM Superman dio.

I would have LOVED to get both, but for that amount of coin, i really have to set priorities!

EDIT: I was just wondering - is there a reason why the colored version of Mr.Freeze has his
glass dome on, and on the monochrome version he has not?? (at least on the XM Shop pics)

I've had the color on PO since September, have no regrets. HMO Zero and his Black variant sold out in less then 24 hours plus look at SS Thanos. You just never know.

Not surprised at all on sell out because XM gives us unique products. This was a special diorama from the start and Batman collectors wanted this. Personally had too many other things on the go but this will stand out in a private collection .

Congrats

ES on the smoke version is only 108, so I’m not terribly surprised by the sellout.

I thought they said the opposite about the "smoke" version. They intentionally left it off of the smoke version since they didn't feel it worked with that design.

BBTS has the colored version for sale, but I just can't do it. My pockets are not that deep.
