The most impressive XMen statues was Gambit. So damn dynamic and fluid movement. Very graceful. Mystique is just flat out a bombshell of epic proportions! Dark Phoenix is arguably one of XM best ever made. Omega Red looks killer and massive. Cyclops is without a doubt the best Cyke at 1:4 I have yet to see.

Storm is far an away the best Storm ever IMO. White Magneto is fantastic. Iceman has such a cool unique pose and his semi translucent color is done exceptionally well.

For reference, looked at the pics at the New Magneto thread and could you ask XM, if they could change it back. Thanks.
XM said they changed nothing, must be the setup at the convention.

Gambit was least impressive imo.

Completely agree. I didn’t feel right when I saw it in coverage here, just didn’t have the same wow factor for me. So went back to Lucca photos and wow... so muc better. I think it was just not put together well here. Even the missle is positioned wrong, too low.

I seriously doubt XM would drop the ball on the actual peice but have to say I’m surprised they dropped the ball displaying it at this show, not like them.

I’m surprised there was no Scarlet Witch shown. I’m looking forward to seeing her fully painted

Ditto to no witchy poo. She looked AMAZING in production. That red and pink suit is/was on point!

I am so impressed with this company. I only own Sideshow in 1/4 scale. XM has come a really long way. The price still scares me though. With this latest showing, I may take the plunge on a piece or two. However, what is the best way to preorder/purchase from the US?

The guy in the foreground does look like Iceman, but as a whole, could it be Dr Strange with Dormammu or something behind him?

Yay, all in.

Hopefully they can do some more of the next tier characters for this scale.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Somehow I am still torn about their Gambit. I already ordered Cyclops Option 2 without hesitation, but for the Cajun one. I feel there is something lacking, I can't pinpoint what it is.
