Kind of lame.

Who knows. Maybe they weren't happy with it. All I know is that it is sounding more and more like it may not even ship until next year, which kind of frustrates me because a year is a lot of time for someone to have $300 of my money.

Sometimes there is over lap in shipping . Hulkbuster is so very soon to avoid possibly shipping that out and Dark Phoenix they stagger it. Scorpion is also due soon and others I’m sure I forgot .

The whole sculpt has been 3D printed already back in June. XM's Ben Ang posted a pic of it on his facebook.
I am guessing it might have been delivered to XM office and could have been painted already. It could be a surprise at the Singapore convention in Sept. I am waiting on XM Megatron( full sculpt is finished and was shown) and Bumblebee( sculpt is also finished, there was a special pre-order event for him around last Christmas time). Tell me about it too, I was so excited when the banner of these Transformers was shown in last year comic con ., but I am still waiting for the official / final statues.

Damn this is so disappointing. I was hoping to have her on display before Christmas, don't fancy my chances now.

Please XM at least give me Moon Knight this quarter

It’s a really long ass wait with XM I can say this , every piece I got from them is jaw dropping . These pieces mentioned above are massive time consuming and detailed sculpts . Future trophy pieces so it’s worth the wait !

I remember SS original Superman PF, I had to wait just over 2 years from Pre-order to when I finally got it.... Collectors who got in the first batch only had to wait about 18 months... but since I got stuck in the 2nd batch it was a really long wait..

That's the killer with this hobby though..I'm not getting any younger. At this rate I'll be retired before my collection is complete..if ever

So this happened this morning... (see attached)

Thanks again for the link to Spec Fiction Shop! I've never seen anything more beautiful and despite the delay I had to get her!
