Wow didn't realize it was going up for PO this quickly. I was expecting late fall or end of the year. Going to try to make this work somehow since I really want this to pair with the Captain America SOL. Think they will look GREAT together!

They changed the arm band from Red to Black?

Some of you guys would make great detectives. Have great eye to detail. I do too...but in a different way. If a statue looks generally great to me...I look over finer details...

Borrow money from a pessimist, they don't expect it back.

They change the back flag too 
However for arm band they want to be different from the ss one that is red. For me red is better

The arm band color change doesn't make any sense to me. Maybe Marvel asked XM to ease up on the nazi symbolism. Which would be weird given what inspired this character.
As others have said the portrait needs work. I have no idea what is happening with those teeth. It's frustrating when XM are so close to nailing pieces, but don't add that final 5-10% needed to make the jump from good to great.
The lack of wetness on Namor, ice cream haired Black Cat... I hope this doesn't become a trend. With the avalanche of statues XM are planning to unleash at STGCC, it seems there isn't time in their schedule to make tweaks close to PO. (Iron fist being a recent exception).

Why would Marvel ask them to lay off the Nazism when they spent an entire story arm making it seem like Cap was a Hydra agent from his inception? Which btw is a direct slap in the face to Cap's Jewish creators. Thank goodness that story is all wrapped up, but still.
IMO, XM needs to make the arm band red. It doesn't stand out against the green anymore, and also does not match the rest of the red accessories/highlights on his hat and shoulders.

I'm on the fence on this piece. Sculpt and pose are great, but that head sculpt... Ugh!!

Yeah, the arm band doesn't stand as much. Maybe Disney wants to lessen the "Nazi" symbolism.
But that Cube looks freaking awesome. Would be cool to have the cube have the levitation technique. That would be dope.
