Just because you don't agree with the so-called "catchphrases" doesn't make them juvenile. Just check the definition of juvenile again.

And the only person who gets insulted here in this section of the fora is me. You are confused.

I still don't understand why people gets so protective of all the wrong doings of a corporation. The only way it would make sense is if you have a financial interest in them. At this point, the term fanboy can't even apply, it's way worse than that.

Does that explain why I think a lot of Sideshow employees use this fora for a corporate or just personal agenda?

I mean just do the exercise and read all of Divo's posts. They are that obvious.

Wow this was unexpected. I wouldn't have pulled the trigger, but yeah, I feel bad for people that settled for the ugly one and dropped 600+ dollars. I'd be seriously pissed.

When Spook started and my friend said they should do a X force variant of this piece I jokingly said yes and with the original portrait. Ha! So great!

I know, I have never felt attacked by any of your posts.

Thank you for that, it's become a rarity here!

And White Storm isn’t crazy on the aftermarket. Not surprising given how unwell her face sculpt was initially received. But a lot of it during any sneak release is the immediate hype and bad feeling of missing out. One may or may not care as time goes on. I felt I missed out on green Phoenix, especially since she’s a top 10 character for me, but now I don’t even care and I still love Jean as a character.

Indeed, the real surprise is 2 low ES Variants this year. We all figured there’d be one, but 2 in one year was definitely unexpected.

It's not the problem of doing variants, a lot of companies do them, but this, this is despicable.

Just when you think Greedshow can't do worse than what they are already doing, boom they always find ways to surprise the community!

Hopefully we get a new Storm shown this year!

That Green Phoenix is a favorite of mine.

It's funny how changing the color turned a very boring and underwhelming statue, Dark Phoenix, into a must have for me!

I even prefer it to XM's green phoenix (which i ended up not purchasing thanks to SS' version), and I am called a XM fanboy every day here!

Would be great for a 12 Days reveal. And I already have 3 Storm 1/4s. Will gladly add a 4th.

I know the definition of juvenile: childish/immature.

I wasn't trying to get you riled up or to derail this thread though.
