I love the concept, though I'm not sure I love the execution... Yet! I'm going to need the full time to decide.

I've waited so long for this and here we are again now I'm stuck.

That's awesome. I'm happy for you and all who pulled the trigger. I hope I end up happy with whatever I decide. I'm sure you'll love it. I hope the first one is still for sale, when the third one goes up, so we have a definitive look on what display will finally look like

Hopefully they space out the releases. I’m going to need some recovery time between arrival dates.

I'm guessing its suppose to be cartoonish per the animated series.

I love how the sentinel looks, and beast, the rest look meh, and rogue expression is horrible but that's just my thought.

Thought about getting just the sentinel, to go with my other x-men PFs.

Yup, that’s my thinking as well.

And I’m thinking it was probably the right decision as well, as there are a lot of us who have fond memories of the 90s cartoon series.

I really wish I could get this, but in the past year or two I’ve geared my collection more towards movie based pieces, with the thinking that I’ll box up my comic based pieces (except for my Arkham and other P1 pieces) as needed. I’m already at full capacity, with dozens of preorders still come to come in, so I can’t exactly reverse course.... or can I?

And ordered...

This will be a grail for sure. And the payment plans make it a no brainer.

Now to find some space for them Sentinels...

You can buy these as separate pieces? Didn't know that.

Sorry if this was asked before, will there be more characters added (that have not already been shown)?

Cool dio, but not liking chubby Wolverine.

Thanks.

I believe you will be able to buy characters separately, the sentinel is being sold separate, and characters will be added as its a 3 piece diorama, this is just the first part.

They should have replaced Cyclops with Colossus and had him throwing Wolverine through the Sentinel.

And people always inflate prices on limited and wanted products. It’s just supply and demand. And it use to occur for statues all the time. Just not so much with the larger scales anymore.
In some part, yes, you're right, but I know what I'm saying, yes, money is important everywhere and all companies are increasing prices, but here the thing is out of your world, the market from collectables is becoming insane, pieces selling for 2, 3 times the original price is a common thing, above this Iron Studios have a total monopoly on the market, because only they can import and they don't have and don't accept any concorrence... so if there's people buying, no concorrence, in one of the most protectionist countries in the World, with insane taxes, why not increasing the prices even more?

Now, in the rest of the World, it's not possible blow all the limits like this, because we have competition and a healthy market.

Apart from that, I think 170$ is just too much for that piece, regardless the company.

They will make an individual Colossus too, like Professor X
