Getting closer to reveal. I've never been as excited for a release as this. Think this will be my "off into the sunset" purchase and relax awhile. When you get time and if you don't mind, could you give a quick description of what the difference between the other versions minus the mentioned aura entailed? I'd appreciate it.

The early bird had an extra portrait and the aura in his hand, the regular still comes with three different portraits while the early bird has 4 portraits plus an extra arm.

You've got 'early bird' there twice, but I think you're saying:

Regular - 3 portraits
Early bird - 4 portraits + aura hand effect
Exclusive - 4 portraits + aura hand effect + aura shield + extra arm

?

The only thing i am not sure on is the extra arm for the exclusive. It was so fast but everything else looks right. There will be 3 masked portraits and one unmasked

Mr. Shoosh · 03-02-2021, 02:06 PM

^ Thanks to both of you

Could you tell if they altered the aura sphere to be raised or enlarged compared to the prototype? I.e. so it looks like his head would be inside the sphere if it were to close?

EDIT: Also, looking back at the proto pics, looks like he had switch-outs for both arms. Still might... or they dropped one.

fsdre · 03-02-2021, 05:22 PM

Yes he still has a switch out for the other arm as well

XM coming with all of these versions and exclusives now. I remember when they were all about NOT being that way.

This isn't really XM though. As I understand it, they're more of a partner for production, and distributor.

Similar to what PCS is to Sideshow. PCS is independent, but has distributing agreement with Sideshow.

Are XM doing this with their standard releases? I don't follow them that closely, unless I see a character announcement that interests me, and that hasn't happened since Iceman.
