XM Archangel

The one thing I don't really like is the Doc Oc looking tentacles on the base. Other than that, it's awesome. Surely they will do a portrait with the head covering.

That tentacle is an odd choice.

Tentacle... Psylocke also has hers... so are these two pieces connected?

Yeah that's definitely a little odd, I assume it'll fit in with the theme they are going for once we see it but I could do without that as well.

Otherwise I think this is a home run.

Definitely expecting a covered head switch out and of course his standard colors. Really looking forward to this, rogue, beast and others coming soon!

I suppose they could be Sentinel tentacles similar to how the SS Gambit has a bit of tentacle on his base.

I really want Nightcrawler!

this looks very promising so far

I'm definitely IN for this. Day 1 PO!

It might be a while...

I don't disagree BUT XM has tried to do a better job recently of getting their product in the production cycle more quickly (especially on high profile items like Thanos/Death and Batman Shogu/Joker). So maybe this will be here sooner than we think...

To me it looks like he’s at the beginning of taking flight. If displayed with other X-Men just imagine they’re aiming for the Sentinel’s legs while Archangel is going for the chest or head.

Only problem is the tentacle on Psylocke’s base looks completely different from this tentacle.

I think both tentacles are pointless and need to be removed. But the one here at least looks better.

Doubt it will have angel wings, that would be an angel statue itself, this is archangel. Unless they plan to recycle the pose and offer version A Angel, and version B Archangel.

I kinda thought the same thing, it looks a little awkward and maybe it's just the angle of the render. I want to see the proto with the hooded portrait to make a decision. I wish he was more posed to throwing his metal feathers. So when they do apocalypse it can look like he's throwing them at him.


My guess we will see Archangel, beast, rogue, Psylocke at there January event they talked about having. No date released yet, guess maybe in late December it will be announced.
