The amount of folds on his right arm suggests sculpted to me. It would also be hard to get wired coat tails to look like that.

Either way we’ll find out soon. So good it looks like he jumped off the comic pages!

Sculpted for sure, based on that prototype image. Been looking at the XM version for comparison, and I actually think this SSC piece is better. This is very impressive for them.

Looks cool but XM and SS are almost identical. It's like they copied each others homework.

I think Sideshow is superior. The pose looks so much more natural. The kinetic mutant effects also better. XM’s inside coat also looks weird to me (reminds me of a cobra’s hood).

The last two reveals (Colossus and Gambit) show why SS is still king when they set out to destroy the competition.

Just compare the kinetic energy...not even close in my book...

XM's Gambit would've been better if they kept both his legs on the ground ...preferably in a wide fighting stance.



I agree with darren, this just seems awkward ...or less natural.


On the other hand, this SSC Gambit looks great so far.

Congrats Gambit Fans on having a rough choice between XM and SS

This release concerns me because it clear that SS and XM are going head-to-head on XMen releases, which means that IF/WHEN Storm shows up....she will be in the dreaded Jim Lee suit. I pray that’s not the case it’s not her best look.
