I'm guessing an edition size of 75.

I agree that some collectors will love this. I just don't think there will be broad appeal.

I love this design from the comics. But IMO the helmet is supposed to be the star of this design. XM is being XM and adding a a ton of unnecessary stripes and lines and textures to his suit

I’m a fan of Professor X so I’ve been looking forward to this but XM, just like the comic writers have often done to villainize him, is doing too much with him.

Hopefully they just paint the body suit black and the textures would be fine that way. But knowing them it’ll be shades of gray and whatever extra color added in.

Helmet is bit over designed as well. It’s like they look at comics and immediately go “how can we change it”.



But kudos to XM for their 3rd Professor X when Sideshoe hasn’t done even one.

It?s a good looking statue but I never liked this costume.



Until they tweaked it for HoX. Minor tweaks at that but I like it so much more. Definitely the classic helmet and collar. I wish the statue was this version but HoX wasn’t out yet.

I?m excited they are doing new designs. I can hope they will do a Storm. And if they do not to overdo the design.

You mean per usual they are over designing something thinking it looks good?

Think they would have learned from the lackluster responses to Sinister and Jean.

Nah, they're kind of like Disney. They never learn, despite many fails.
