Exactly. But honestly if you show me something and say oh this is 2-3 years off then I’d rather just not even know. So much can happen in that time. Changed interests. Factors necessitating the original sculpt that was shown needing to be changed which seems to happen a frequently with XM (Green Goblin, Deadpool, Batman Who Laughs, etc). Then there’s the “what ever happened to that?” group (Rhino, Apocalypse). Or the worst, announced products eventually not coming out at all...Quicksilver and Wasteland Batman for example. Show me what’s coming in the next 6 months or it doesn’t exist lol.

Is there any info on how they're going to handle the ES on this 1/4 DC line? Their 1/4 Marvel line has a 999 ES cap. I wonder if it'll be the same with the DC line?

Borrow money from a pessimist, they don't expect it back.

I would get a refund if I were you...with XM holding your money for more than 3 years.. that is a NO NO for any kind of business.

Add me to the list, make a PG and will be my first XM statue!

Excited to see these, but realistically only want batman and if it really is the batman we (i've) been waiting for? Looks like He's going to be museum pose.

I know it's a long shot, but I hope GL has this pose.

I normally like action poses but if XM can nail Batman without strange anatomy, no weird headsculpt, no cape that’s really just a full on curtain, no chaps, no other strange no-basis-in-anything costume details, no hunchback, and just provide a solid, comic book costume based, normal headed Batman and they have to do a museum pose to get it done, then I’m 100% for it. They can even place him on the tried and true and tired @$$ gargoyle for the millionth time on a 1/4 Batman statue, it’d get a strong pass for a decent 1/4 Batman.

I'm dying to see Martian Manhunter. That's the 1/4 piece I'm in dire need of for my JL lineup. After that, I'll be anxiously awaiting a George Perez Deathstroke. If we get any other version but a Perez styled Deathstroke....it'll be a HARD pass for me.
