I knew this statue was overscaled last year. People were talking about it during STGCC 2018. How did XM not know?

The people in their secret Facebook group probably told them she was fine.

I am more then disappointed and I AM COLLECTING STATUES. NOT COINS or PLATES. So the free gift is nothing. Also we ordered a 1/4 scale statue at their website. Not a 1/ 3,5 scaled one. And its not my fault as a collector they missed that at QC. No return for an item I didnt ordered?
XM keep your coin! I will keep my $$$$

This company sure seems to have a lot of issues with their statues considering 1) The extra cost you pay for them and 2) How much smaller their ES's tend to be.

It's also completely mind boggling to me that they do not accept returns on a product that is CLEARLY not what it is advertised to be, I mean what the hell. Prime 1 is going to have a similar situation on their hands/when if that Batman Zero Year ever ships, which I'm still not convinced is going to happen. The stupid site still says it's a 1:3 scale statue. All 3 of these companies really have a knack for showing their lack of business acumen at times.

As frustrating as this can be to collectors who already own her, for me the big positive is that XM was called out and forced to acknowledge the issue so they won't make this same mistake in the future...

One can hope anyway...

I always noticed that there pieces are bigger than most, wondering if they or SS is right on what is 1/4th. Or maybe it's done so that you go all XM or all SS ? hmmm

Not all of them. I have like 10 XM statues (maybe 11 I can't remember) and for example, Storm fits in absolutely perfectly with the SS PFs like Rogue, Psylocke, Magneto, etc.

Cool, from some photos i've seen online sometimes the XM ones look way bigger, or maybe my eyes need to be checked, but wasn't magneto on throne smaller scale than 1/4th ?

That one might be smaller. IDK, I don't own him, but I've heard that statement quite a bit.

I collect all companies but there is no excuses for having improper scale. It’s amateur hour at best so in the future I hope they ( XM ) don’t mess it up . Sideshow has done a much better job with modern releases in this regard .
