"We have some updates on XM's new "Version A" and "Version B" for XM Professor X and XM Cyclops as well the 2018 XM Exclusive Marvel Statue.
As many know, space and money are 2 major concerns of collecting so we're providing options to better fit the needs of collectors. Professor X
was originally designed to ship with both the classic wheel chair and the hover chair in a single box but doing so means larger shipping costs. In
addition, collectors end up paying for 2 display options however in reality they can only display 1 configuration (the other chair is kept in the box
since there is only 1 body). To address that, XM will release 2 versions of Professor X, Version A is the smaller foot print option, with the Classic
Wheel Chair (more affordable than the larger Hover Wheelchair B version).
Similarly for Cyclops, Version A features the more standard shooting forward pose (1 torso only), which we believe to be more popular configuration.
Version B will include an ADDITIONAL upper switch out torso with Cyclops shooting his optic blast towards the sky for those who also want to have
this display option. This way, Collectors who only want the standard shoot forward pose do not have to pay for the additional upper torso. Traditionally,
we would have released just the B version but providing the A Version will help collectors who just specifically want 1 set up at a lower cost.
Ultimately, it's about providing more options at different price points so you can collect what you prefer.
The 2018's XM Exclusive Marvel piece will be the smooth charmer, Gambit, following in the tradition of previous hot favorites XM exclusives like Cable
and Ghost Rider. XM Exclusives means only XM will sell these pieces at conventions and directly on our website and walk-ins. Distributors will not be
carrying these products so it will harder to acquire."
