Her hair is orange too. It's awful. People may hate the SS Emma, but at least her hair is blonde, especially the EX.

But, I digress. I really want to see at least 2-3 new X-Men debuting this summer, one being a new Storm PF/maquette. I do seriously wonder if they actually intend to do all of the characters that were in the group prints. If they do, it means a new Storm, brown Wolvie, Prof. X, Iceman, Beast, Archangel, Toad, and Pyro.

People hate SS Emma because it's one of the ugliest statues released in the last few years. You can't even compare the SS to the XM, but we do have to wait until we see the XM in hand.

Like I said, maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised (doubt it) and she won't end up coming out like one of Donald Trump's relatives.

I think you need to adjust your monitor colors, I'm looking at the pictures right now and XM Emma's hair is blonde.

Nah, I'm good. You like it. I hate it. It's the same ugly color they used on the SS Ms. Marvel PF, which I also hated.



This is the sort of color scheme I want to see on an Emma statue I own.

I preordered the XM Emma, I'm just a sucker for the Hellfire Club motif! I still like my SS White Queen PF.
I still Really wish XM would improve their female portraits though!

Yea, I didn't like the XM Emma either. I don't like the body sculpt and I don't like the pose. The paint was ok ....but not great.

I liked the SSC Emma slightly more, but don't dig it enough to PO. I think the body sculpt could've been sexier.

How is that not yellow? Sounds like what you want is bleach blonde which is more white than yellow...

The Worst Emma statue ever was SS last PF of her, her legs were jacked up.... The latest PF is better, but she doesn't even look like Emma, looks like some crazy cosplayer and her base looks really cheap... I'm sure SS will give it another shot down the road...
