Unfortunately I hope you know sadly this isn't the case.

The SS piece is $580. I'm pretty sure the koto cyclops hasn't been priced out yet, but the new koto Wolverine is currently $400. The Cyclops is prolly going to be really similar to that.

So Sideshow is $180 more, for 3 swap out faces. Just saying. You're entitled to your opinion, but I don't think its worth $400 is all. If this was $200, then sure I would agree.

If they are going to sell these statue s in these poses at least give us the vision of what they look like together. Like Iron studios did. Some poses look bad if you have no idea what's intended.

I just have to go with my gut on this one. I liked this piece from the moment I saw it so if it's priced similarly to Wolverine I can live with that. Just because Kotobukiya suggests that price doesn't mean it's what you'll actually end up paying for it.

IS had the Endgame diorama basically complete when they first displayed it. Same with the X-Men dio. I agree if these are part of a bigger collection atleast show off the basic designs.

But sadly at this stage they are probably still deciding which characters they can do and working on designs.

They said Cyclops, Gambit & Magneto I think after Wolvie, so that would mean atleast those are done. After that who knows.

Ok, that's true. I was thinking this was $300 and the other was $600. I do like the portrait better on the Koto one but I agree that this is overpriced if it's over $300.

It's a shame. The sculpt is amazing. The pose is just mind boggling though.

The sideshow premium format figure is out of this world insane. its gorgeous, you cant even compare the two.

Kotobukiya also has been making some terrible teeth on these figures.. Cyclops thank heavens looks a lot better than Wolverines!
