That arm (the only attachment) looks pretty thin. Very worrisome.

She’s by far my favorite of the X ladies but I don’t think I’m ready to throw down for the maq rate.

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

By gods that jacket hurts this piece so badly. Still my fave piece of the show, but can't stop thinking how great it would look sculpted. Even the belt, it's goddamn atrocious!

I really agree it's a shame it wasn't sculpted. Would have been the piece of the century!

Yep. Gorgeous, amazingly sculpted piece with some cheap faux leather. Such a shame.

BTW, I think this portrait looks like Candace Cameron.

Wouldn’t chicken arms be wings?

Hate the pleather jacket, but the sculpt is gorgeous.

Yeah, I'm so confused. So, far not one person has stated "oh I love the pleather jacket or belt," so I'm not sure why they keep doing fabric when it's totally unnecessary.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Good call on Candace Cameron. And the jacket not being sculpted really sucks. They could have further justified their price point by having it fully sculpted too. I wonder why they didn’t. At any rate, I think mixed media can be done well for capes and large jackets like with the Gambit PF, but when it’s not necessary like for this piece a smaller jacket detracts from it. Also, pleather has a bad habit of cracking over time. I still want this piece but they missed it on the jacket.

Maybe for this piece it brought the weight down which was need for the integrity of the piece? Yeah I don't know...
