Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

She’s been up for preorder again for some time. Jean Grey as well, which I just got. I thought they were additional runs, but my Jean was 375 of 2000, dated 2019. It was a preorder though, and not more found stock it seems. Either way, it’s great that they’re available again.

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

Looking for a little help from those out there that may own this piece. From the picture below she sits in a custom 26.5"H x 20"W x 20"D acrylic case. My question is that Sideshow has her measuring in at 22.2" in height, but as you can see she's much shorter than that. The space between her and the top is about 6-7" easy. Effectively making her 3-4" shorter than advertised. I guess I'm asking, is this her normal production size of her? She's definitely nowhere close to 22.2" as stated on Sideshow's website. This not a complaint but just a search of if this is the norm in the porduction run.

Thanks...

The mirror works well, as do the lights and unit. What lights and unit(s) are those?
Congrats on picking up Rogue! ..probably the best 1/4 Rogue ever likely to exist.

Thanks, everthing that you see is custom from the case to the lighting. I've engineered, fabricated, built and wired the whole set of acrylic cabinets where I display my collection. With the exception of my pedestal w/ dust cover that you can see in the reflection of Gladiator Hulk where Rogue is being displayed. That credit goes to Pedestal Source which I have a few of their pedestal in my collection as well.

So, with that being said, unfortunately, I don't have a name for any of the stuff other than the raw suppliers that I purchased my materials.

Good work. I can't imagine perspex being fun to work with, cutting it, polishing the edges, gluing it together.

Almost all dimensions on company sites tend to be wrong. This is why I usually try to wait for a YouTuber to measure... they tend to give more accurate dimensions.

Very nice display btw!

I totally agree, just this one is so egregious. I expect the site to be a little off, but to be off 3" or 4" on the height is something else totally...

She's nothing close to 22.2" more like 18.2" in height. That's why I was thinking is just mine or was this all of them.
