Storm Premium Format Figure

If this is another tornado base, I will definitely be passing. Not going to own another huge blob of white and gray.

Look at Atomic Misfits. It’s the second part of their story. They didn’t take it down like Sideshow did. It was up there 30 mins ago and I found it by accident.

Edit: As of 2:39 EST, Storm isn’t posted on their stories either.

Both are fine since comic artists change on this all the time. I will dig both! I just hope she’s a nice brown skin, not too dark or light. This ain’t biracial Halle Berry or Alexandra Shipp. Most statues get that much right. Right now I’m just a little thrown off by how light they made Miles Morales in the video game and subsequently the PCS statue when he’s always been a brown boy.

Sideshow and XM both gave her very nice skin tones, I hope they do her justice again because clearly they didn’t give her many curves. And I don’t mind a “model” Storm, I just prefer her to look different in form than Jean and Rogue. In a live action film, she can be model-esque too. I’m cool with it.

Best of both worlds! If she is on a tall rock, it’s totally the animated series opening. I’m calling that now.

Looks to me like her arms and legs are all extended, in a "Here comes the lightning" type of pose. Looking forward, not cocked legs, backswept arms, or turned head. Don't think it will look too much like Jean except for the waist from this angle.

Her portrait is looking downwards. Otherwise the big blob must be a cloud over her head (instead of hairdue), which i doubt.
Prob base is giving expression to her powers. I think piece of tornado.
Bcs they can't do lightning, other than horrible plastic strings.

She is summoning lightning all right:

The legs are extended with a large gap in the lightened picture, though. I think she's flying atop a cloud/tornado rather than standing in the animated pose.

My original Jean comments were based on how I figured SS would approach a new Storm. XM’s Storm is dynamic with that large tornado base, similar in scope to XM Phoenix with her powerful pose and raptor base. When SS did their DP/Phoenix Variant later, instead of trying to match the grandness of XM’s they made a scaled back, relatively simpler but very well sculpted statue and it worked. I just figured the same approach would be done with Storm, not trying to match the grandness of the XM by making a maquette and doing whatever maquettes may entail, but instead scale back a bit and go with a PF, more in line with how they did Dark Phoenix and Jean Grey with their version of flying rather than how they did Rogue or Magneto.

Anybody who will have both SS Storm and Jean (that will be me!) will hopefully have a great looking display. I’m excited to display them back to back!

Yeah, it does look like she’s standing in a tornado. That’s what I was saying before, could be another tornado which actually does put it closer to XM’s.

Tornado would be weak AF. Hope you didn’t do it Sideshow. It would also be dumb AF to cut off a third of her body by her standing IN a tornado. She is 5’11”. I wanna see those legs.
