Exactly.

And I was hoping XM was going to change her lower half.

Gonna wait for the SS reveal. The initial tease has a very cool pose vs this one. Great to have options.

Definitely waiting to see Sideshows as well and then I will determine which one I’m getting because while I do like the face sculpt the pose does leave a bit to be desired.

I think a bunch of us wanted XM to take another crack at the lower half of this statue, but for some reason they didn’t. And I think it will be a detriment to the sale of this statue given the very powerful pose SS has sneaked.

One is clearly the Mystique we know, the other is a girl trying to be the Mystique we know.

Even if SS doesn’t hit a home-run (and it’s only pretty good), the price disparity will still make me lean towards the domestic order. I only have room for 1 mystique unfortunately and she’s not a character for which I’d pay A Weapon X price.

I like what I see on both so far. SS pose is better imo The XM portrait and colors are awesome.

I'm thinking covering her money maker was more of a design choice than a mouse hammer. Elektra is basically in the same pose and outfit and she more reveling. Small gripe.

The good news for us is that there will be plenty of Mystique's out there.

I was all about this piece until I saw the preview for the SS. That pose looks just killer to me.

I'll definitely need to be going over both once we see the full reveals and picking my favorite. Another factor to consider is the fact that the XM will likely be $200-300 more expensive.
