People are free to have and share whatever opinion they want. If you don't like it, too bad.
This is the Sideshow section. You can go and join the other 12 people that frequent the XM threads if you have such an issue reading certain comments.

Exactly, there's some weird statue company fanboism lol! I was hoping to see some in hand pics of XM's Sabretooth before deciding, I slightly prefer that one but SS's is great too.

Ok, this isn't where i was going with this, more just interesting on if both will sell out as fast, and which one will over all have the more sought after piece (bigger ebay mark up)

Agree, and we are lucky to have both around to have them push one another to be better.

There is and I never understood that mentality or why some posters seem to blindly back one company over another.
It's really strange to me. If it's a nice piece and I like it, I buy it. I don't care who made it.

 Exactly! I just buy what really appeals to me, I don't care which company, per se. I've been getting more into XM Lately, but I like a lot of the Sideshow X-universe pieces as well.

IN MY OPINION*
I never thought XM could execute a good sculpted portrait to save their lives (Daniel Bel was giving that company hope, but then Sideshow went in like Vince McMahon & stole their top talent) I won't deny they do some really crazy & cool designs but with a hamburger helper looking face "really kills the piece" perfect example is that Magneto on the throne. Anywho I wonder if Prime-1 will ever get that long rumored X-Men 1/4 scale license...that would be very interesting!

Subby got lost on the way to the XM section again...
This is a nice piece, I just have little interest in the character.

You know what because Sideshows Psylocke has just a stunning grill right ?
Both have hits and misses is what I’m saying . Bashing one company completely for anyone is wrong . I guess you buy what you like .
My recent sideshow buys:
Thor
Wolverine
Miles morales
Mr freeze PO
XM
Hulk
Doc Ock
Vulture
Electro
All of them are awesome
