It will be interesting to see what the price point will be on these, some of them are very large and intricate. They will be competing against other companies such as Tweeterhead, that has a price point for their Maquettes at around $250-$300 usd. I don't see XM being able to compete with those prices.

people in the US already pay 1K+ for their 1/4 scale (shipping, fees, base statue already 700+), I'm sure they will still draw attention
xm has a weird fanatic-type following

Given the base on this thing I'd guess $500-700 range.

If they were doing characters like Booster Gold, Vixen, Wildcat, Vigilante or Red Tornado I'd disagree with you but XM has decided to come out the gate with a top tier lineup so we'll probably be asked to pay premium prices.

I'm glad it comes with a more classic head sculpt. Still, the price will determine whether or not I get anything from this line. I know they're 1/6 scale, but they all seem to have huge bases that will make them more expensive.
