well pretty much the same thing WB. its porcelain powder mixed with resin rather than marble powder. |
According to the Marvel handbook (the grail of Marvel info...this is what I go by) Captain America is 6'5". So I am right going by the Marvel Handbook. Cap is a big boy is only 1" shorter than Thor. Thor is listed as 6'6" 640lbs. Cap is listed as......well I'll be goshdamned...that son of a bish is indeed listed as 6'2" 240lbs. ON that website you have it has him listed as 220lbs. Could it be they adjusted his dimensions over the years like Marvel always seems to do (a la Hulk). I feel like an idiot.
Why the hell was I thinking he was bigger???? WTF????

I don't know what XM said, but if that is true then I would find the increase in ES for this statue a little alarming as well. You begin to bend your own rules and it can set a precedent.

Hey guys, I've also posted a comment on http://www.statueforum.com/showthrea...=145797&page=6 regarding ES. For the record, we have never claimed that we would only do 500 ES for all our statues. I guess this is a general assumption based on the first 4 statues and you know how things like these happen - it becomes a rumor and a rumor becomes the truth etc. 1 thing for sure though, we will never go beyond 999. Our promise to our collectors is to maintain low ES, high quality, designed by cool peeps, factor in inputs from communities - all to keep your investments proud and rare! I apologize on behalf of XM Studios if we gave the wrong impression we will stick to 500 ES for every statue. I hope this clarifies!

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

no need for apologies Brian. Like you said you guys never claimed 500 was the ES limit, it's just assumptions being made.
All people need to do is read the ask XM thread, everything's in there on the matter.
