600 ex for Mystique and 800 ex for the Poison Ivy. It seems like the fans spoke up about these ones. I wonder what ultimately made people pass. Was it the price? The portrait that some people found too masculine? The pose?

To me ...its the price.

I think if these were priced lower, then collectors would've forgiven one or two issues they had with the statues.

But with the price being so high ...there's no more forgiveness. The statues need to be exactly how a collector wants it for them to buy it.

Really? Emma is the worst of the bunch IMO.

This is really true. It gets tougher and tougher to overlook things you dont like with higher price points. That is why I did not order the new wolverine. Sculpt is amazing but I hate the uniform on him.

For me, statues go through 2 phases, my initial impression upon full reveal, then my impression of it later on. Loved everything about emma’s sculpt but the base ruined it for me, overtime however while not ideal, thinking about the story of the base i’ve warmed up to it.

With mystique, loved everything about it on first impression, but the guns and skull on her head lost its appeal overtime, still like everything else about it except those two thing. Some statues however skip over these phases and hit every note on first reveal like WW.

Yeah I figured we were all intelligent enough here to realize that was my opinion, especially since I said IMO. Guess not. Next time I'll make it red in the largest font available and bold it for you.

Agreed. Out of the 5 that's the one I would never give a second thought to about purchasing.
