I thought about it as soon as I saw the beautiful SS face, but the design does not allow for it.

SS faces straight forward, so the neck attachement is probably straight. On my XM Jean, the attachment at the neck is twisted so it just won't fit. (dammit!)

I didn't say it would be easy.

Alrighty folks... a year from now.

Who has the balls to take the SS head and put it on the XM body?

I'd be surprised if that works. The XM piece seems to be a bit on the larger side in terms of scale.

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

Putting the ss head onto the xm body sounds like complete foolishness to me. Why ruin a perfectly good statue just to improve the xm piece. Plus ss body is incredible. Love those abs. If I have both statues ..I'm going to keep both intact for both resale value...and because it's the right thing to do...not that I would sell.

Ok maybe foolishness is a little over the top. To each their own. I wouldn't do it though.

Lol the debate is endless here. Both is good but bad at the same time. The perfection is a combination of both. I still hope XM can solve thier female faces issues someday and hire artist/ sculptors like the Kings of female faces like steve, Harbottle, newman and tim miller. Must give ss / or should I say the Kings sculptors working at ss credit for pulling this off and making so many other insanely great looking female faces which XM is having trouble with. Sure even ss has some female faces debates from the dc line but overall they do a awesome job. Look at the ones we saw from the female statues from the 12 days. The evil Lynn, dark phoenix, and captain marvel faces were stunning powerful and beautiful, makes those pieces to perfection. The female face is imo always the most important for the statue. Yes more so than the T&A. Wait did I just say that?

The pose is better and though XM has the big flaming Pheonix the paint scheme on the SS bird has more of a fire feel. The SS piece just looks more real to me if that makes sense. I personally wouldn't buy the XM piece even if it was the same price and available. Mags and dr strange are the only XM pieces that I was excited about when I first seen images. And now Mephisto.
Imo of course. And I done get all crazy excited about bases. Unless it's done like the mags.
Now these opinions could change with in hand pics of DP.
I haven't seen any Mephisto 1/4 statue. Maybe you meant to type something else?
