XM 2 things to make this Wolverine the baddest wolverine statue ever! I love weapon X..everything about it just screams Wolverine and the animal that he is.

First Please change the Helmet to gunmetal instead of green....including those things hanging on his waist.

Second Add blue highlights to his hair. Not over the top blue but just enough (Jim lee)

-I think the water effect is fine..really kool..but don't want it to be sloppy. Less is more imo.

I'm super pumped to get this!

I'm curious if they can make it metal looking like cables arm if it's a different color than the gunmetal colored based.

I can answer this one as I discussed this issue with Seng while in Singapore. XM does not want to produce this piece if the ''wet look'' will peel or discolor or frankly, will eventually look less appealing over time. That would just disappoint everyone involved. Right now, if I understood correctly, XM is trying to find the right balance between the wet and dry areas (i.e, how many wet areas versus how many dry areas). Also, they're presently playing with this procedure (i.e., a heating procedure of sorts) which would give them a good idea how this piece would look in the future. I was quite taken aback at how much time and effort is put into the development of a statues so that they can pass the test of time.

They're on this. I wouldn't worry. They ask the same questions we would.

Yea, for me I just want this to be the best depiction of Weapon X for a statue and basically it is, it just needs that simple touch of something traditionally seen throughout everything comicbook related to Weapon X and that's a metal looking helmet. I hope for the best because with XM I feel they listen to our input since we look out for the best interest for the collectors.

I just made a poll in hopes XM will see it and change it to the traditional metal colors many of us are after if enough people vote.

Check out the XM BST section on Facebook. I just sent out a message and had a few contacts in Singapore get a hold of me.

Then you can shop around and see who can get you the best price.

One of my contacts through the forum sold his last one so I tried to see if anybody could match his price and I got lucky.
