this makes me feel better! I'm not into this piece bcuz of the hype, I really wanted it since the time I saw the render. I just didn't pay attention to what MTO was back then but I like your confidence that I would be able to buy this soon...

Ah really? All those you didn’t get one say “I”. How on earth is anyone ev en knocking this masterpiece. Not in demand? Sales were low to begin with. Bottom line it’s best Spide rogue by XMto date period and there have been some good ones. Just because he’s not A list doesn’t mean this is not a to notch piece. No offence but most of people chiming in right now don’t even own one , I bet they wish they did. Anyways it’s amazing

If you really want this piece just join the facebook statue groups. I have seen a couple sellers selling this for pretty much close to retail price. This is Scorpion were talking about and no one is going to pay even 2k for this.

I don’t think anybdy is knocking on this piece, but it’s not worth anything north of 1k usd in my book. Especially with so many options out there.

Niche character doesn’t matter most of the time, a lot of ppl collect for aesthetic value.

I’m a Spiderman fan his collecting base is huge. One of the biggest next to Batman. So it’s not that niche . Especially when a few of XM baddies really were not that great example Kraven , kingpin so when a solid dynamic and first time ever in 1/4 master piece like this comes out , it’s going to be sought after . It already is

Well at least Scorpion is scaled correctly and only 300 made. I'd say that's something. XMs Magneto is so tiny compared along side other XM statues. And without a custom portrait on Mags it ain't got sh!t on Scorpion.

^He might be slightly small, but both portraits are amazing better than SS's for me no doubt. Both Magneto and Scorpion are 2 of XM's best, I'd say they're both top 5.

I'm commenting on Throne, the white suit is awesome but that's not the version for me.
