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

Really? How so? He is one of my favourite characters and I think XMs portrayal is pretty spot on. The only criticism I have of it is that it really only displays well up high on a shelf looking down (which is fitting for the character in my opinion).

ITA with ComicJesus. I'm also curious to know why you hate the XM design. I think the pose, change-outs, design, and colors look amazing! How would you like your Moon Knight?

The XM Moon Knight looks awesome and a good representation of the character in my opinion. Only weakness is some visible seams that people are complaining about but that's subjective.

I think it's a good statue, I just hate crouched poses. To me it hides a lot of the detail of the character/sculpt. Just my preference though.

XM released a video on how to fix seam issues for moon knight. Very simple to do and those that have done it have stated that it worked perfectly as they described.

Me too. I try to stay away from crouching statues as much as I can.

I think it is great that XM is trying to address this for collectors but I cringe when watching this process or even to consider doing this to a piece. But apparently it works.

But does this leave your piece smelling like rice? Perhaps add some Jasmin and gun oil to provide some ambiance smell-o-vision for your piece.

They also clearly explain why it’s okay to do this and why it works AND why it has seams in the first place.

I guess everyone can just continue being dramatic and complain instead though. Or watch some more weekly live shows answer the important questions such as “favorite pizza topping”

LOL does anyone find it ironic that Brian is wearing US flag shirt and this piece did not have a worldwide license.
