They would he demanding permission to enter the warehouse to personally pick out the shipper box that they think looks to be in the best shape. Imagine a OCD person trying to get permission to open all the boxes of a certain statue so they could personally examine and pick out what they think is the best version.

You have a fair point, but honestly it wouldn't be any different than if you could order it through your LCS. I just figured I'd ask them since they're local to me and it'd be nice to save on shipping if possible.

Looks awesome! Only thing I have to gripe about is the robotic looking underwear. I wish the pose was slightly different too, as he looks like he's shaking his fist at some X-Men who got away. Either way, still one of the better Apoc's out there at this scale and I'm happy to have ordered him.

I?m definitely going with the closed mouth looking down portrait. Which is unfortunate because he looks really pissed in the open mouth portrait. My only gripe, but only because of how I?ll have him displayed.

It's amazing how fast XM can get these statues out, but us plebs have to wait 14 months and counting for a replacement part.

That is what I noticed too. The body was almost the length of the torso of the person putting it together.
