It was when Marvel was fighting with FOX to try to get the rights back to the X-Men, Marvel decided more or less to not let companies make X-Men merchandise in order to try to hurt X-Men brand in an attempt to get FOX to sell back the rights to the X-Men. I think it only lasted maybe a year... But I do remember XM had to put a hold on all their X-Men statues during that time. Although SS still produced a few X-Men statues but I'm guessing they already had approval before Marvel put a clamp on the X-Men stuff.

I wonder if their plan is to hurt the Nightcrawler brand now.

Borrow money from a pessimist, they don't expect it back.

Is this being released at all or should we all move on?

I think its time to move on, i'm sure the alliance line got scrapped so they can work on 1/4th X-men stuff instead. Or else we would have been teased with it at some of the previous con's. Unless they surprise us at Singapore comic con this year, probably won't happen.

I highly doubt it was scrapped. I know folks who paid in full, years ago. Have faith, dude.

This was the only known factory pic of X-Men VS Sentinel they shared many months ago during Dec 2019.. (see image attached)
Just yesterday, XM has mentioned in a FB poll that they received over 100+ factory pics of all the different statues in production. They should be sharing some of it soon... But some pics still need pending approval before they can post it.
