I don't see the pose as a defensive pose. More like he's winding up for an attack. The SSC pose is exceptional for Sabertooth. He's more upright and still looks dynamic.
The XM pose is more crouching and hides the musculature on his front. It's dynamic but hides more than I'd like. And the XM paint lacks depth, IMO.

I agree on EVERYTHING. This sculpt is perfect in every way, & from every angle. The pose, anatomy, movement, & presence are all brilliant, stuff I've been waiting on to be offered for years. Now that it's here, I'm fcking both stoked and horrified!
Stoked, well, because we are finally getting truly hyper detailed beautiful sculpts, which SS is consistantly capturing the essence of these characters with great portraits, great lines/movement, at relatively reasonable pricing.
Horrified, because some truly great SS offerings have been mercilessly/senselessly crucified, even after countless pics, vids, testimonials. Failing to recognize how Sideshow, of late, has really raised the bar, and should be applauded for going beyond the generic/deadhead look, as SS sculpts always seem to have a "heartbeat/soul". People should take more time to look, listen, & learn.
