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

This one will definitely get a hard consideration. I like this piece and wouldn't be a bad addition. Since I didn't like the pose on the Sideshow symbiote.

That doesn't matter. This is directly competing with what is already out in the market.

It's a nice piece, but the mismatched eye color and very similar pose to the their Spidey 2099 is a bit of a turn off. It's almost an exact mirror of that pose.

I've read XMs description for this, but can someone give me their take on the base?

It doesn't seem fully realized. What is actually happening? It looks like a building has collapsed, but the webbing being taut indicates that it was webbed in exactly the condition we see. So, what's the purpose of webbing this pile of debris? It just seems so haphazardly thrown together. I feel like a much better scene could/should be depicted with these elements... e.g. grasping some webbing that's preventing a wall from collapsing, two walls being webbed together, etc.

My comment was on the price as you said "...a lot of customs are cheaper than this....".

The base is a bit simple, but love the statue overall, i would prefer a bit cheaper or have some nice extra stuff for the base, but placed a local preorder anyway.
