I mean, if they want to leave money on the table that's cool. We aren't talking about rushing the prototype or finished product, but they could give a tease or render. They have a silhouette on how the design and everything looks, I'm sure they have more they CAN show but are choosing not to but yes, that's speculation on my part. Knowing the new way XM are doing this, half their pieces are 3 months out and almost done production before it goes out on PO anyways...

What you're not figuring in is that XM is has easier accessibility for the non-NA market, while SS is more costly for the non-NA markets. It's just like XM being very costly for NA customers.

Also, you should know what version you want. Clean, classic suit design with a sleeker base? Or do you want textured suit with a more crazy styled base. Also, XM's will have swap-outs (portraits, swords, no swords). That is still TBD (but probably doubtful) for SS.

^ yea, I’m in no rush. Went my last 39 years without a Nightcrawler, I can wait another couple of months. The “other” nightcrawler’s demeanor looks too calm as is. Would have to see the other portrait if there even is one.

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

Well, at least they are preparing future buyers with this comment on FB from Ang Seng after poster joked "SS price $650, XM $1250":

"...well if you are looking into price then I would frankly and sincerely go for the big company products..."

Based on other products, I'm going to put him in the 1350SGD range, which is 1000USD. He could be more because of licensing because I compared him to DC's Zatanna who has lots of swap out and a crazy base.

I'm done complaining about it, instead I'm going to take Ben and Ang up on their comments and just put my money elsewhere.


Not even about the price or affordability, which for some reason they can't understand. I'll get my last pieces in and then I'm out on this company. Give my money to tweeterhead, queen, prime 1 and Sideshow instead, doesn't REALLY matter to me.

We've already seen the silhouette. It is another super busy base full of junky looking metal bits all over the place. So, unless they've made big changes, expect something similar to Psylocke's base, but worse.
