you still didn't answer my question. but it sounds like you don't want the EX, so that's fine. But if other's want the unmasked head so be it, not sure why you're all worked up about it.

The XM Wolverines base is giant. It means bigger box and super heavy piece. It will cost big bucks once flipper middle men get them like everyone else. Did I mention they messed up yellow big time and know there is interest in getting a more perfect version. You're paying for this folks!

I didn't know that a persons Forum Membership date directly corresponded with the date they started collecting.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

XM Wolverine is 7,5 Kg and the box isn't big at all. So it's only 2 Kg more than the SS Wolverine

Hi everyone. I'm posting here for the second time as it could look like I'm a new member, it's not completely true as I was coming to this forum since a couple of years before I decided to register myself (mostly in order to see the pictures).
What I want to say it's not because some people are not "active" on those forums that it means they are not collectors.
I start collecting in 2009-10. As I live in Europe, for a couple of years I was buying through European stores only. And now since 2 years and half I start ordering through Sideshow. The reason is that those European stores have raised their prices and blow the roof with them. Today it's still less expensive for me to buy overseas even with the shipping cost and the customs fees than ordering in Europe. And the best part of it is that I get the Exclusive and have the statue few monts before it comes through European retailers.
Example for my last statue Geral of Rivia EX (Prime 1).
Sideshow's price: 770$ + 133$ for the shipping + 72$ for the customs = 975$/830€
In Europe the price for this statue starts at 1175$/1000€ and it's only the reg. So I saved 200$/170€
Even for reg statues, I did the same for Bane and saved 80€ going with Sideshow.
And don't forget the rewards points, I used 132$ on this Wolverine. With the FlexPay option this statue is a steal !
As a collector I don't get the ES thing. I means if you love the statue and want it in your collection then just buy it.
Why do you want to wait ? If it's under 1000 ES you jump on it, if it's over 2500 ES you pass ? Or maybe you just like to play with fire and jump only on waiting list to see it convert. I still don't get it.
Anyway congrats to all who buy it. Now we're going to wait at least one year before it goes on our shelves.

I know I like the Wolverine, and it is the best yellow Wolverine, that's enough.
As for the ES, who cares?

As far as I know, Wolverine and Bane are made in the same factory
