Where did you get $3500 from? Obviously, steer clear of people selling for that. That is ludicrous. I can still get this for the MSRP or something close to it.

Payed 200SGD more for it, but still going to be less compared to what XM EU asks. I've got 0 intention of buying from them as long as the difference remains that high.

Any for those saying it can't be done, F4f has universal prices so yeah...

We were referring to the original Magneto throne statue. But, if you can get me that for close to retail, please let me know.

Yeah same here. Paid a premium to preorder this so-called "Exclusive".

I was going to say earlier that for sure $3500 is awfully high for a single statue. On the other hand it was possible, years ago, to get the original Magneto for less, and even a lot less if you had connections and were aggressive. But in general the XM pricing and "after" market is just strange because of the very limited availability, and the way orders are "placed" before a given statue is even up for preorder.

Huge Jean fan...HUGE and I am having a hard time justifying the price.
But most of you make more money than me.

XM still can´t do good faces. So I don´t like it, as this is
one of the most important parts for me.
Anyway body and base are good; as usual on XM ,too.

BTW there is a 1/4 XM - Mrs. Marvel statue available at ebay for around 300EUR/350USD (!)
from a normal /serious seller at ebay europe / germany.
It hasn´t sold 3 times (who paid 800 for it, lol?)..
Perhaps the seller (not me, don´t know him) will reduce it even more if someone is interested.

I couldn't disagree more. Dark Phoenix, Samurai Batgirl and Poison Ivy, and Lady Sif are all great portraits.
