About to sell your Storm?! Say it aint so! I have Storm front and center just waiting for WW to stand next to her.
The two powerhouse women of DC and Marvel representin in my geek room. I can't wait!! 
Though I may be biased as Storm is my be-all-end-all fave. AND the statue is flawless with wonderful exclusives. I wish I loved that pony tail look, but I hated in the cartoon. LOVED the cartoon. Hated her bad hairstyle.

Yeah I am hoping for code to use on Emma too.

Whew, you had me worried for a sec. Just checked my order and code worked and order discounted. I guess SS removed it for Jean or they will send me an email to say sorry s mistake and remove it.

I think Jean will be like Scarlet Witch, where in hand pics were better.

I put down a deposit for the ex pretty much on day 1, but I'm leaning hard towards letting this one go. I'd only be buying it to complete a set and not because I like it for its own merit.

Yeah, I would say axe it! Stick with statues that you really like and want. This hobby is expensive enough just buying the statues you like.

What OC said, axe it. Far to expensive to buy just for completion's sake.

I cancelled. I don't think this one will be too hard to find later.

SSC or someone will make another Jean Grey eventually. Igo was even checking out interest for an SSC phoenix not long ago. If you don't like a statue, it is better to be patient for another (i.e. better) one to spring up if you must be a completionist.
I myself was lucky to snag a pre-order with the XM Phoenix. There was no way I was buying this from SSC.

I'm pretty damn sure that is a waste of his time as it's a no brainer and she should have been made years ago.
Why doesn't he ask about a Magneto, Brown Wolverine and/or Juggernaut next. 
(No offense meant to you, Igo. I know you're just doing your job)

Well if they do ever release a Phoenix, hopefully they go more classic with it. I would like one without the black turtle neck, way too high Phoenix symbol, not such an ugly Phoenix base (looks like a canary on fire), and a better paint job. Maybe some gloss, not just flat matte paint. I might be forced just to do customs to get the Phoenix pieces I want. I just received the most beautiful Phoenix piece to date. I just have to take pictures of it.
