I think depends, if you order direct from XM, FedEx isn't going to cheap, it's not like XM have been shipping a lot of statues oversea to get a volume discount. Now if XM ship the statues by sea to some US retailers, then it would be cheaper for sure.

Global license and limited to 1000. This will be a hot ticket.

I don't think they are limiting all licenses to 1000. I thought it was just the Marvel license.

Sure Bryan posted somewhere about it / asking for input.

Could well be wrong.

That looks a lot more like Turner's style than Sejic's. Sejic has more full body hyper detailed armour.

The 999 cap was/is a Marvel 1/4th line only thing. This may be under a thousand as well, but nothing is guaranteed under 1k other than Marvel 1/4th.

Well, isn't Marvel like the only license they had up until Topcow?

They also have a 1/6th Marvel line. And bryan specifically said that the promise was for the 1/4th Marvel and that they would evaluate all future lines/licenses separately as they came.

So we've just got to wait for his official word. Either way I am getting my hands on this!

@Sharkey

Michael Turner's design is not smooth and sleek as presented. Turner's work is more jagged with an alienesque aesthetics with remnants of H.R. Giger style. Also the Witchblade gauntlet is a bit over-sized.

mmm, true, just flipped through some of the early issues. Well in any case this is a very early render, so we'll see how it goes.

Hell if they did 2 body sculpts one with Turner armour and one with Sejic armour I'd still buy them both in a heart beat! But yea I'd prefer that they go to one of the artists styles fully.

Can't wait to see more of this piece, really interested in how they will pose her and what the base will be.

My only concern is the anatomy of this statue. I always liked how Micheal Turner drew her anatomically. It may not have been anatomically correct for some, but it always looked great. I just hope that XM can capture Turner's aesthetics ...and make Sara firm, fit and attractive.

Right now the thighs and butt doesn't capture Turner's aesthetics...
