Sorry for my stupid comment...

I give XM 1 only chance with this statue.
Why? I'm not rich enough for buy statues like candy. My choices are very selective. I'm not satisfied with the quality/price and YOU you say it's ridiculous i cancelled my others orders from this company??? I do what i want with my money.

Also I've seen a few QC problems with Prime 1 statues also, few Arkham Batman statues I saw had some sloppy paint in a few areas when this statue first came out... Even a couple of my Ninja Turtles had a few minor issues... Like I said no company is perfect... If you want perfection this is the wrong hobby to be in. But I do agree if a statue has obvious QC issues then get a refund...
Yes it's a good point for you. On the moment i was stupid to accept this piece.
But on the other side if i can paint GK, i can do some paint adjustment and today i have others projects with this statue.

It seems they are more starstruck these days producing movie star likenesses than they are caring about fans wants . Not stupid at all.

Let’s get serious these are hand painted sculptures and there will be flaws here and there it’s not a Rolex factory ok.

Go McGregor!!!!!
You're right, if it was a Rolex Factory, statues would be perfect.



I did a little review of this Ivy but it's on a french forum and pictures are locked if you're not registred.

If someone is interresting i can try to translat this with the pictures and all.

If you’re not happy contact XM or your seller for a replacement I guarantee they will fix this situation . I apologize for any harsh words I just feel like members here gave you best solutions we could . I don’t think you should give up on a company for some flaws.

The point being for a company that name is based on QC and charges a premium price for it I'm disappointed. If I'm paying a premium price i expect that premium quality. I'm not apologizing for my honest opinion and view because that what forums are for. But i noticed that everybody in this thread that pointed out an issue or dislike with there statue they were apologizing for having to point it out. And its interesting how your first go to was to make excuses for the issues instead of saying damn i hate to hear that and telling me how to get it fixed. For those that gave advice thanks and yes I did get my statue from a reputable seller that is already working to fix my problems.


For those XM zealots it is what it is and I expect that no matter what you will defend them just like the SS zealots and prime 1 zealots.

My Ivy 2.0.

I change some things on the base, painted vegetal flaws on the body, rework the ombrela for a display with geisha head , minor flaws on the heads and others little things i forgot...

It's not a ultimate masterpiece but today i'm happy to display her.

@Xoras Good photo's!
It makes a change to see statues outside.

I've only ever taken a statue outside once to photograph, and that was The Walking Dead - Michonne
