The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

My opinion of course and at least collectors have lots of choices to choose from.

You forgot the Xm's female one leg-up pose that almost look the same.. storm, mystique, black widow... now scarlet witch.

Seeing that Rogue was made as a maquette, I guess I shouldn't be surprised that Gambit would turn out this way.
It would make sense for both lovers to get the same treatment and a mid-air pose.
The two would definitely pair up nicely and since the waitlist is already full for the Rogue EX, Gambit should help sell the Rogue Collector's Ed really well.

Both companies have hits, both have misses. And that's OK.

Sure it's allowed, just like I can keep my opinion that you are on drugs if you think all of SS stuff is better than XM. 
Just never understood the dogmatic slavish adherence to some soulless company - competition and choice is a good thing, and you are free to buy from both (or neither). But to say 1 or the other sucks is just weird.

Damn that looks good. They absolutely nailed it with the portrait, the card effect, the action pose, the sculpted jacket. The only thing that worries me is the Maquette label.
Man it's so pretty but this is getting expensive. First Sabes, then Cable and now Gambit. If you show off a new Cyclops my heart might give way.

If we go by past few years trend, considering Rogue a year ago was priced at $715 for a maquette. This will probably go for $780 or so.

Borrow money from a pessimist, they don't expect it back.

The XM pose is awful. It looks like Ken doing a Shoryuken.
