If indeed they make her resemble Talyor Swift to tie in with Deadpool 3 then that would do it, no matter how great the body, paint, pose etc, there's no way I would be buying that.

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

That's going to be it the Swifty look, j/k. Sideshow has to leave something to be desired, so that they can circle back in a few years and drop another Dazzler PF. This seems like that has been their M.O. for years when it comes to dropping most new characters PF's.

We already got Wolverine and Colossus a few years ago.
That Bowen Dazzler is a masterpiece. Chrome ball, jewel in her necklace and that pose with both her hands! I can't imagine Sideshow had no look at the Bowen in making this PF since that Bowen is practically the only Dazzler statue I have ever seen.

I think this Sideshow piece is going to be a showstopper. Very excited for the full reveal!

Man, with a long enough holler, you got her! Day 4 with another 1/4 PF? This event is starting to look unprecedented, and may promise some more obscure, sought after gets.

Sideshow disco, with soft porn glitter? WTF, if it keeps this industry in a positive spin, i'm in.

Sideshow, keep them coming.


P.S. Very curious regarding the edition size, as I want to see if all the "noise" matches the prize?

I do too. She will be on her own shelf with my CGC 9.4 of my Uncanny X-Men # 130. Or, my CGC 9.6 of my Dazzler # 1. We'll see.

I do hope that they make her looking a little more curvy and shapely the way she has often been drawn in the comics. I feel that the live action version that we got of her in Dark Phoenix was more so for "fan service" as the actress who portrayed her looked like a teenager and was also built like one. They showed her with her blue eye make up and in a jumpsuit which led me to believe that it was for fan service. In the comics, when first introduced, I believe she must have been at least 21 or older to have been able to perform in bars and clubs. I believe that when she sported her jumpsuit was mainly when she was performing and therefore would be of a slightly older age than that of a teen.

I would be cool if this representation showcases her with her full head of overly done, 1970's Aqua-netted sprayed hair, SS Elektra-Like Hoop earrings and Tik-Tok-Instagram model shaped figure.

LOL!!!!

My take anyways. LOL!!!!!

No offense, but CGC has to be about the biggest bunch of BS ever foisted on the Collector community. I have some slabbed books, but I always prefer to just get the, you know, book I want in my collection. Some random opinion of what quality they think my copy is really is pretty meaningless.
