I'm definitely not going to get into comic grading, but yeah, sometimes I just want some comics displayed nicely, and don't want a giant border with text on it. I love these, albeit a bit pricey: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...HQU1L0OU&psc=1

Have you ever imagined a world with no hypothetical situations?

Crazy times but I do feel that it is not a "sellers" market when it comes to collectibles at the moment.

When I sell mine I fully intend to take a loss and I'm fine with that. As long as they go to a fellow collector that will enjoy them I'm fine selling a 600 USD statue for 400 USD. May be silly, but at some point it's about celebrating the hobby with others instead of focusing on profits.

I absolutely love this cover to X-Factor #9 by David Nakayama, so I wouldn't be mad at Sideshow if she looks similar.

Agreed. If the portrait resemble Ms. Swift, I will pass.

What statues are you looking for @onewiththeforce?
I have to purge about 50 statues in 2024. I may have one you are looking for.

If I like the new Mystique enough to order, I'll sell you my EX Mystique with the X-23 arm.

LOL.
If I like the new Mystique and her footprint is small enough, I will probably go with the new one. LOL!!.
we'll see. LOL!! thank you though, let's stay connected for sure.
Yea, the pros for me on the last Mystique are the small footprint, the paint and the switch out arm to show her abilities.
The cons for me have always been the short hair so I am crossing my fingers on the new one. ugh!!! hoping!!!!!
And I have always felt that the last Mystique was overpriced for what it was.
