They really go well together and I'll admit I wasn't sure since their bases are definitely a different color. Didn't matter though, they are a great pair. I'm extremely excited to add XM Colossus who will be shipping this month and I'm already eyeing the new Xavier piece lol.

I'll only buy one a quarter... I said.... right.. lol.

It's a hard decision, do you have any attachment to either individual character? I think if I were in your shoes, that's what it would come down to. Both look great, I feel very confident you will be really pleased with whatever one you end up ordering. I have no regrets on either, that's for sure.

I'd pick Cyclops.

There's no better options out there for Cyclops (sideshow one is not good looking at all).
As for gambit, both XM and SS nailed it.. can't go wrong with either one.

Honestly, I didn't buy either of them, and went with SS for both Cyclops and Gambit. But note I didn't think either SS or XM nailed Cyclops for my liking.

I'd say XM cyclops probably a better over all choice, and then later you can get SS Gambit. But if you want statues with Low ES, then maybe get XM Gambit and then XM Cyclops later

Sadly neither now,after paying the insane amount of 348 and 328 shipping for XM Emma Frost and Xm Scarlet Witch.. Shipping costs overseas are killer right now.

Even if Cyclops is one of my favorite characters, I would choose Gambit because the statue has a great charisma, it's dynamic, it's tall, there's something going on that doesn't happen on Cyclops.

I have both of them but I don't show them in the same spirit, Cyclops is quite small and is going to be a pair with small footprint statues like Emma, Jean, Wolverine, SS Pyslocke or even Mystique.

Gambit is going to play in the big league with White Magneto, Dark Phoenix, Colossus, Iceman, Cable. Pieces that are big either by the character, pose or base, with a strong presence.

I think you made the right choice. Those are some fine statues to look at.
