Also, after the infamous stance on female clothing, Psylocke is now back in the classic ninja costume, Emma in the current comics sometimes doesn’t even wear a top, and Cable’s mom is back to showing the bottom of her breasts so Disney/Marvel has fully backtracked on female clothing after that stint of trying to cover everybody up. They flip flop as they see fit. I don’t know how they pick and choose these pointless battles. We’re adults. Most of us can handle realistic guns and women who know they have sexy bodies.

Man I'm in total agreement, obviously.

I'd also add we're paying adult collectible prices, not kids toys prices, so we should be treated as adults. Some people pay as much as a mortgage payment for one statue that Disney wants to keep kid friendly.

And here's more examples of the sci fi loophole I guess. Forge has a better action pose than 90% of the Punisher statues out there, wtf.

These were the last XM statues to have guns being pointed from Marvel. I think XM isn't allowed to make this pose anymore. Its either guns up or down now.

These are collectible items. I don't understand why Disney gotta keep it kid-friendly or family-friendly. Hello? The ones collecting are adults, not kids. If they want to ban realistic guns on figurines, they should do it on the Marvel Kids' toys, not on statues. It doesn't make sense.
