One of X-Men’s greatest threats and antagonist, Apocalypse is depicted here in all his powerful glory. With his powers to manipulate the molecular structures of his body, his left arm houses a big canon ready at his disposal, with switch-outs offering a mechanical pincer weapon and clenched fist. His right arm is fashioned into a chainsaw and gun, collectors are able to switch to a bare hand or his mechanical arrowed appendages lethal and ready to strike at a single thought.
Features:
- 2 Headsculpt switch-outs: 1 enraged, 1 determined
- 3 Right arm switch-outs: 1 with chainsaw and gun, 1 with mechanical arrowed appendages, 1 of his bare right hand

It's a huge piece, I'm expecting $1800ish but $2100 would be a LOT and probably price many people out
That said, he looks awesome. Need to see some more pics rather than XMs standard horrible/no light videos they produce.

"XM Studios is excited to present our next 1:4 MARVEL Premium Collectibles series statue, Apocalypse, the second release of our X-Force line! One of X-Men’s greatest threats and antagonist, Apocalypse is depicted here in all his powerful glory. With his powers to manipulate the molecular structures of his body, his left arm houses a big canon ready at his disposal, with switch-outs offering a mechanical pincer weapon and clenched fist. His right arm is fashioned into a chainsaw and gun, collectors are able to switch to a bare hand or his mechanical arrowed appendages lethal and ready to strike at a single thought. This beloved character is immortalized in amazingly detailed 1:4 scale cold-cast porcelain. Each painstakingly handcrafted statue is individually hand-painted with the high quality finish.
Left abandoned, starved to death as a baby in the harsh, unforgiving desert of ancient Egypt, ruled by Rama-Tut, a band of nomadic raiders found an infant, gray-skinned and freakish in appearance, abandoned by the settlers of Akkaba. The nomads took the child for their own, giving him the name En Sabah Nur, “The First One,” and teaching him to be "strong" in order to survive the desert as a child. This idea, that "the strong will survive," would shape Apocalypse's actions throughout time.
In this Premium Collectible the level of detail on Apocalypse Is unparalleled. The designed details and paint app on the modern yet strangely ancient armour that clad apocalypse, shows the transcending history that this ancient mutant has experienced. His grey skin, textured realistically, his metallic blue lips and red eyes, strong and expressive. The weapons are highly detailed, the base reveals elements from his temple. Which other X-Men statue collectible has a similar base I wonder? Are they perhaps in facing off each other in battle? An essential centerpiece of our X-Force Series and for all X-Men collectors, Apocalypse is THE statue collectible for all Marvel and X-Men fans!"

Very very cool. I'm glad they included normal switch out options, not big on the weapons but the clean look is really sharp IMO.
Now just need to see price, I suspect it will be egregious.

i like the sculpt and details / colors more than i thought i would, but dont like the pose, base and majority of the switch outs. a simpler museum pose would have been more menacing imo

I actually love the base and the portraits. A few of the switch outs aren't necessary, but fine adds. On the negative side, he's definitely not as large as I was expecting. I was expecting a massive beast, but he's really not that much larger than Archangel.
