I really don't understand when I see how good portraits are on Magik or Emma Frost.
I don't understand either.
I really had the hope that the 1/4 version would be better than the 1/6 but XM just pulls it off even though nobody has written anything positive about the face

among her other facial features, i think its her jaw and chin that kinda makes her look more masculine.

Huge improvement IMO. Still not as good as their original 1/6 concept though.

Wait, is that a projection or an announcement?

Certain angle like this below where her chin is very thick, kinda reminds me of The New Batman/Superman Adventures artwork of male characters.

I've really wanted this version since it was previewed in 6 scale. I ordered this today after seeing the edition size. I won't chalk it up to impulse buy since this is my first XM 1/4 in 3 years. I thought on it today and decided if I could not get it later on, I would be upset. Thanks Specfiction.

I'm just not a fan of the portrait to spend that kind of money.

I really like this piece. I personally like this portrait because Helen Slater was my favorite Supergirl and this one reminds me of her.

I have the Sideshow Version 2 Ex which I love. I absolutely love short hair version, I like the pose (it has a balance of feminine/power if you use the fist switch out), I like the darker colors, and cloud base.

But I really like this XM one too. Portrait is more detailed, sculpted cape, XM never lets me down with the colors/textures, I like the details of the pod, and the crystal portrait base. I think it has more presence. Only thing I'm not a fan of is the colors for the snow effect. Looks more like a slurpee.

Really torn here. Sell the Sideshow and get this one? Or keep it?
