Right. That’s a lot of statues.
If the development on them is fast and XM rolled them out at a steady pace like many would love to see, realistically it’d be too much for customers. Most collectors can’t afford a new statue every other month. Most are at a few per year, if that.
We talk about how it’ll take years to develop all of these statues they’re teasing, but realistically it needs to take years if they want solid sales and to avoid overwhelming customers. There’s a difference between what collectors want to see and what a company actually needs to sell to make profits.

If these 38 statues are all out within 48 months I'd be surprised. Long wait for lot of them.

This Wonderfest was like Summer Game Fest: disappointing.

I may have missed the announcement, but is this alluded to “Galvatron”?

Yes, he wrote it in the XM Life facebook group inside an TF Shockwave thread.

If they were all out within 48 months a lot of people still won’t be able to afford all of what they want.
I’m interested in Miles, Venom, Batman, War Machine, a few others, for example…anybody else with a list that long, realistically how many statues are people really buying in a 1-2 year span? Basic business, you can’t overwhelm your target market.

I agree but so many pieces were teased with digital sculpts for months in advance and so many more were teased day after day leading up to event with comic art.
Then they show so little.
I wonder if they are going to NYCC.
