Absolutely worth it.

I love his X-Men anyway, even if he makes all of them pretty, even the ones who probably shouldn’t be pretty, lol. But his Storm is everything. Imagine if a writer that likes Storm and respects her full array of powers, like Ta-Nehisi Coates (since he does great with her in Black Panther) or even Hickman if he wanted to write a solo character on their own without a team focus, teamed up with Russel Dauterman for a Storm series. Even if just 4 issues. It would be amazing. Dreams.

I found this news to be alarming, but calmed myself after seeing Peedi's post. He upgraded to a shape shifter.

Upgraded?! You can’t upgrade from an omega-level mutant goddess

Bet her had her change into Storm in bed because he missed Ororo so bad. He’s been pining after her for years.

Exactly my point. Mystique has the best power ever if you're dating her. That is until she betrays you or tries to stab you lol.

Well next week it's gonna be COD, so likely will put up for PO the PF from 12 days.

So like I was thinking maybe we will see Storm last week of Feb, or in March. I know the waiting seems like forever!

Oh hell no I will not allow Storm to be second page news

Somebody started a petition on Change.org for XM to make another Storm statue. Maybe I will start one to get Sideshow to give us the reveal sooner

Wow, just looked at the petition. It says XM created their Storm in 2017. That's the same year Sideshow revealed Magneto and Wolverine at SDCC. This just seems crazy to me.

This is like two competing companies doing Star Trek The Next Generation statues and one does all same main cast that the other does but skips over Riker in favor of Chief O'brien and Barclay and Worf's booty call.

Yep, she went up for made to order in April 2018. If I remember right her PO period was two weeks and then they cut it off. I received mine in December 2018.

What's hilarious is the people who claim "you had plenty of time to order, so suck it up and spend $3,700 on an aftermarket piece."

EDIT: Just checked. The PO period was 4/4/18-4/18/18. ES was set in July 2018.

I just don’t get why new collectors think it’s a cool concept to make more of an old statue. Ummmm....no. That’s not how collectibles are supposed to work. I sympathize, I do. There are plenty of statues I missed out on (Psylocke variant, various Bowen pieces) - but I would pay after market if I wanted it bad enough. That’s how this game works. Get lucky to be collecting at the time or decide if the after market is worth it to ya. Meanwhile, jusy cross fingers and toes another version gets made. Lord knows with both companies it has taken forever for Storm to get love.
