I have the XM wheelchair version and I dig it. I really like his shoes and socks lol. I wasn?t too fond of their hover chair version. But if sideshow made one I like I?d buy it.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Cool

I am hoping SS does a Prof. X too in yellow/gold hover chair. I like the XM one but did not want to spend close to 1000 dollars on it because tbh it is kind of boring.

Yeah, Blob strikes me as problematic for SS...a physically large character that would warrant a huge price tag but not the popularity/cool factor to sell a lot. I'm curious though, what is Blob's size in comparison to Juggernaut? Just trying to get a handle on what his price point might be.

I would say any character that is "fat" would be a problem because of the culture. Any parallel between a "fat" character and them being evil is going to cause the usual outcry. Who would want to deal with that?

No offense to you, but that’s a load of crap.

Maybe...Iron Studios released a Blob at 1/10 scale, but they're a Brazilian company, and I have no idea what political correctness looks like there, hopefully not as overblown as it can be here.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

I have this one as well and I do like it but he is so big. Details are nice and I chose this one over the hover chair because you can display him without Cerebro on his head and he has Magnetos helmet.

Yeah, that was a really tough decision for me to buy the wheelchair version, but I don't know if SS will ever make Prof X. If they do make him, I will sell the XM one in a heartbeat, just like I did XM Storm.
