- Part 2 of 2 -

- XM Studios Cable with Hope 1/4 Scale Statue -

"The X-Men universe has given fans iconic and memorable partnerships, friendships, and dynamics between our mutant heroes. Some tragic, some unlikely, some precious, and some heart-wrenching. Cable and Hope, a protector/guardian/father-daughter relationship well known among X-Men fans, comes to mind."

Digging the new XM Cable! Great piece. Probably the best Cable yet. In person, it just works. No significant defects, great paint apps, and no breaks. The only issue was the pistol on his hip didn't quite go in all the way. But, it's barely noticeable.

I love the bearded look, but both of the other portraits impressed me in person (especially the hair, which is beautiful on both of the non-bearded switchouts). Hope has eyes that look great--no cross-eyed looks here.

Anyway, I have both XM Cables, and it looks like he has been working out. I do like this one more than the OG, but the OG just has sentimental value to me. Posted some pictures! Enjoy!

Your pictures are the best pictures I have seen of Hope so far. She looks a lot better in your pictures.

I can share pictures of them in proximity to one another, but not right next to each other. I don't want to have to move either right now.

My basement (where Cable is located) is a bit of a mess at the moment, I'm embarrassed to say, but here is a picture of things in their current state.

Thanks!

I've seen pictures of her looking a bit cross eyed or too much like a porcelain doll. However, mine doesn't have any issues with the eyes (they look great from every angle) and she seems less doll-like in person.

Her skin has texture, it just doesn't pick up well on the camera. Next to Cable, she does look less detailed, but I think it's meant to accentuate the difference in age. I find her expression to be great (and the hair was done very well).

My biggest surprise was how much I liked both of the other portraits. Even the stoic portrait looks great in person (especially the hair). But I had to go with the beard.
