Yeah, that Semic/Sosa Magneto smokes this MAQ. I heard that Semic will also be releasing 1/4 Marvel characters soon. Unfortunately, it won't be available in the U.S. because Semic is a European company without a U.S. license. So, collectors will have to jump through some hoops to get Semic merch in the States.

In all honesty their earlier stuff were very shady! But since the likes of Black Panther Cable and other stuff like Iron Fist and Electro hell look how menacing Scorpion looks. They have improved drastically

They've really picked up their game. I agree. Collectors win.

Totally! Collectors have so much more choice. It’s XM first for me then Sideshow! with now Prime 1 Sideshow exclusives only as shipping is nuts for us international buyers

How you been the to Prime 1 retail site? I'm curious what kind of 'deals' you would get for shipping.

It would work out around the same for shipping from Japan instead of Sideshow. Then tax [emoji849]

Oh, WOW! Did not know that. That sucks.

So I'm assuming Sideshow is the way to go. The only advantage then is you might get replacement parts easier through Prime directly because I know Sideshow has a much longer process because that have to contact Prime and go from there.

That’s also true! Yeah I would go through Sideshow instead for exclusives

I'm surprised that Prime doesn't ship them X amount of replacement parts, and anything above that required a direct request from Sideshow. It just doesn't seem very efficient. You're going to have QC concerns, so I'm not understanding why you wouldn't already anticipate that by offering parts up to Sideshow.

Safer just to buy through SS and cheaper

That's why I think ultimately just pay retail with SSC. It's not worth jumping through all of the hoops on the secondary market. You have no recourse.

Just too much hassle

 

[KainSwiss]

Yeah that’s last thing you want is hassle! I only will do that with XM because the fail rate is seriously low

I can appreciate that and don't blame you. They seem to be on different playing field, TBH.

Is XM still keeping there ES at 999 these days or have they started growing them.

They have changed it slightly similar to what SS does which is a good thing as they don’t do exclusives. So they are seeing how popular the pre orders go before announcing an edition size. It’s the right way to grow your business and more collectors get a chance of owning the piece.

999 is still the upper limit on their 1/4 Marvel merch. It can be less but not more.
