Sounds like with all these complaints people should just pass on this one. I know there is completists out there. But we're talking about 300 US, then tack on another 30-150 for shipping depending where you live. Not to mention another 50 for duties (taxes and services)...

I think you are right Eli. If people are not 100% satisfied then they should save their money. I have this on order myself but only because of Sideshow's fee free cancellation policy. To tell you the truth I am really disappointed with the fact that there are no lights to match the other exclusives and a bunch of other little things. I haven't lost perspective- $300 is still a large chunk of money for a piece of polystone that sits around. I won't buy it to just complete the set. Hopefully somethings get re-worked. I hope this sells out very slowly so that Sideshow will get the hint.
 
The third one should go in the middle. Cyclops covers one side. Emma the other. Colossus is looking after Kitty since he is looking her way.

I still can't get over the boot/foot of the Sentinel just standing straight up like that. Gravity anyone? Especially with the weight of Wolverine on it. The dude weighs like 300 to 500 pounds due to the metal in his bones!:monkey4

Man if he weighs that much he def. has to be on the bottom. Poor girl would be flattened like a pancake otherwise.

If he weighs that much than how much do you think the giant metal boot weighs?:monkey3

Or, they just settle for a smaller ES, which would shad a new light on this 'soso' piece. But to be honest, I doubt that even that would help to improve the popularity of this item.

Neither can I, but for other reasons. I think the composition sux. It could have been better anyway.
 
Shouldn't the gold from Beast's outfit match the color on Kitty --- which should be the color of all their belts? If we wanted to keep them all the same tone, that is.
 
Nicely done Darth Rage. Thanks for playing around with it. That's more or less how I will display mine. A little twist on the Emma/Beast to face a little more outward (to our right) and we got something good going.
 
You can position these three dio's any way you like, but they just don't look right together. That boot standing up :confused: doesn't look right no matter where you place it, the body positioning of beast/ wolverine and emma/kitty is way too similar, and unless I'm wrong the base on dio #1 is much lighter in color than the bases on dio's #2 and #3.

Personally, I see only 2 options here; display them separately or keep dio #1 one and get rid of the other two. Let's face it dio #1 is superior in every way, shape, and form to the other dio's and it doesn't need them, it is more than fine all by itself. I certainly can't say that about the other two :monkey2
 
As much as I hate the execution of diorama #3 and consequentially because of it now #2, I love the Astonishing Xmen comic so I am completing my exclusive set.

The paint coloring can easily change to keep continuity. That's the least of my overall concerns which we have discussed to death since Wednesday since most of us share them. I need a Thor PF to make me feel better about Sideshow's Marvel line...
 
I don't think they look good side by side like that. A 360 degree display would be best with them being arranged in a triad, facing different directions.

Put them all in a straight line with #1 in the front, #3 in the middle and #2 in the back. Hopefully, Colossus is big enough to hide wolverine. Maybe all the lights from the others will shine on Wolvie so he's not all in the dark alone.
