Storm - white costume EXTREMELY limited exclusive

[Destroyous]

700ish for exclusive. eBay on that one cause billmelater doesn't charge interest for six months for big orders.

Sweet. I'm hoping to get one one day. Id be just as happy for a brown suit one too. and it'd be half that. hopefully soon

 

[mas5acre]

I try to stick to one piece per character. Brown Wolverine would be tempting but yellow Wolverine is what I know from a kid watching the cartoon.

 

[Destroyous]

Well it does suck paying for sold out pieces that's for sure. I can't wait for my white Storm

 

[mas5acre]

Consider sabertooth too. Especially the ex of sabertooth. Probably my favorite ex next to rouge. Wolverine looks better with his mask on than off but sabertooth's ex head with his mouth open looks way better than the regular to me. Sabertooth and wolvie form a nice diorama together.

 

[Destroyous]

Yeah I got sabretooth for $300. its great. Box was jacked up but oh well

 

[mas5acre]

Uploaded pic to last post......but yeah you have to get wolverine. Even the regular is just fine. I don't find myself using his unmasked head ever. Psylocke is the same way, not a fan of her Jim Lee head, makes me think of the female wrestler China. Worst ex head is cyclops. I hate his ex head, which is why I didn't care about owning it. Watch some youtube videos about the ex for comparison. Think about how you will display things. Don't waste the money. If you doubt you'll use the ex head, don't buy the ex.

colossus I doubt I'll use the ex, because he looks constipated to me, so I'm going for the instock regular on flexpay. Don't buy because of a low ES, rarity, value, or as an investment.

Well done, man of getting mine. I'm also on the waiting list. Finger cross!!

Good luck!

you do know that if someone cancels, there is a small chance CBG's waitlist will be converted. So better not cancel, it's too much fun to hear him complain

Maybe two will cancel

Hope you get one, espcially after seeing your collection & knowing how much you love X-Men.

Thanks!

I thought they all despatched same day?

Did they? If so, there's always those folks that change their minds either when they get it or at some point between the point of ordering and their wives finding out they just spend another $350 on a statue that makes them feel fat.

I'm just sayin'...

Didn't get one, didn't want one, seen it up for hours when P.O. was up (never liked the white costume) but I'm liking when Sideshow puts a respectable ES on something making it rare. The fact that you have some mad at not getting one is the way this hobby should. Not everyone should be able to get one, and if you do, you know your one of the lucky ones. Love when Sideshow makes something worth chasing down..."collectible".

Enjoy the hunt for all those that didn't get...

Punisher PF 350

EX. Strom PF 150

I love collecting when it's low ES like this!

Don't forget spider woman 350 and scarlet witch 350 ES for both ex!

 

[Drakul]

Sure I have (just check my posts about SS dropping the EU warehouse) but this guy seems a bit too much:

If you take something like a statue this serious that you feels "physically ill" when missing out - you got problems

Fair enough

I have found problems with box storage for my PF figs
does anyone rotate their figs for displaying?
I have a dedicated Toyroom, but I stil have some display space problems
I also use my office for displaying. should I continue to keep the boxes,and packaging. I do not plan to sell anything, but one
Never knows!
An input is appreciated.

Everyone agrees but I'll reiterate, always keep the boxes!
It's indispensable when you move, I have 1-3 statues I have lost the box for and I'm always freaking out when I have to move them.

I still hope we get some cc declines coming soon. I just want her to trade for galactus or gladiator hulk if I'm not impress enough to keep her.

A Storm for a Galactus or Planet Hulk?? Heeeeellll Nah!

The normal eyes do look better

It's honestly depressing how it seems like the vast majority of people who own this statue have either flipped it or are flipping it or already own the original black statue. Between the three I don't think any deserve to have it. If they were going to do a variant it should have been known to begin with and really you shouldn't be able to order more than one of a sculpt end of story, especially if they wanted the ES to be this limited. I swear they made this just to have a recent statue sky rocket in market value on the aftermarket so that people will get scared and want to preorder early now.

Why should people who own the black one not be able to own this? I can understand (tho I don't necessarily agree) your sentiments on flippers though.

 

[woozie0]

Great looking PF! I took some pics with Black Panther and it reminded me of how good he is too!

 

[Chapter 2099]

I like the Exclusive head better, TBH. But overall, a really good looking piece.

Why should people who own the black one not be able to own this? I can understand (tho I don't necessarily agree) your sentiments on flippers though.

I look at it in a "how can the most people enjoy this" kind of sentiment. If I was in charge, I would have these variants go up at the same time and make all statues one per customer/household plain and simple. You can keep the ES fairly low this way, it helps stop a bit of flipping (though only a little), and it's just plain better. I find it incredibly annoying when people buy two or three of a limited statue, especially the really limited statues.

I think in general people in this hobby try not to think about others the best they can so maybe I need to learn that mentality. It hasn't worked for me so far yet. These sorts of hobbies do not have to be inherently selfish.
