Statue XM Star Wars 1/4 Statues

[Fastball Special]

If they make a Jedi Knight Luke I'm all in. He's my most wanted piece since I can't get the SS at a decent price.

The SS one's don't really sell for crazy high amounts. If you live in the west it will likely cost more to get XM's.

Depends on the price difference really, I'd be willing to pay a bit more if the XM is amazing. Let's be honest, the PF is a nice statue but it's also 6 years old and therefore comes with all the "qualities" of and old PF. It's nothing we can't top nowadays. And pose looks like Frodo and Sam sneaking around.

I feel like a lot of old PF's look really weird next to the newer ones. The gap in the quality of the tailoring/details and sculpt is quite obvious. Sideshow's issue really isn't the quality of their prototypes nowadays, it's more about QC. That's why people often think old = better, because QC was much better, but really in terms of sheer detail and accuracy, most current statues are far superior (there are exceptions ofc).

We'll see what the XM line looks like though, as I mentioned before, I'm really not a big fan of their comic book stuff.

yeah I don't like the post at all either, though I think the rest of it is pretty good

I havent found the Jedi Luke for under 500 anywhere. I missed out on 4 the past month due to my work and our lovely govnt computers not allowing Ebay access.

I always imagined this was Luke sneaking around while Vader was looking for him in the second Death Star. Regardless I have been hunting this one for months and there are *******s on Evilbay stock piling them.

XM's isn't going to be under 500 probably ;p but yeah there are some under 500 on the ebay completed listings, not EX's.

Yeah I'm pretty sure that's what it's supposed to be. But even if it was done in the movie it still makes for a weird looking statue.

It's what they posted to give fans a heads up of when they're revealed at stgcc. Also the star wars line is made to order.

Grievous is 1500SGD

Can only imagine how that statue is going to be like

Looking forward to those pics. These need to look good in-hand at those prices.

 

[user 6734]

I saw a picture of the set and was not impressed.. Vader helmet looked off from what I saw...

 

[marker2037]

Those prices are absurd for a bunch of those.

It boggles my mind that they have not released official art of any kind for these pieces. Other than sneaked mock ups that a lucky few were able to see last year, there has been nothing. No wide release mock ups, WIPs, nothing! But when it comes to letting the prices be known there was no problem. I will most likely not be getting anything from this line, mainly due to cost and the hoops one would need to jump through to get anything, but I'd still love to see them at the very least. I'm sure we can blame Disney, but Marvel hasn't seemed to make them be so secretive with their pieces. Strange.

keep in mind those prices are in SGD. Not saying it's cheap, but not as bad as US $.

That's true, but after converting it to US$ and adding in shipping costs, as well as mark ups... it's not a pretty picture cost wise. Plus you have to do a lot of hush hush dealings to get something from XM, no?

 

[knightline]

Grievous may be the only one worth picking up. Does anyone think the Boba Fett looks comic like or cartoonish. I dunno just my opinion. Interesting to see how Vader and Maul turn out.

 

[Centurion]

I'm still interested in seeing what they come up with, but I'm slowly losing interest because of those prices.
