Any interest in the SSC version? I think that one 'wins' between the two.
Good luck in the search.

So I like XM statues but not really feeling this one, what are good places to buy these statues? I really dont want to buy from ebay they are so over priced, any advice?
Yeah I still have my order in on her and am excited. I was always more of a Captain Marvel/space adventure type so I'm definitely into this design. Also, she is gonna come out cheaper than other XM pieces.
CBG - I believe MSRP in US was around $475-500 + s/h. It really depends on what the exchange rate was at the time as the US dollar has been outpacing the SGD.
I also have one on order, and I'm pretty excited for her. I like both portraits, but I think I like the short hair best. The only minor thing about the statue I don't like is the facial expression is lacking any kind of emotion, but its not enough to keep me from buying her.
Wow really a XM PO was really 500.00? So the new XM PO seems way higher. This was my most wanted one I didn't try to order because I thought it was like 700 to start. So does this mean all the new coming XM statues start at 500.00 for PO? Where to buy in usa retaliers?
I had to pay $925 + whatever shipping will be (expecting around $150 with weight/size), but I didn't secure mine until about 2 months after release. So, I got a pretty horrible deal, but it was better than not getting it.
No US retailers and overseas distributors are not allowed to sell in the US. You have find your own secondary place to purchase like Ebay, Buy/Sell/Trade forums, etc... At this point, if you really want it, I would wait until its released or close to shipping from XM. At that time, a lot people will start flipping and hopefully price each other down. BUT, I wouldn't expect to get her any cheaper than $850 + s/h at this point. I know a lot people claim you are trolling/flaming in a lot of posts, but this question is legitimately asked by people who are new to buying XM. So, I figured I'd give an answer that might help others as well.
This one was so cheap because the base is small compared to ones like Black Bolt, etc.. Additionally, it only has switch out portraits. So, no extra arms, hands, etc.... This is bottom of the pricing structure for XM and other statues will likely be above this price. Basically, this is one of the cheapest XM statues if not the cheapest, and I would expect most offerings to be $500-$800 USD price range (retail price without markups). Obviously, the more complex a statue is, the sheer size of the piece, popularity of the character, etc... all drive the price. The price I quoted was the retail conversion if you were to buy it at retail. Unfortunately for all of us, we get stuck with middlemen mark up + the shipping is a a lot.
So, while Ms Marvel was $500 USD at retail, those of us that got her will ultimately pay around $700-900 with shipping and middleman mark up (even higher if you getting it from a flipper). Me personally, I had to pay $925 + whatever shipping will be (expecting around $150 with weight/size), but I didn't secure mine until about 2 months after release. So, I got a pretty horrible deal, but it was better than not getting it. I was lucky with all my other XM statues to get great deals. So, I figure I can take the pain on huge middleman markup on this one piece.
Well better than buying this ss rare ms marvel 1 only as he mention for 5000.00
MS Marvel Premium Format Exclusive Statue Sideshow Marvel 640 Avengers CAPTAIN1 | eBay
NO Way any Statue can be priced (or Sold) for USD$5,000
Well at Least for myself as I definitely cannot afford it
Well he now has 50% off sale! Updated. Nothing against the seller because he can sell it at whatever he wants. Just kind of fun to see if someone did buy it for 5000.00. . I'm sure the guy with the 3 lambos here can buy it because to him it will be like 50.00 = 5000.00 to us all.
I might have just scored a ms marvel with coin !
