[XM Studios] Phoenix

[Silverine]

Nah had her in cart 3 times during simply toys and nothing. I mostly collect females (did until I got supes) so no wolverine or mags. Was looking forward to Phoenix.

With XM i already made the choice only females but wolverine mags and omg QuickSilver just look at them i dont think i can pass QuickSilver and my money its all gone if i am not carefull xD

yea, Wolverine was a must have for me. I need a Wolverine in my collections and I'm not a fan of the SSC PF. The XM one was too good to pass up. Same with Cable...just a great rendition of him and he's never been done in 1/4 scale so i'm psyched to get him!!!

oh man, you gave up? i keep plugging away and actually got one way after the POs were gone...

Well I did, but whenever I asked, it kind of got overlooked. Don't matter, I doubt I'd of had the funds for it at the time.

Hahah I know the feeling. I only did females, because I felt males all looked the same, and women tend to have more variety. So that was that, but I have decided to pick some pretty sweet male PFs too!

More than Kier?

Yeah I think so. I think it's also the rush that I got when I acquired Phoenix. Like Kier isn't going anywhere so maybe that's why? Also amped for the Balrog from WETA to be honest, it should be coming soon.

**** man tell me about it, I almost had the one with coin but not ta after. I could've easily gotten the one without but didn't. I was happy cause my guy held it for me with coin

Might try and get Cable if i change my mind after lol

Yeah bro I remember that, but you got lucky, I wouldn't recommend that to any one with these pieces lol

Oh yea, I totally agree. I'm not waiting around on any other pieces that are must haves. I was a tad on the fence with Phoenix...asked about her about 2 weeks before PO and the waitlists were all full so I had to take my chances with PO day. I was trying to convince myself that I didn't really need her but the pics were so amazing and she's just so integral to the Xmen lineup for me. Pretty much why I'm getting Wolverine and Cable....I NEED A BIGGER HOUSE!!!

 

[bicoid18]

That happened to me with Wolverine. I was pretty adamant in playing the wait and see approach with XM. But I caved the day of his PO. Next thing I know, I have Phoenix on PO as well. .

Jedi, have you considered dropping some of your Hot Toy preorders? I can see Robocop and Optimus still being available later on at a cheaper price via Spook, etc. That's like Cable right there. Marty and the Delorean I'd keep at all costs though.

The delorean with marty was mighty tempting but I made a vow to not buy hot toys ever again so i gotta stick to my guns!

 

[bicoid18]

Yeah, I think I'm slowly transitioning out of Hot Toys. It's such a slippery slope though. You think you're going to pick up just one, and then the next thing you know you are trying to complete the entire line. If you are a MCU or Star Wars fan, you are pretty much screwed for the foreseeable future. .

Except if you are an X-men movie fan. That said, if they ever release a DOFP Fassneto, then they'll get me hook, line, and sinker again.

Yeah man, you can't take any chances with XM stuff cause they go faster than hot cakes. I had to get Phoenix because she just looks so beautiful.

I want to buy another house sooner rather than later lol

Damn you Bicoid, lol.

The RoboCop is the PCS 1/4 (I'll be getting the HT one but thought I'd wait).
The Marty and OP are the exclusives too. The Delorean I won't be getting charged for and I'd lose my NRD.

Yes. HT sure knows how to lure us back in again

 

[nemenforcer]

I tried HT but couldn't get into it. It was hard to display HT and statues together. The styles are so different they really clash

Yea, I tried hot toys at one point early one with Mark VI and War Machine. They were really nice but I hated those dumb crotch stands so I posed them decently without the stands for my display. My mother in law accidentally bumped into the detolf and knocked them over and that was it for me Plus, the the maquettes were just so much larger with way more presence...I just couldn't live with a smaller dinkier version anymore Sold both ASAP, picked up both maquettes at the same time and I haven't looked back

I'd like it more if she was sprinkling angel dust all over the place.

Phoenix has been so quiet. Have we seen the second head sculpt?
