We should organize a support group for November 1st.....for the poor souls that miss out on one.
[XM Studios] Phoenix
- Thread starter thepurist
- Start date
Help Support Collector Freaks Forum:
Pretty sure just like Magneto...it won't help.
Unfortunately this will be HIGHLY sought after and unfortunately there simply won't be enough for everyone to get one. On the flip side that: this is originally what made collecting so fun...the thrill of victory and occasional agony of defeat in missing out. The best to everyone on getting one of these.
Looks like a decent statue of a Marvel chick. I guess I'm just not seeing what makes this such an orgasmic experience. She doesn't seem any different than SSC's Ms. Marvel, Spider-Woman, etc. She certainly isn't on the same level as the COTD ladies.

Simply Toys just sent an email that they are going to start accepting early POs for all XM statues for elite members for anyone who has at least 5 statues on order with them already. I wonder how much that will deplete their scheduled PO day stock.

It differs for different sites. You'd need to check with them as they set their own time. And if you are not in the regions that XM sells to directly, then you'll need to PO from retailers.

COTD Ladies are drawn with lots of details to them to begin with so artists have lots to work with..... A comic book character your pretty much stuck with their spandex outfit, they're just not drawn with lots of details... And that's going to be conveyed in the statue..... It would be like me complaining about how boring the Superman PF looks like because there's almost no details to him....
I think adding the burning phoenix behind her will make this really pop.... XM are taking these simple characters and adding lots of items around them to make them pop, look at Ant-Man, he's pretty plain looking but adding all the ants like the one breaking through the grate and the one flying off just adds so much more to the details of the statue...
Looks pretty good painted up so far 
You guys are in for a real treat.

God this looks good. I pray that my distributor gets more allocated so I have a shot at this...

I wouldn't be surprised if they kept tweaking the paint application like they have on all their other statues, right up to release date... Also she's going to be huge !!!, looks like she's almost Hulks height without the phoenix behind her....

Wish XM studios would hurry and do the DC line already!
Oké i give up i am so doomed on this piece xD little freaks get crushed by big freaks.
I know the paint up is a comic accurate depiction and it's great imo, and even though I may get stoned for this I'd like to see her done is a variant color scheme of something more sinister along the lines of Dark Phoenix.
Looking at the unpainted proto with the phoenix behind her my mind always painted her uniform in these sinister, fiery tones - red, orange, gold and black - so the green hasn't registered in my brain yet.
