XM Studios Namor 1/4 Statue

[iwaboi]

You guys have been talking about pre-orders in recent conversation and I was quite curious to find out, can ppl not from America (or Asia, for that matter) not pre-order from the XM website? Is it due to shipping limitations or whatnot? I'm still new to the scene here, so figured I'd might as well find out as much as possible about the company.

This Namor is boss. I never liked the undies design.

Competition is good and SS needed to open its eyes. I'v noticed a drop in their recent ES but they have also started raising prices. Paint apps seem to be getting better but I can also see they are cutting cost on materials. I want SS to succeed and I want XM to succeed as well. In a perfect world SS would have better quality and XM would be able to ship here in the US. All I know is cost are going up for getting XM pieces and the market can't sustain that forever. Shipping is maybe 200 to 250 but now I gotta add a middleman and pay even more. At the same time, for me, I'm still chasing XM pieces down and the added expense is leaving less money for other companies like SS. I'v always been a big Marvel guy and when I see the XM Thanos, Phoenix, Wolverine, Magneto, Blackbolt and Medussa its a no brainer. They are must haves for my collection. I don't know if XM can go the distance but man I'm gonna get what I can while I can.

IT definitely sucks to have to pay so much more than my area. Felt it when I had to order SS exc stuff back in the days.

Thanks for clearing that up so am I to understand that preorders sell out within a matter of a few minutes even without competition from you guys from USA? Damn that sounds crazy...

 

[Legion_Heartbreaker]

can't wait for the final design to come out

Look great I'm no a fan this character but look really good maybe for the illuminates group

 

[izeroi]

Looks like this base is going to be massive.

 

[Trace]

its like half of the cost of the statue is due to the base

 

[venawn]

its like half of the cost of the statue is due to the base

Haga yeah

Aaahhhhh, XM Studios is truly every collector's dream fvcking company within this industry. Every design may not be every man's/woman's cup of tea, but man you can always appreciate & marvel at their passion, skill, & love of the genre. Truly a company for the ages. Bravo! Well done! And thank you XM Studios, for pushing the bar, & keeping the fans of this industry giddy with anticipation & wonder. And all this from a guy who has not even had the pleasure of seeing an XM piece in person. Truly lucky are those that own some of these wonderful fantasy works of art.


P.S. The Namor concept is brilliant, detailed, ................stunning! I shudder to think what is in store for all us fans when XM tackles VS dios! I literally salivate at the thought.

Like I said at SF, Namor's waist is too wide and his thighs are too short. The first three pics above looks awkward because of this.

I've been waiting for this ...and need this to look great! XM's initial sneak peek had better proportions. Namor's waist was perfect in that pic.

Namor looks so much better in these pics (middle pic).

I LOVE the concept. This is what SSC should have done with the Aquaman figure.

 

[yodasan]

Not a big fan of this version so far but maybe the paint will change my mind.

 

[marker2037]

Way too big. The space needed to display him is probably the footprint of 3 1/4 scale pieces when you consider the trident as well.

Davy's Jones would look good on that squid haha
