Sideshow won this battle pretty easy. The XM Spider-Man looks like a shiny plastic toy. I wouldn't pay $150 for the XM.
Honestly Iâm shocked that Iâm voting for XM. It was an easy pass for me and I ordered SS but I think XM for the win
same for me one this one
How was this posted a week ago ? đ

Nah. Iâm with Mr Gem here. The XM looks too cartoony.
I'm not sure how they compare in person but just on your video sideshow's looks head and shoulders better than XM's. Between price and shipping, SS easily wins IMO.
Important to note the 2 types of collectors: ones that keep their statues FOREVER vs ones that buy & resell
Word Up!đ Sideshow is a keeper!
Resellers ruin everything
They both so dang good looking Damn one is going for the gritty realistic look the other is my nostalgic ps1 Spider-Man
Lmao!! Your killing the thunbnail game rn.
Comparison game strong. This needs to be a series
Gem Mint, this year's Super Bowl referee
Iâve been waiting for this video to drop during schoolđ
I've recently found your videos. I love them I full screen every time!! currently going through your back catalogue
I am surprised Sideshow takes the win, but lately they been really stepping up their game.
Word Up!đ
Yooooo, G-Mint this show was fire! I love this kind of comparison content. Hope to see more. Going to check your channel for the older ones you mentioned.
they were really early one...like Thanos on Throne, Sideshow Carnage...
Man great video yo!! Excited to see more of these. Both are really nice statues. I like the paint job in the sideshow .love the shadowing
In comparison the Look and the Price it's a easy win for Sideshow!đ
yeah i wouldnt pay 350 more for the XM.
The paint on Sideshow is so dull and muted though
@@markjanssens1658 XM is too flashy and cartoony. Sideshow is subdue and bit realistic. In a battle I'll go with dull and mute. Make yourself a hard target. Stay Minty Fresh!đ
Great detailed vid. Really enjoyed the the format and comparison.
Great comparison, I personally have always loved the sideshow models so to actually hear about the practicalities in this manner is really useful.
This is one of your best videos to date - high energy, fast paced, lots of valuable information. Love it man.
XM just slightly edges out SS for me. At the end of the day it comes down to the paint - SS has lots of shading going on which I do like, but I think itâs overdone and makes spidey look darker than he should. Itâs close though and I do think both are very nice. I do think the poses are different enough, I highly doubt SS intended to copy or take heavy inspiration from XM.
Great video đ
thanks Samy
Agreed about it being a bit too dark but IMO itâs not enough to make XM the winner.
All in all great Review always love to watch youâre statue video. Keep up the good work
Just curious to know if you have you have pieces by Bowen and if you do what do you think about their work?
Ok. Sold. Thank you very much!
They're both absolutely amazing. Sideshow wins for me overall. Agreed with everything but the resale value because I wouldn't be reselling it down the road haha.
Agreed. I'm keeping the Sideshow Spider-Man. Definitely will be adding it to my "Hall of Fame" room.
Great view. I should be getting my SS today. Pumped!
Really enjoyed this one and agree with you on all points. Fun video!
I think an unmasked portrait on the SS piece would make it a grail for me, anyone know if any have been made?
Great comparison. I think i am going to go with Sideshow. Is it me on does the XM spidey character look a little small compared to the Sideshow one. could be the camera. Thanks
Thanks for doing this! I love the satiny paint app on the Sideshow piece, but prefer the XM for everything else.
Love them both!
New subscriber here! Gotta say I'm happy I found this channel! Great quality videos man!
welcome!
Awesome vid brother,keep up the good work!!
Very informative and straight to the point , keep it up đ
SS is clearly the winner on this one, going to pair this with the P1 Venom... XM had a shiny to glossy (scaled down) look for Spider-man .
Word Up! That will be an Amazing Pairing.đ
Well thought out and put together đđ€đŸđ
I was waiting for this video. Just ordered my first statue, i went with SS đ€đŒ
Ive been debating this for days! I think this really helped with my decision.
How size of spidy? It seems xm is smaller than SS.
This video was awesome and informative. I am really enjoying to watch your. God Bless from Japan
for me its the XM one that is the best looking one, love the scene around him and the spider man himself looks more like the ones in the comics. also prepair the mcfarlane head on the sideshow piece, looks more OG spidy :D
Lol digging the Refs Polo shirt.
Yeah I like the SS one best its a nice statue
Great pieces!
LOVE this idea for format.
So...give-away the Sideshow statue instead for the contest? Lol
Love it, Gem, great content this week!
That Tobey face makes me đđ
Agree 100%
Agreed
Loved this type of videođ
More please.
Maybe compare a magneto on throne vs doctor doom on throne?
Cool stuff love it đđ
Bout to make my first Premium Format purchase. Every time I think about getting a statue, I purchase a bunch of hot toys instead. Not this time. Favorite characters are Spider-Man and Iron Man. Would this SS Spider-Man be a good first pick up? Or should I wait for that new Iron Man VII Marquette? Could also consider that Gambit.
After a long day but fun day at work( Elem. Art teacher) itâs cool to turn on my phone and see these epic Spiderman statues on display. Lol
which one you think will pair better with the xm doctor octopus coming out
I would say XM since itâll probably have similar looking arms for doc ock
All collectors want discounts. Hence, sales price is usually far below ask price.
Wow..you gave i really intresting interview. Man i would think like that. Thank for everything you're doing.
Nice comparison video. Canât wait for a SS Gambit vs XM Gambit end of year or 2021. Canât wait for the SS version aka the 1 I can afford.
I agree with u Gem! That outfit tho! Lol đ
Love the Sideshow one!
I can definitely see that sideshow's piece would more so be for owning where as XM would be more of a collectors item to sell way down the line like you're saying. I mean for that shipping cost........that's pretty ridiculous.
Awesome job man!
When you gotta work at Footlocker at 4, but got to get your YT video shot by 3.
I'm playing haha, definitely like the XM Studios statue better!
Great video idea. Love a comparison
Hey Gem, do you prefer this Sideshow Spider-Man, or the previous one (with the hobgoblin bombs on base and the funny colored explosion)?
tought to say...i might lean toward the one with the pumpkin bombs
sideshow for sure. love the detailing and just the overall look of it
Sculpt and paint are always number one for me
Great points in the review!
Both of em cold fr but the xm studio one went crazy with the ripped mask đđ„
Gawd, theyâre both great. That XM pose is ridiculous, IMO.
I would have both of them. Both are good in there own ways
Keep up good work
Nice comparison video!
The xm gets the W, its close they are both great looking statues. đ„ l watched your Logan review the other day and had to cop one for myself. So keep up the good work mang. đ
Agreed 100%. I like XM pieces and have two of them so far, but I definitely preferred the Sideshow Spidey and ended up purchasing it.
The comparison review is awesome. It's cool the way you do it . It was straight forward and you even out the difference between the two. But I do like the slideshow peace better.
Im finally clearing up space for my first big statue. It's a hard choice because i only want one! Im looking at all your videos to get ideas.
Easy win for xm bro
That side show collectable is frikkin gorgeous
Both awesome pieces, I think I'd go with the Sideshow one if I had the choice
Hahaha loved the video thumbnail, SS spiderman for me allday.
Gem man not sure if itâs new but the blue and red lighting working the book cases look great man!
I like the sideshow piece because Spider-Man is the focal point of the statue you can see him in all angles. The xm piece feels as if the base is the focal point and Spider-Man is a side accessory.
Iâm digging the XM myself
Exactly what I was thinking, Sideshow to me has a better sculpt and paint. I really like the suit on Sideshows Spider-Man. Great job!
There's something about the blue on the SS PF that I am in love with. Actually even the red even though it doesn't "pop" like the XM red, I love the metallic shimmer it has. Lastly in the video at least, the paint on the XM looks plastic even though I know it's not, where the SS piece looks like a real suit that he created with tons of shadowing. Although I don't have any Spidey statues yet, once I get a Venom I'm going to be buying one and it's probably going to be SS. Not a huge fan of the XM piece, although it aint bad.
I WANT ONE!!!
First time I really disagree, XM wins every category for me.... we buy what we like! :)
Pretty much agree with 100% of what you said. The paint really stands out as superior one the sideshow piece. And I like the Spiderman is the focal point of the statue. Good comparison! Thanks Gem
Lmao..Ref shirt and all love it nice touch
This is so awesome
awesome comparison video and i agree...pose XM wins but not that much since SS one is good already...but paint work and sculpt SS is better.
most of the time SS's statues have more depth in term of paint work and sculpt than XM's...not to mention Sideshow pieces are display "friendly".
Great comparison video buddy as usual my only gripe is that XM made way too many changes to this guy i know they wanted to make the base smaller to save on cost but dammit man that cost them points with design and everything cause the original had multiple swapouts with various villains they took away but still a good match still and great review cheers
i like the darker tone on spiderman on SS and the base of the tentacles
The SS here is my favorite by far but because I live in France I got the taxes for it as well... Don't regret it at all nevertheless, it looks so amazing next to the Symbiote variant of a past Spider-Man statue released by SS (I noticed you have it in your Scarlet Spider unboxing). It would have been so nice next to some of the XM 1:4 Spider-Villain you also unboxed. Really astonashing pieces I missed. Mysterio, Scorpion, Vulture and Sandman were my favorites. Great Sinister Six diorama I will never be able to make. I really want to buy the Mystique you unboxed last year, it was a "fall in love at first sight" statue but again, so expansive with the taxes. :/
Love the channel, man. The Sideshow Spider-Man statue looks cooler.
XM for the win! The pose, concept, switch outs. EVERYTHING ! XM takes the W
But obviously for price wise SideShow
Even thou my SideShow Spidey is coming in next week, XM takes W
Yooooooooooooo GEM !!! I am deft feeling that XM joint SS is nice but I like that 3 dift body swtichs but they both good!! Good review as always !! Hope al is well âđ»âđ»
The shading and base does it for me in the ss piece. Xm had a cool idea though but im not sure I like the end result as much as SS. I still line xm tho but SS looks a bit better
This video was dope ! Lol Gem came correct with the ref suit haha. Well deserved win for SS though both look great but they took it in the end
Haha nice touch with the ref getup đ
I agree SS takes the win. Would be cool to do comparisons for upcoming Sabertooth or Cyclops pieces
if theyre both in at the same time i will for sure
I just bought some mint gum.....i know that doesn't have anything to do with the video but, good job as always đ
Its official like a ref wit a whistle. It all came down to paint for me. Sideshow got it. The XM is too glossy
Don't hold your breath waiting for that XM statue to appreciate in value.....
Another flawless I interview . For Spider-Man I am forever loyal to the Aurora Model of Spider-Man (on staircase rails) and Kraven from 1974; it represents the East Side of Buffalo and has a piece of my soul.
I like the SideShow Spider-Man the best. Thanks, Gem Mint.
