This line may get me back into statue collecting. The blue wave effect really sells the action and motion for me. And using the cosmic treadmill as the base is a nice tip of the hat to the characters silver age history. Your statue reviews really are wonderful in showcasing a statues detail and overall look compared to just looking at pictures on a website. Thanks for all the great content and hard work you put into all your videos!
Finally Gem...you put a towel down instead of putting the statue pieces down on the hard surface. You had nervous for you putting it together. I'm really limited on what I can by but this piece is wicked for sure. I've been off TH-cam for a minute and getting caught up. Great as always Gem.
Gem, at 8:49 when you're showing a close-up from behind, if you look at the back middle of the blue wave to the left, you can see a notch in it for a piece of the gold lightning. Awesome design on this one!
FINALLY!! Been waiting ages for more discussions / videos on the 1/6 DC line. Hope you continue this for the other ones in the line, as I'm still undecided on the Superman :-(
What? A DC piece in the Gempire? I thought I’d never see the day lol! When I saw the thumbnail pic I did a double take. I saw these pieces in person as well in NYCC and I think they look great. Thanks for showcasing this piece, hopefully you can do the others as well
Great review. I just gave one to my nephew for his birthday. XM Studios is doing a great job on the 1/6 scale line. I usually buy 1/4 th scale. XM Studios can be quite pricey but we'll worth it. So glad they came out with a 1/6 th scale line that's more affordable. Flash on a Cosmic Treadmill is Sick!! Where do u get those turntables for statues?
Yo that shit is tight! Been watchin this statue. Might have to pick this up. I already ordered their Wonder Woman and Joker from this line. Really appreciate you showing us and handling a prototype!.... you must feel special!
I already have this on pre-order, but this video reinforced the fact that I made a good decision. I'm always anxious when I pre-order "blind", especially on these MTO pieces ... I'm afraid I'll lose a great priece but the end product might be "problematic" (just look at XM"s Darth Maul piece). It would be good to have more reviews on these pieces, because convention-photos are not enough. I know that this is only a prototype and subject to change, but still beats some photos or random footage from a convention. Keep it up, and if you can get a hold of more of these 1/6 piece form XM and review them, would be great! I already have all of the existing ones on preorder, but I know they're working on the Lobo/Cyborg pieces now, so would be cool to have those reviewed on your channel first ;)
Awesome figure, prepping my statue for printing and trying to figure out how the molds are going to be. I wonder if that Flash statue was printed and cast as one piece or multiple pieces, glued and fixed the seam lines afterwards.
Gem Mint Collectibles Yeah, doing more research on this, eventually when the price of resin or print material goes down and the speed of printing goes up there won't be a need for molding and casting.
Great review as much as I hate d.c. too but that's how awesome the review came out and reading thru the comments everyone don't get it twisted GEM is MARVEL for life yall cheers buddy hopefully u get to b the new prototype reviewer since you keep it real allday everyday
Yooooooooo gem you stepping in to the DC joints lol if any I got to get the prime one Superman shits dope let me kno if you want me to send to you for a review !! Hit me back
Been waiting for you to do a review on this piece! My first impressions are that it looks great for 1/6th scale piece. I like the base, it’s pretty unique and the lines and everything looks clean with a lot of details in it. Flash also looks great, love the dynamic pose they have him in (unlike Kotobukiya flash) and how they have the little lightning effects around him. The costume looks like it’s based off comic book flash and not movie flash, which I prefer so I’m glad they added some shading to the red, otherwise it would look too bright. Couple of changes I hope they will make: 1. The Blue and white vortex pieces should be made in a clear blue resin instead of the solid colors. This would make Flash even more awesome when you have him lit up in a display case. 2. They should drop the price a bit. $500 for a 1/6th scale is kinda high even when factoring in free shipping. I mean 1/4 scale sideshow pieces start at $550. Tweeterhead also makes some really nice 1/6 scale pieces that go for $275 w/o shipping. Anyways, really glad to see your 1st review on a DC piece. I know you personally don’t collect DC stuff but I hope you continue to do more reviews of these pieces from XM Studios. Who knows you might see one that speaks to you 😝
Have a few more questions (sorry to trouble you). Would love to see you do another video answering all the questions! 1. Do you think there may be any leaning issues in the future ? How heavy is the flash? 2. Will there be an art print along with this one? 3. Will there be an assembly booklet or would it be online? (you mentioned that they may put one up online) 4. Wished you showed us the dimensions (depth, height, width). Would've been nice to see it on the video. Thanks again for this. Eagerly waiting to buy this one.
Are my eyes deceiving me or is that a D.C. Statue in the gempire! Great video as always and it's nice that ur giving D.C. Some love. Keep up the great work
Gem, so do you think the 1:6 line is worth it ? I’ve never owned a XM statue before but was looking into getting the 1:6 Batman Hush, what are your thoughts on that piece ? Have you seen it in person ?
Gem Mint Collectibles what, if anything have you heard about the DC tweeterhead line ? I’m looking into the Joker, but he’s selling for quite a bit on eBay. I appreciate your response man, it’s great to get the feedback.
I noticed some empty spaces for the remaining lightning bolts. Some of em were on the blue wooshes. But dude that looks dope as fuck and it would be awesome to see some DC characters for a change instead of marvel all the time (not that I am tired of it coz I love both DC and Marvel. Both are great) and Saitama. That will be dope too coz I enjoy watching One Punch Man. Ooh plus I'm hyped for the new season
Gem your like me your on the all you can eat diet plan. Flash figure rocks, you should get some dc statues their cool as hell. Thx for the video G Man and have a great weekend. You ever get that cow ball taste out of your mouth, wow that caused a stir in the community. LOL later buddy.
Looks great except for one small detail that sticks out like a sore thumb to me. On the second vortex piece at the top. The coloring makes it look like the piece is broken off(which i can see it clearly is not), they should add some color to the tip. You can't see it from the front so its probably not something they are too worried about in a proto.
I don’t get the feeling that flash is really moving fast. The treadmill seems like it is not moving. Without the treadmill it would look better. They should have chosen another base.
this is a dope piece but still not the definitive Flash statue yet. if youre thinking of getting in some DC pieces you gotta get that new Lobo Maquette, the thing is BADASS

That looks beautiful man! Love the towel you lay down lol. Seriously this is one dope piece. For 1/6 collectors this is really nice. Congrats man!

Very nice addition to the collection!
YES!!! it would be awesome to see some DC stuff on the channel!!
You're assembling as fast as The Flash :).....love this statue! Will pre-order one. Great shirt btw Gem ;)
Freek Verzijl haha i didnt even think of that
This is the best Flash statue I've seen. Absolutely rad.
Great looking piece. Also looking forward to their Shazam and Black Adam.
FINALLY!! Been waiting ages for more discussions / videos on the 1/6 DC line. Hope you continue this for the other ones in the line, as I'm still undecided on the Superman :-(
the collector I think we might be getting Superman in too
That piece is sick!!!! Great review, thinking about picking this piece up👍🍻
That's awesome. Hope XM sends you an early prototype of the Lobo statue. I'm undecided between the XM Lobo and the Iron Studios Lobo.
THAT IS ONE BAD ASS PIECE 💎
Props on getting your hands on a prototype!! :)
Your site is awesome, very professional. Congrats!
FF2775 thanks!
dope statue, so much detail. I live in California, space is gold so I’m all about 1/6 scale. Glad XM is putting out this line.
What? A DC piece in the Gempire? I thought I’d never see the day lol! When I saw the thumbnail pic I did a double take. I saw these pieces in person as well in NYCC and I think they look great. Thanks for showcasing this piece, hopefully you can do the others as well

Great FLASH figure you got there Gem, nice!
Best Flash Statue I’ve seen, need to have it
This shit is gorgeous. As a lifelong Flash fan they killed this piece
Yo that shit is tight! Been watchin this statue. Might have to pick this up. I already ordered their Wonder Woman and Joker from this line. Really appreciate you showing us and handling a prototype!.... you must feel special!
Damn he looks sick I’m glad you got some DC in the house great video and we need some DC CGC spotlights also
I already have this on pre-order, but this video reinforced the fact that I made a good decision.

What happened with XM"s Darth Maul?
Awesome figure, prepping my statue for printing and trying to figure out how the molds are going to be. I wonder if that Flash statue was printed and cast as one piece or multiple pieces, glued and fixed the seam lines afterwards.
it could have been. i know thats how some of the customs are done...probably do have 3D printers that are big enough.
Gem Mint Collectibles Yeah, doing more research on this, eventually when the price of resin or print material goes down and the speed of printing goes up there won't be a need for molding and casting.
Great to see you reviewing DC statues! :)
The detail is awesome, I’d like to see more 1/6 stuff myself
Looking good..a lot of pieces to this one..Thanks.
Great review as much as I hate d.c. too but that's how awesome the review came out and reading thru the comments everyone don't get it twisted GEM is MARVEL for life yall cheers buddy hopefully u get to b the new prototype reviewer since you keep it real allday everyday

This statue is awesome. Would love to see more DC statues, especially some Batman ones
Love that statue. But xm or sideshow really needs to do it in 1/4 scale. Great review again brotha.

Are my eyes deceiving me or is that a D.C. Statue in the gempire! Great video as always and it's nice that ur giving D.C. Some love. Keep up the great work
Dang I wasn't sure about jumping in on this. But I think he looks too good to pass up. Great job with the review
You should do more DC stuff from XM studios or other company’s for sure would love to see it...
i have my preorder...awesome!
Thank you for the review...
I must be in the Twilight zone. Gem with a DC piece?! Ya finally came around to the Dynamic competition (DC) Congrats. Nice piece.
That Flash statue is real tight.
awesome review - fantastic surprise - I have all the 1/6 on PO. Thanks
great action shot
Finally showing dc some love.
Extreme detailed statue !
nice early look, bummed out about MTO, hope i can get a PO in before it ends. would love to collect the entire 1/6 Dc line
Really great n cool piece
Looks cool.
Gem, so do you think the 1:6 line is worth it ? I’ve never owned a XM statue before but was looking into getting the 1:6 Batman Hush, what are your thoughts on that piece ? Have you seen it in person ?
personally im not into the 1/6 scale, so for me it would be a no
Gem Mint Collectibles what, if anything have you heard about the DC tweeterhead line ? I’m looking into the Joker, but he’s selling for quite a bit on eBay. I appreciate your response man, it’s great to get the feedback.
Yo!!! That piece is extremely Epic. Only thing that makes me laugh is the treadmill. Never understood why the heck he needs it, it looks too silly 😂
Martin The Collector so he can run fast af in one place and access the speed force
I’m not a DC fan but this is a nice little statue!
Your killin me smalls
I noticed some empty spaces for the remaining lightning bolts. Some of em were on the blue wooshes. But dude that looks dope as fuck and it would be awesome to see some DC characters for a change instead of marvel all the time (not that I am tired of it coz I love both DC and Marvel.

Brotha, where do you get these spectacular t-shirts???
burlington coat factory...love that store
Sick piece
Looks sweet.
What is it you do for a job??
You have so much quality stuff 👍🏻
Hahah The real Pablo Escobar
He's got heat watching be careful asking those questions vato

Looks very nice. Must be nice for people with less space. Those 1/4 can get very big...
wow! this is sweet!
I want this.
Damn no discount code, I am waiting for the first one (Joker) to come out hopefully it drops soon
Gem your like me your on the all you can eat diet plan. Flash figure rocks, you should get some dc statues their cool as hell. Thx for the video G Man and have a great weekend. You ever get that cow ball taste out of your mouth, wow that caused a stir in the community. LOL later buddy.
Dope! Big Moves!
Wish they would've did 1/4 on this
finally a good flash statue
Is it your statue or a loaner? I want the XM Studios Aquaman statue where he is riding a seahorse. What do you think about it?
I think I gotta send it back 😬
@@GemMintCollectibles What do you mean? It could get lost in the mail?
@@GemMintCollectibles What do you think of the XM Aquaman statue?
Was that the one riding the seahorse?
@@GemMintCollectibles Yes. Good to see more DC representation on the channel. Looking forward to seeing more in the future.
Love it♥️
Idk why but this flash statue is making me feel some kinda way I met have to pick it up
Nice Statue.
Bro it's not a turn table it's a lazy Susan lol. Just having fun. Nice statue. Is that the rebirth series?
Jason Ludwick yes!
Looks great except for one small detail that sticks out like a sore thumb to me. On the second vortex piece at the top. The coloring makes it look like the piece is broken off(which i can see it clearly is not), they should add some color to the tip. You can't see it from the front so its probably not something they are too worried about in a proto.
Hey Gembo, I got a question for ya............... what’s your all time favorite video game series from SEGA?👾
Bob Blanton gotta be Sonic brotha
Yeah, that’s a good series, mate! My favorite is the 龍が如くseries!🐉🐲
What a beauty lol
🔥
NICE... ⚡⚡⚡
I don’t get the feeling that flash is really moving fast. The treadmill seems like it is not moving. Without the treadmill it would look better. They should have chosen another base.
this is a dope piece but still not the definitive Flash statue yet. if youre thinking of getting in some DC pieces you gotta get that new Lobo Maquette, the thing is BADASS
😮 yesterday, guys things slowing down a little we have some Omni videos coming.
Today - jk we have PROTOTYPES 🔥
Divine lol I know right. It came right after I posted that video
I’m a big xm fan and have too many. But this is definitely not something I would buy. I’m not a big fan of 1/6 scale statues anyway.
I am speed
