Never seen any of your videos before, but i think i paused this one like 5 times to watch the other ones you had as you referenced them. Great collection and great rundown of the pieces.
Great to go through everything that has been and was. Crazy to see the amount I actually caught you unbox week to week. Keep growing the channel dude, love your work.
The Spider-Man Villian week def. got me into the channel and got me collecting statues. Love this channel man. My go to every time I get off work. Don’t stop
You had an epic collection, impressed that you could just let them go. Spidey villain wall and Spidey 2099 is what got me hooked. Look forward to see what you do next bud, keep well
Dope video Gem, I'm glad you did this one. Kinda took me down memory lane with my own statue collecting. I've been collecting statue a bit longer, but never quite indulged as much as you did. I will said you are the guy who turned me on to XM studios. They are turning out some great pieces and I'm all in... just gotta hide some of the orders from the wife. Appreciate all you do for the statue community!👍
Love the long videos like this with you just shootin the shit about your purchases man! Dig the hell out of it. Highlights in your collection gotta be that custom scarlet spider, Maniac Venom, the XM lizard, and I loved the ridiculous sized Venom Unhinged. Definitely the stand outs for me!
I love watching your videos about statues, it's probably what got me into the channel. I like learning about them and seeing them but there is no way I could collect them. Too big, and like you mentioned a few times, I'd just break the shit out of them. This was a great video man!
I feel you on statues. After my first one I am so hooked and trying to balance my paycheck in accordance with all the pre orders Bc seeing a piece in person is so much different than pics or videos. Keep up the great work!
One of the favorites is definitely the Prime Venom. Binge watching Gem and work, and this video made me realize I now own at least 7 of your old pieces.. You also forgot the huge Venom custom piece, with the water bursting out of the pipes.
I didn’t know how much I wanted a video like this till I saw the thumbnail. Such a good video, it was very informative and there were a lot of funny little things like you reminiscing on pieces that frustrated you and that little shout-out to Atim have a shitload of names 😂. This was a joy to watch man, but yeah definitely a good idea from Stephanie. Thanks Phie! It turned out to be a great vid 👍🏼
Absolute the BEST Statue reviewer out there! Nice trip down to memoryland ;)...Scorpion XM Studios still my absolute favorite. Regrets till this day for not buying it when it was still available :(
I do a lot of resin 3d printing and hollowing cuts down costs exponentially. A solid resin bust of that size would be costly to print. I don't sell them as no licence, but I could see printing them solid if it appealed to people. I print a bunch of busts and paint them, never thought to display them like this.. This might be my new spending habit! No Idea why RUclips showed me this video but glad to be here! Great content!
Agree with you about every piece is crazy for the exception of getting out of the DC statue collecting and imo XM venom I love . Prime 1 Hush Dc line is mad crazy... Superman is my main statue I love up there with my Thanos Ex detail and Hush Batman.
Loved a lot of your statues gem, and I’ve got a lot of them in my wish list Hulk my fav character so those were some of my favourites of yours. As always I’m looking forward to your future reviews 🤘🏻
Nice video, I did this with my collection tour video but love the split screen idea. Always love to hear the story behind the statue. Great work brother!
Sick video, my bro.. it was great to reminisce on the collection-- all of your comments on each one directly lines up with your comments at the time in the original videos on them which brought me back to when I first saw all of them. Love it. Fuck the elitists who don't like that hobgoblin. IT IS the best hobby to date. Collections change and evolve-- pumped to see where you take the statue collection (bc you & I know you ain't actually done with em lol) next. Statue vid that stands out to me the most: all of em.
Man I loved that Spidey wall. That was my dream set up. Gonna miss that. Glad to see you haven't left the game. Haven't missed a statue unboxing/review. I live through you and look forward to seeing many more.
Now this is a dope video idea brotha! Love seeing your collection journey through the years. Big ups for the shout out! 23:55💎👊🏾 I know you hate it but I’m still feeling that XM Carnage I got off of you though😝✌🏾
Wow this was fantastic 👏. You make my job easy. This is in today's lineup and will be in tomorrow's recap . 👍 My favorite piece was the Thanos on the throne.
Great video as always brother! Your collection was insane. That miles morales piece really just stuck to me tho and I just copped it after watching this lol
GEM love the content man your videos really got me back into the love of comics and collecting statues , and now collecting omnibus 😂...keep the material coming 👍🏼👍🏼
Hey Gem love the channel, I was thinking if you could make a video explaining the comics in those cases and what the grading means and why it's so important. I hope I'm not the only one who doesn't understand what any of it means, keep up the good work
I loved the mixed medium Wolverine that wasn't in this video. Did you keep your high end slabbed comic books? Honestly, it took me a minute to appreciate what you do. Now I love your videos and watch multiple videos a day. Keep rocking it!
My favorite pieces were Ironman and hulk buster. And the Ghost rider. This was an awesome video. Loved hearing about the stories behind the statues and your opinion on them. And dude. They are your statues. Sell them if you want. It’s awesome seeing your channel grow and with each video you put out? I can totally see this channel doing more then what you guys are doing now.
Very awesome video. I love the action poses too. I think the future will show more of that, w/ more lighting effects and perhaps some AR perks? Like sounds, theme song, a battle you can watch off you mobile. That they can update annually, for a cost on an app! I got into all the XM Samurai Batman figures, until Harley Quinn. Just can't even look at it.
Been down from the jump. Statues have always been my favorite part of your channel. I'm down regardless tho. Don't always comment but I'm always viewing. Stay up, Bruh.
Awesome video, definitely have me reconsidering Capt by Daniel Bell I have the THOR , DAREDEVIL...awesome pieces ... one my favs from your channel was the Silver Surfer unique ... paired Awesome with Galactus ... **my favorite over all was your Cosmic corner **... keep them coming 👍
Love that Hulkbuster and P1 Venom. The Daniel Bell Thor is dope as well. I debated on his Cap, but went with the 1/3 through XM and Legendary Beast instead so we will see how that comes out.
I dont think I would have got into statues before 2019. I've seen a lot of pre 2019 statues and it seems Sideshow and Prime 1 have improved a lot the last couple of years. Although maybe in 5 years they will be even better and today's won't look as good.
SupermanKelly™ I collected from before anybody thought it was cool to show off how many stairs you own/have owned. You know that the best stuff sideshow has ever made was way before the marvel and DC hype beasts took the industry over. The real grails are over 8 years old now.
Damn, l can remember watching all those statue review video. I remember that Spidey 2099 unboxing and the disappointment on your face when it broke. Those unedited video are my favorite. Thanks for sharing, Gem.
Awesome videos! Stumbled on your videos about a week ago.Ive been a hardcore Marvel fan since the x-men animated series in the 90's and the spiderman animated series. Weapon X, Thanos on the throne and Galactus my favorite statues so far. That Juggernaut you just picked up recently is very cool as well. Looking forward to seeing the new sideshow Cable unboxing.
The ugly Carnage got me subscribed. I was deciding which Carnage statue to pic. And oh boy i'm so happy I got the Sideshow one. Cheers brother. Subbed and notifications on!
I love the video I remember watching when your channel was new and I was just trying to get into the omnibus game. Man you helped me spend some money lol
New to the channel. Glad I found you! Also - that Silver Surfer - enshrouded in the darkness of space? Looks so sick. I think it's rare to see colors for characters in situations. usually it's as if they have had some kind of photo shoot with perfect lighting. Never like...a shot of someone against a neon sign and that sign's tint on their face? OOOH too real. Could do more homage to actual panels with that kind of thing. Anyway I love that Surfer. Looks so good with Galactus. Great vid. Is your job hiring? :D
Man you're making me want to get into statues so I can get a Hawkeye, Spider-Man 2099, Mimic, Sentry, Beta Ray Bill, ....f$&@ look what you've done man now I got the itch damn it man keep up the great work
Yooooooooo playa gem !!! Always good vids man the hulkbuster and ghost rider dammm playa boy u cost me like 5 gs lol had to step it up and play with the big boys and I sold it!! But deft like how u jus flip it and don’t get stuck with the same old keepnit moving wish I could be like that !!
Nothing wrong with you selling what you're bored of. The only one of all these that I think was a mistake selling was the Thor Brimstone by Sideshow. That piece is unbelievably amazing and so far to me at least, the best statue I have the privilege of owning. I am blown away by mine. I seriously think in a few years that piece is going to increase in price alot. But don't get me wrong, it isn't it's worth that makes me keep it. It is its presence. They didn't just knock it out of the park, they hammered it into the stratosphere with this Thor.
you had an awesome collection, one that really stood out was the galactus/silver surfer one...but I did not see one I really disliked :) well, maybe the first captain america statue with that weird into the air look lol
I remember that venom dark origins statue review. I got on the waitlist because of that review. Got it a few weeks back but it still in boxes because my wrist hasn’t healed up fully yet. But yeah, good shit lol.
I am a little surprised you never got any Deadpool statues. Isn’t it funny to see the changes we do over the years. I went from collecting Eaglemoss 1/21 scale to now Prime 1 1/3 scale 😅
My favorite piece was hands down that XM STORM hate the seam but she's still my favorite XMEN ladyhands down and congrats on the great pieces u were able to have in hand and review bro
OMG those Mortal Kombat stats, the later ones, Jade, Mileena, Ermac, Goro & my fav Reptile, ur killn me! Green with envy over here! O and must b a theme, i got a Spiderman 2099 too, diff co though, & 1st time i put it together if fell & broke the web cape🤬🤬
Man, that Batman actually made me laugh out loud.
I don't even own a statue yet but I couldn't turn this video off. Well done.
Frednizer if that’s you on profile picture you look like captain price
Never seen any of your videos before, but i think i paused this one like 5 times to watch the other ones you had as you referenced them. Great collection and great rundown of the pieces.
Great to go through everything that has been and was. Crazy to see the amount I actually caught you unbox week to week. Keep growing the channel dude, love your work.
I couldn't do what you did for the channel. So much respect for doing this for your people all over the world 💎💪🇬🇧
What an awesome collection you had! You still having awesome upcoming pieces!👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Great video gem! Brought up a lot of great memories watching you just start out. You're a super star now, congrats man
“Slipping on a banana peel” 😹😹
The Spider-Man Villian week def. got me into the channel and got me collecting statues. Love this channel man. My go to every time I get off work. Don’t stop
You had an epic collection, impressed that you could just let them go. Spidey villain wall and Spidey 2099 is what got me hooked. Look forward to see what you do next bud, keep well
No, you can’t unsee Hulk slipping on a banana Peel 😂😂

Wow it's amazing how you went from such under developed pieces to great quality
Loved a lot of your statues gem, and I’ve got a lot of them in my wish list
Hulk my fav character so those were some of my favourites of yours.
As always I’m looking forward to your future reviews 🤘🏻
Hulk is the strongest one there is

Amazing video. Thanks for sharing your journey in the world of statues. I’d love to get one someday.
Damn you had a lot of great stuff. Can’t believe u had some DC statues lol. Found your channel during Spider-Man villains week as well
Now this is a dope video idea brotha! Love seeing your collection journey through the years. Big ups for the shout out! 23:55💎👊🏾 I know you hate it but I’m still feeling that XM Carnage I got off of you though😝✌🏾
loving this video I'm becoming amazed at GEMint!
Great content as usual! Inspiration to me as I’m starting my collection.🙌🏽
Wow this was fantastic 👏. You make my job easy. This is in today's lineup and will be in tomorrow's recap . 👍 My favorite piece was the Thanos on the throne.
5:08 I love that statue.
Impressive! My favorite is the XM Scorpion, one day I'll get that, lol! Thanks for sharing!
Great video as always brother! Your collection was insane. That miles morales piece really just stuck to me tho and I just copped it after watching this lol
GEM love the content man your videos really got me back into the love of comics and collecting statues , and now collecting omnibus 😂...keep the material coming 👍🏼👍🏼
Hey Gem love the channel, I was thinking if you could make a video explaining the comics in those cases and what the grading means and why it's so important. I hope I'm not the only one who doesn't understand what any of it means, keep up the good work
Great video extensive collection the venoms were really awesome!
I loved the mixed medium Wolverine that wasn't in this video.
Did you keep your high end slabbed comic books?
Honestly, it took me a minute to appreciate what you do. Now I love your videos and watch multiple videos a day.
Keep rocking it!
i dont collect CGC books anymore. But i do broker deals for high end books
There were some I thought were amazing that you said were lacking. The Yellow mane on Sabertooth to match his hair was genius. Good stuff
My favorite pieces were Ironman and hulk buster. And the Ghost rider. This was an awesome video. Loved hearing about the stories behind the statues and your opinion on them. And dude. They are your statues. Sell them if you want. It’s awesome seeing your channel grow and with each video you put out? I can totally see this channel doing more then what you guys are doing now.
I can’t get over Akuma’s face, it’s looks like a messed up Napoleon dynamite
Very awesome video. I love the action poses too. I think the future will show more of that, w/ more lighting effects and perhaps some AR perks? Like sounds, theme song, a battle you can watch off you mobile. That they can update annually, for a cost on an app! I got into all the XM Samurai Batman figures, until Harley Quinn. Just can't even look at it.
Been down from the jump. Statues have always been my favorite part of your channel. I'm down regardless tho. Don't always comment but I'm always viewing. Stay up, Bruh.
Awesome video, definitely have me reconsidering Capt by Daniel Bell I have the THOR , DAREDEVIL...awesome pieces ... one my favs from your channel was the Silver Surfer unique ... paired Awesome with Galactus ... **my favorite over all was your Cosmic corner **... keep them coming 👍
Love that Hulkbuster and P1 Venom. The Daniel Bell Thor is dope as well. I debated on his Cap, but went with the 1/3 through XM and Legendary Beast instead so we will see how that comes out.
YOU HAD A DOPE ASS COLLECTION. MY FAVORITES WERE THE COSMIC LINE.👊🏼👍🏼👍🏼
You should definitely get Goku from Prime1, the fire paint apps will make sure you don’t regret it, do it for the channel! Much respect man!
This video was kickass! I hope one day i can join the club of buying a statue off of you.
Thanks for sharing, incredible collection. Really wished that I was able to pick up the GHOST RIDER , SCORPION, and RHINO statues from you.
Love these type of Vids, and the history behind it. Wish i kept track of my pieces.
I dont think I would have got into statues before 2019. I've seen a lot of pre 2019 statues and it seems Sideshow and Prime 1 have improved a lot the last couple of years. Although maybe in 5 years they will be even better and today's won't look as good.

Damn, l can remember watching all those statue review video. I remember that Spidey 2099 unboxing and the disappointment on your face when it broke. Those unedited video are my favorite. Thanks for sharing, Gem.
That’s when I found the channel during the Spider-Man villain week. Great videos then and now. Glad I found the channel
Awesome videos! Stumbled on your videos about a week ago.Ive been a hardcore Marvel fan since the x-men animated series in the 90's and the spiderman animated series. Weapon X, Thanos on the throne and Galactus my favorite statues so far. That Juggernaut you just picked up recently is very cool as well. Looking forward to seeing the new sideshow Cable unboxing.
me too! should be soon
I'm digging the 4k format. Keep it up.
I think Magneto on Throne is my favorite piece you had. This was def a walk down memory lane
XM Ghost Rider, that’s a perfect piece
The ugly Carnage got me subscribed.
I was deciding which Carnage statue to pic. And oh boy i'm so happy I got the Sideshow one.
Cheers brother. Subbed and notifications on!
Ahhh you got the Infinity Saga Box Set behind ya, totally worth the $ and wanted that for a while
Stay Minty indeed! Great video!
I love the video I remember watching when your channel was new and I was just trying to get into the omnibus game. Man you helped me spend some money lol

Looks so good with Galactus. Great vid. Is your job hiring? :D
PHENOMENAL. Nice editing
All awesome arts
I like the Wolverine & Hulk, Scorpion Thoe brimstone is the best. You have great collection of all those key Marvel comics.
I really like your channel man, cool stuff!
Man you're making me want to get into statues so I can get a Hawkeye, Spider-Man 2099, Mimic, Sentry, Beta Ray Bill, ....f$&@ look what you've done man now I got the itch damn it man keep up the great work
That Magneto on the throne is awesome!!
Fun video Gem. Look forward to the new wave man!
My favorite piece to come across the gempire MANIAC VENOM after watching your review I tracked it down and purchased it! Love it
I’m old school, I guess, but I love the Randy Bowen Marvel museum statues. The good thing about them is they don’t take up too much room.
I agree. Bowen Museum Statues are awesome. They are so comic accurate, way more than all the newer stuff. They also don't take up a lot of room.
Yooooooooo playa gem !!! Always good vids man the hulkbuster and ghost rider dammm playa boy u cost me like 5 gs lol had to step it up and play with the big boys and I sold it!! But deft like how u jus flip it and don’t get stuck with the same old keepnit moving wish I could be like that !!

They didn't just knock it out of the park, they hammered it into the stratosphere with this Thor.
Love the Magneto on Throne. I figure if I spend that much might as well go all out and preorder the Venom bust. Just can’t pull the trigger
Those statue are bigger than life ✊🏻 DANG.
Saludos desde Costa Rica! Great channel!
you had an awesome collection, one that really stood out was the galactus/silver surfer one...but I did not see one I really disliked :) well, maybe the first captain america statue with that weird into the air look lol
Super proud Subscriber of this Channel..Bro, you're home is like a Live in Museum!
Glad your still in the game. You had me worried. Stay Minty! 💎
My new favorite video of yours
I remember that venom dark origins statue review. I got on the waitlist because of that review. Got it a few weeks back but it still in boxes because my wrist hasn’t healed up fully yet. But yeah, good shit lol.
loved the rogue sculpts
The Lizard statue is very cool looking!
I am a little surprised you never got any Deadpool statues. Isn’t it funny to see the changes we do over the years. I went from collecting Eaglemoss 1/21 scale to now Prime 1 1/3 scale 😅
i always felt like the OG sideshow was underscaled and the heatseaker...i just hated the pose.
I love that Rouge statue collection.
Great journey video! my fav pc is either Sandman or Mysterio!
The Sandman pose is accurate from the Marvel universe series 4 cards with the WILD PACK team along side with Silver Sable.
My favorite piece was hands down that XM STORM hate the seam but she's still my favorite XMEN ladyhands down and congrats on the great pieces u were able to have in hand and review bro
Lol Atim does remind me of Al Borland!!😁😝😂😭
Dope video as always
Prob a lot to ask for but can you make a "Every Slab I owned/own" they just looked awesome displayed next to your statues.
i have thought of that. i think its a good idea!
Aw man that hulkbuster !!
OMG those Mortal Kombat stats, the later ones, Jade, Mileena, Ermac, Goro & my fav Reptile, ur killn me! Green with envy over here! O and must b a theme, i got a Spiderman 2099 too, diff co though, & 1st time i put it together if fell & broke the web cape🤬🤬
Damn! Cool video, sounds like this video should be called every statue I've ever owned....part 1 😂
I was itching to buy something...I feel that every weekend.
The XM Hulkbuster Iron-Man is my favorite up to this point
Dude I love your statchus man I wish I had some of those
The Spider-Man Symbiote premium format from SideShow, the Thanos on throne and the Hulkbuster are my favorite
Cowabunga fam 🤙 100k here we come 👊
