Has Sideshow ever considered the Phantasm films?

Are there any plans to do a PF of Jason as he appeared in FTT part VII the new blood?
(I think that a lot of people would want one!)

Thanks!
It has been discussed selling them as a set but nothing is set in stone on how they will roll out for order. Right now I have no locked down time frame as to when they will be made available to order. Just sign-up on the RSVP list on the preview page for them and you'll be notified right when they are up for order!

I really won't have answer to this as I'm not part of the design process. Although more conformity with the bases has been occurring with the line it's entirely possible that a future piece warrants something that breaks that conformity due to the choice of character, the story the piece will want to convey, etc.

Please remind me. Thank you and sorry for being such a pain!
Sorry, there has been no revelation as to the Pre-Order date for Magneto yet. Since he is getting some tweaks that will delay his solicitation. More than likely he will still Pre-Order sometime before the end of 2017 if the tweaks don't take too long.

Rey is till estimated to ship between September and November of this year and as of today seems to ship sometime within that three month time frame.

The forearm part should be longer too. Also just as a general rule of thumb, in regards to a scope the side with the opening large enough for the eye is actually facing the person wielding the gun. Hero and stunt never had the armor that far down either and the breast plate ridges are closer to rogue 1 then ANH :|
Just passing along the explanation as given to me to give y'all context about why the armor looked they way it did.

All concerns regarding this piece from various groups were passed along to the right parties weeks ago. At the time of my original response all that was being tweaked was what I mentioned. If anything else is relayed to me in regards to changes I will let y'all know!

Sorry but I really don't know if any of those characters are in the pipeline. I know I'd personally like to see a Nova or Gladiator one day!

How soon would that be, are you able to say?
Thank you!
Red Sonja SHOULD be up for Pre-Order before the end of this year. Possibly even within the next couple of months.

Many blessings and good'ay unto yooose guyssss.
Maybe that woodchuck to chuck 10 pounds? I really don't know their full strength, so just throwing out a guess.

As for Gambit or Cyclops...unfortunately like many of my answers for so many other pieces people are hoping for...I just do not know. These are two well-liked character around Sideshow, so hopefully they'll be new representations of them in the future!

Magneto should Pre-Order before the end of this year.

Leatherface is looking like he'll hit a late August/September ship date.

We don't have the Monkey Island license, so there would be nothing being developed by Sideshow from that property.

[QUOTE=SONICobra;5488326]hello alex, do you know if the gap will be changed on magnetos collar for production? thanks!

I know the collar is one part of Magento that was being looked at for possible tweaking. I don't if it for sure will be and if it is what the change will be until I actually see it in a fully completed form.

Part creative and part just not an element that would looked right for a piece of this scale when viewing at various angles. Those 'eyes' meant to float there, so to try and create that effect at that scale wasn't working out visually as no matter what kind of material one would use, you still see tubes running put from the sockets to hold the 'eyes' in place.

It's still not 100% a finished prototype yet as the exclusive is still being completed but the hope is to have him up for Pre-Order this year.

For now it's just sixth scale BUT perhaps in the future Statues will be brought in (at least that's my hope).

Sideshow's had my money and many others money for like 1.5 Years and Hot Toys and Sideshow have not had the decency to give a single update or apology.

On behalf of everyone who is waiting can we PLEASE have an update?

Thanks
ALIEN
So sorry for the wait on Ellen Ripley. Unfortunately we rarely receive updates regarding delays from Hot Toys, so Sideshow doesn't have an answer as to the whys for the lateness of this figure. If the piece has slipped out of it's original estimated shipping time people can contact our customer service directly (if they ordered through us) to cancel their order and inquire about NRD refunds. Again, so sorry for the delay on that piece.

There MIGHT be another Rogue One piece in the future but nothing is for sure at this time.

Any new Predator items are little ways out. The soonest would be sometime next year at this point.

See my answer above regarding Punisher that someone else was asking about.

Now as to whether a new Punisher piece would be fully sculpted or not..I don't know what direction would be taken for a potential new Punisher piece.

Comiquette is now a retired term. It was used for comic related pieces long ago that were not typically quarter scale in size (there were exceptions from time to time of course).

Maquettes are typically items that are movie based in 1/5 scale or bigger or more complex/larger items in various other scales, or one or all of the above that are done in partnership with another entity (such as Legacy Effects for example).

Example - Thanos on Throne Maquette is more 1/4 scale in size BUT he's a bigger and much more complex 1/4 scale time. Alien King Maquette is smaller than 1/4 scale but is movie based, complex and was done in partnership with Legacy effects.

Sideshow will be attending NYCC! I'm not sure when any new MotU Statues would be revealed at this time.

Would love to see Jessica Jones in either her Netflix (Leather coat, jeans, dark hair, scarf) outfit or her Jewel (white, blue, pink hair, purple pink jewels) costume.
Thanks
Sideshow wouldn't tackle the TV versions of these characters (at least not at this time) but would veer toward comic based. Now as to whether any of those characters are in the pipeline...I just don't know at this time. Sorry.

Sidenote: Thought I'm looking forward to The Defenders and I'm more excited for a season 2 of Jessica Jones, season 3 of Daredevil and season 3 of Luke Cage. I never finished Iron First though...I'll have to get back to that one in the future!

Sorry but I do not know what characters are for future MotU characters at this time.

Huntress should start shipping in September as a final production sample was received earlier this week. I haven't seen a final Carnage production sample yet but that one is still expected to ship sometime between September and November of this year.

I know the collar, some of the paint, and cape flow were all being looked at for tweaking. What will actually be done and how it will turn out is unknown to me at this time. I won't know the final look for that piece until it's presented as totally finished.

Thanks
Demithyle is definitely larger in scale and though one can display him with the other PF characters he's not part of the PF line but the Legendary Scale line. Will he have a PF made in the future? I just don't know.

There are no plans for Sideshow to do TV versions of any Inhuman characters at this time. If any of these characters are made they would be comic based. Hopefully we'll make some of those characters in the future though!

This I don't know as of right now. A green light as to what we'll be selling of Iron Studios pieces happens right before or sometime after they've placed their items up for order.

Thank you for the birthday wishes! The New Leia PF COULD be revealed before the end of this year but it's also possible it won't be until the first half of 2018.

No Phantasm collectibles from Sideshow at this time are being planned and there's currently now movement of Sideshow trying to acquire the license.

As for future Jason PFs....I just don't know what is or is not in the works for that property. The recent sixth scale and PF are the only ones I'm aware of at this time.

WoW! Thank you so much for answering so many questions!

Just one more though, is the Skeletor collector edition going to ship soon? The website mentions August 2017 and i have seen many for sale on ebay, yet it's still not shipping from Sideshow...

Thanks again!

Alex... S2. Thanks for all the answers. Just a few more quick question. What is the meaning to life?

How does superman shave?

And how long is a subway foot long really?

Thanks in advanced!

Hi Alex,

Since Red Sonja has been a popular character for Sideshow, any plan for a Red Sonja Life size bust or Legendary Scale Figure in the future?

Thanks

Hi Alex, what are odd's of Sideshow Girl happening?
She would look great sporting a black Sideshow T-shirt.



The ideal pose would be sitting down, with both arms spread out in an animated fashion,
implying the reviewing of a statue. Technically speaking, only the upper half of the statue
is required, as her legs would be hidden by a desk, thus the cost could be halved.

As a sideline, 1/16 statues could be sold separately to positioned on the desk.
