Hey guys!

Thanks for all of the support! I already feel welcome in this community.

So here are replies to a few of your questions from yesterday!

TL;DR Sorry I can't reveal too much to you guys quite yet.

There is no talk about our DC BISHOUJO lines stopping at Catwoman! So if you have requests, feel free to keep letting us know on our social media accounts or directly to us at events we visit so we can tell our higher-ups.

The guardians of the galaxy & Fantastic 4 would be amazing additions to the sets!

We plan to continue creating more Marvel ARTFX+ down the line as well!
Duly noted about Guardians of the Galaxy and Fantastic 4. I know at lot of us in the international department love Guardians of the Galaxy too, and has so many characters that would be good in various merchandise forms (imagine Groot and Rocket Raccoon as Pitanuis)!

There are currently no products confirmed in this line after Rogue & Gambit. Note: none confirmed (there may be more down the line, but nothing set in stone)

Sadly, there is no talks about this at the moment.

I'd also like to see more swappable parts in the Marvel line, akin to the Star Wars line.

Finally, I'm very disappointed with the higher price points of some of the new ArtFX+ statues.

To be honest, re-issues are quite difficult with some companies like with the Star Wars line (similar issue with Pokemon like my previous post). The more you fans demand for a re-issue, though, the more we can try to convince the higher-ups to approve our reproduction request.

Swappable parts in the Marvel line is something we are slowly working on!

Thank you for your final point about our prices. Pricing is a hard issue because each country has different standards for high-end statue prices, higher quality factories cost us more money, etc. But PLEASE keep telling us about your thoughts on pricing as well as what price point you would want to see! The more input we get, the more we are able to coordinate with our logistics department too throughout the production process!

Alright, that's all for today! I will probably not be able to respond to posts everyday, but when questions start piling up, I will be sure to respond like today.

Once again, thanks for all of your interest in our products!

Glad Koto is back on the forum.
Any plans for ArtFX+ DC characters? Marvel ArtFX+? Star Wars ArtFX+ prequel characters? More X-Men '92? Marvel Fine Art? ArtFX Aquaman?

You guys gotta make Cheetah. It'll sell like hot cakes if it comes out around Wonder Woman 1984.

Would love to see a new spider-man artfx+ line with the sinister six. Any chance of making that happen? :-)

[hunnipot85]

Hi Koto, couple questions. It's nice to have the companys presence back.

- Will Ikemen continue after the Bat boy family? Any chance we'll see other licenses in Ikemen? (Marvel, GI JOE, etc?)

- Any idea when we will get to see sculpts for the GI JOE Bishoujos?

- Is there anyway we will get a Jean Grey in the X-men 92 line? (Not in Phoenix form, in her original yellow/blue outfit)

- Any plans to do more Animated Series Art fx figures? (for instance Spiderman TAS)

Thank you for your time. xx

Will the Sentinel base displayed with the ARTFX X-Men be available for sale?

Would love to have it.
