I nor Sideshow will be responsible should some kind of breakage/damage occur during an attempt to futz with an item (ie: Ironing it, steaming it, etc.), so please use extreme caution when attempting to futz a collectible in any way.

For the coat....do not put an iron or steam to any parts of the inside of the coat. The lining for the inside of the coat simply cannot be ironed or steamed. For the outside you should position the piece so the area in question that needs to be ironed is as flat as possible on an ironing board, put some kind of heavier cloth (like part of a white heavier t-shirt without any kind of already silkscreened/iron on artwork...should be a totally blank piece of cloth) over the area to be ironed and iron over the heavier T-shirt cloth that the coat would be lying under.

Thanks.
This is being looked into and the site should be updated shortly with updated specs.

I believe the regular edition will more than likely be available to authorized SS dealers that wish to carry it.

I love the Howard the Duck movie. Honestly...not kidding. It's super cheesy in every way but it's one of my guilty pleasure movies.

Hey Alex! Just got my newsletter and saw the giveaway for Savage Oppress! However, the link takes us to the original preview page with no way to enter the contest. Can you check to see what the problem is? Thanks!

Thanks! Are there new pics of him, or is it the same one from the first sneak? The newsletter made it sound like we would be getting a full reveal!

I'm not saying someone should go out and start any kinds of those types of campaigns but more so throwing out the idea if that's even something fans/collectors would even get behind for more niche-like projects.
Now if someone were to do that and maybe one for an Ahsoka Tano PF and a Game of Thrones PF line (lol), how would one go about doing that?
