I don't mind glass bases. Sure really cool painted bases are good, but sometimes I get the impression they (various companies) feel the need to design a base, when ideas are running thin.

A poll from a Rep here would be pretty cool. Most are done for fun with no real bearing on what gets made. Having one that carries some weight would not only be fun but a nice change of pace.

Thanks for the heads up ! I'll talk with the production crew and see what pieces or "ideas" they want to poll.

Some collectors love them, some hate em. Wish we could make everyone happy at the same time.
We are currently doing more "environment" style bases for our 9" line .

Will I receive my Derby in 2016 ?
Failing that, can I buy the preview statue?

On a side note, what happens to the preview statues?

No, they will not come with clear bases . The environment bases will be attached to the statues .

I hope so ! I really want that piece. Its definitely on the "to-do" list for the production team. The prototypes are done. The molding and casting is done. The production is near completion. We are getting QC updates this month. Hopefully they release this quarter .

The "preview" statues or paint masters stay here at the office.

Yes there are. We have a couple planned for the new "Classic" line that we have been releasing through Gamestop. Not sure if they will be exclusive to gamestop yet . We do have some cool ones being concepted right now though.
