I will third this motion. Even with mostly sculpt and little mixed media like Poison. The pants don't need to be mixed media but the tank and chain would be a nice touch.

Jerry please make it happen.

Also on a side note I really hope the July surprise is Dan related.

Print looks good!

I think a 1/4 would make a lot of people that bought poison really happy to have the pair to display.

I agree, most people would be content with fully sculpted, as long as it's 1/4. People that have invested in 1/4 from various companies and licenses over the years don't generally care about mixed media as long as it looks good.

I think 1/8 could be profitable for the new/casual collectors - but would they want Hugo?

I love the 1/8th line idea, because of Rose, but don't really want to commit to a new scale, ya know?

Exactly. Let's face it, this is a niche character. There is virtually NO target audience for this character. Frankly I'm surprised he's being considered in ANY scale.

But with 1/8 you're really missing the boat because you miss....

A) People who bought Poison.

B) 1/4 completionists who'll buy him to complete the line

C) The small group of us that have begged for a 1/4.


So who is this marketed towards? All of the 1/8 fans clamoring for Hugo?

Don't get me wrong, if you solicit this I hope it'll sell like hot cakes. But if I were a guessing person I'd say it's not going to move many units.

Furthermore Jerry had said "The First Hugo"? Does that mean a second is in the works down the road? Will the tiny group of Hugo fans come back for multiple statues of him? Unlikely.
