I was thinking about it some more, and what could they release from TP with 1/4th scale/pricing that would actually sell?

Zant, Ganon (this would have to be enormous though), Link, Zelda, maybe one of the two forms of Midna? I'd love a Goron as well, but I don't see that happening either.

Edit : Here's updated info about the Zelda stuff. Posted it on my whatsyourobsession site too.

"1) Zant is the first in our TP line. He’s 1/4 scale, which means he is 21 inches tall from the top of his helmet to the bottom. He comes with real cloth as well. Our TP line will all be 1/4 scale.
2) There are 2 versions of him – the regular version which is the regular helmet with a detachable tongue which reveals the mouth behind it. The exclusive version will be only available from first4figures.com and will come with a change-o-head where he is unmasked.
3) These will be MUCH more limited than our previous LoZ statues.
4) This is a new line, so that means new low numbers to be given on a first come first served basis and as usual, collectors
can keep that same number for the rest in the series."

Preorders on Zant start tomorrow apparently.

They're also making a Wolf Link/Midna and a Ganondorf (not sure if this is 1/4th scale, or in scale with the previous Zelda statues).

After F4F dumped the Ryu Hayabusa statue (their first 1/4 project) and let One2One take over, I've pretty much lost faith in them as far as 1/4 scale goes. Ryu's prototype pictures were stunning, yet One2One's "workmanship" has turned Ryu into a steaming pile of poo.

F4F still hasn't proven anything in the 1/4 realm, but I'm a big fan of Ocarina-style Zelda, so I'll keep my eyes peeled.

THat is a reflection on One2One, not F4F. F4F made the fabulous prototype and then handed it across to One2One at which point it had nother else to do with F4F. I have faith in F4F

I do want them to succeed in their new 1/4 line, but I am very skeptical at this point: Ninja Gaiden is hugely popular, so why burn all those who pre-ordered and let One2One ruin the piece?

Good luck to them, but I'm still bitter about the experience. F4F has much to prove as far as I'm concerned.
