Hello Alex,

Do you know if the Bane PO preview will be up in the Sideshow Blog today?

There aren't any plans for Alien Covenant items at this time, so it would be from past movies from the franchise.

We saw one picture on Jyn Erso PF page with K2SO behind her.
Is this a hint for what to come?

Are there more rogue one PFs to come?

Thank you!

Good eye! Jon, K-2SO and Death Trooper Specialist are the only Premium Format Figures that I'm aware of at this time. But again, my future eye only sees so far.

I thought it looked good. I'm going to fully admit that I'm not the biggest of Blade Runner fans though. The first one is visually so so good but the story didn't really suck me in as much as I hoped it would. I found it a bit of a slog to get through. Sorry Blade Runner fans. :-(

Hey alex!
You said there are more 1/1 busts on the way, can you at least say under which license? (For example: marvel, dc...)

[Lecter83]

Hello Alex, I'm a fan of the Universal Monsters monsters and characters who over time have been movies made about them: Frankenstein, Dracula, The Mummy, The Invisible Man, etc ... With the launch of new movie THE MUMMY with Tom Cruise, you plan to do some Premium Format of these characters that I mentioned? For if there are hopes for the 12 days of Sideshow at Christmas time or later? Thanks so much.

Legendary Scale Vader, when will this go up for PO? i need this..lol

[BurningRage]

Will there be an unboxing video and production blog pics for Supergirl pf?

Why isn't translucent resin used on all faces of all products?

They should be making a more consistent comeback in the new year.

Marvel and Star Wars are all that I'm aware of currently. Maybe Court of the Dead in the future.

I love love love Universal monsters everything. Unfortunately Sideshow doesn't hold the rights to make anything from Universal, so there won't be anything come from past or future Universal items from Sideshow. I know I sure that changes someday. I've love revisits of Dracula, Frankenstein, etc.

I have no new news on this item. Maybe next year but I really don't know where it is as a fully finished piece at this time. It's still happening for sure just hasn't been 100% completed as an approved prototype yet.

Pictures should be up before the weekend and an unboxing video might be up sometime next week.

I'm only aware of the Oglavaeil and Xiall Legendary Scale Busts at this time.

It's a much more expensive to use and not all factories will utilize that material/technique in the items they produce. Where we can it will be used (like the recent Green Lantern Premium Format Figure).
