Question How about 1/4 scale John Carpenter's THE THING statues next?

Considering that you have the license, is the door still open for 1/4 scale The Thing collectibles or even 1:1 Norris Spider?
Who would be in for that?

We needed a 1/4 scale McReady Statue, not this silly 1:6 figure

I guess the problem with the Thing is that visually the creature has no recogniseable form and personally I wouldn't buy a statue of MacReady. I do like Paul Komoda's work in the prequel, if I could get something that represented the morphing/fusing of DNA but represented the Carpenter film I'd definitely purchase it.

I'm down. Would love to see the Dog Kennel Thing or even the very first revealed Thawing Thing recovered from the Norwegian camp!

Great movie but only thing I would be interested in is a 1/6 scale Mcready. There are some movies and tv shows I really enjoyed but not interested in collectibles from them and this is one of them.

The Thing is one my fave movies ever. I'd buy a MacReady statue, as long as the head sculpt were Blitzway-level quality - or like PCS' own Conan, for that matter.
