Is there any plan on future release beyond the trinity? I am seriously considering jumping in, but if this line ends with WW then my interest is dwindling....

That's why collector's here in Brazil have to import itens 90% of the time. The other 10% is for those times we are low on money, so we buy something using payment plans (divide the price by X amount of times)

Let's say i want to buy Super for Tomorrow.

120$ + 50$ shiping = 170$

When i arrive it may receive + 60% taxes (to 2 out 3 times it is) on the total amount (170$) so...

170 + 60% = 272$.

And that's if we use USPS, Royal Mail etc. If the transport is made by UPS, FEDEX and etc, the taxes go to 120% and even 130% on some states.

And like i said, to buy from a store from here it will cost around 300~350$...

Very few brands are better to buy here than to import, like Bandai for exemple.

It's still better than paying $350+ for a Bowen piece or $800+ for a "cheap" Sideshow one.

Hope she can stand without the base. I have my Supes and Batman displayed without the base and love to display her the same way. With the pose it doesn't seem likely. Love the sculpt, not a big fan of the cape but do love the skirt.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

No matter the line, you can always be sure that Koto is going to sculpt some awesome hair. Looks fantastic so far. They even added the lasso in there as well.
