Hey Cali604, yes it's a cool idea but the costs are rather prohibitive, especially in terms of creating a larger box to accommodate the extra bust. Instead, we are focusing more on the base or switch out parts. We did think about a simple non bust, head sculpt stand which is more space efficient and allows collectors to display the alternate heads but because all heads have different sizes (hair etc) this requires more engineering. Will continue to try things out and post updates.

Hi MuppetMad, we would love bendable and are testing the possibilities at the moment with the engineering team. But our priority is to ensure the material is durable and not vulnerable to wear and tear/cracks over time while keeping close to art & design. Once I get any news on this, I'll post it.

Yeah there are a couple of events, the next one is Macau over Xmas (24th to 27th Dec 2015) plus I'm getting married this Sat (tomorrow!) so that hasn't helped!

Also don't forget that XM said awhile back that they won't be able to be so forthcoming with updates like they were in the past, I believe that was one of the stipulations with Marvel/Disney license.
So I doubt anyone really knows how far along they are with any of the announced pieces....

Yup... certain stuff we can't be as cowboys as we want to. Gotta play by the rules. The New Capt shown is a 3D image not printed yet and has been developing long time back.
