30-60 days depending on boat and customs.

Actually pulled it out of storage a couple of months ago. I have some ideas in mind for the set in 2021. Hopefully it works. All I can share for now.

Specifically:

1:4 MM line - Will this continue? This is my preferred line, and you've commented about factory availability and reluctance to accept MM projects. Of course I'd like it to continue as is for as long as possible, but if that is a diminishing likelihood, would something like Tactical Guile work? i.e. Reducing the amount of MM per piece? Maybe just a MM accessory to qualify (e.g. Gen - sculpted robe, with only a MM sash?), but still mostly sculpted museum/fighting stance poses?

1:1 Life size busts - Is this discontinued?

1:6 V-Trigger - Is this discontinued?

Thanks

Yes, continuing the lines you mentioned in your first paragraph. And yes we will be continuing the 1:4 MM line. I gave it a break because the market was over saturated with SF MM. Also we shifted focus to clean up and getting all the old late products out to collectors. I have some ideas to get less popular characters out as well (ie Hugo) for 2021 kinda like the idea I had with Tactical Guile we did. Plus we have more Ultimates to do.

1:1 line not dead. We have one on the schedule for 2021. I’m going to attempt to sculpt it, but I’m leaving enough time in the schedule that if I don’t like what I made I can hire someone else to do it from scratch.

1:6 v-trigger line DOA. But, I have something HUGE in mind for 1:6. Still negotiating, but if I can close this deal then get your wallet ready!

You guys can only do 1/3 Marvel statues?

THANK YOU! That is great news on all fronts, especially the 1:4 MM line.

Thank you for the reply. I really appreciate you interacting here.

Is there a way to re-use Laura's and Karin's current sculpts for the MM line?

R.Mika going on preorder soon seems to have a variant in her regular costume: is there a chance for it to be MM with the standard black base?

Thanks

Those poses don’t really work for MM. Especially Laura’s. But, still something we can consider for the future.
