Besides there is the chance now of a J Scott Campbell Jungle Girl from Dynamite. Or even a Frank Cho version now that Dynamite is getting into statues. More options are always a good thing.
Dynamite already did a Frank Cho Jungle Girl statue. I have it, and with most Dynamite statues, it is poorly produced, and too pricey for the size. It's too bad Sideshow never pursued their plans for Frank Cho comiquettes. A Frank Cho Shanna at 1/5 scale (or larger) would have been awesome.

Production version did not come out this well.

I don't know if the plans have changed or not, but last I knew they expected to offer another convention pre-order buy in March. They'll have another booth at a con then (can't remember where- Seattle maybe?). I think after that is when the pre-orders on the website go up.
Production just started on the NYCC batch of statues.
It sounds like late summer as far as delivery for those- and then six months later for the next batches and I assume the general release versions.
I hope to have mine in hand in September, but because of my work schedule it may be late October...basically a full year after first ordering it.

Just as well I suppose. I need time to unload a bunch of other statutes to make room for what I expect will be another big ass box.

Have you ever imagined a world with no hypothetical situations?

Everyone should check out Will Harbottle's work. The guy created some grails. I can't wait to see what he does at Sideshow. If he hasn't sculpted something already that I'm not aware of. I usually don't like those artist profiles that Sideshow insists on making but his is one I look forward to seeing.

Apparently Kat Sapene also worked at Gentle Giant. Her name keeps popping up on tons of Sideshow projects.

I kind of remember this one. I don't know why I passed. If it wasn't good than it's probably good that I passed.

Post a review or pics when you get it. I was waiting on the normal version. ARH doesn't seem to have much interest over here anymore. Something happened a while back that I missed.

A conclusion is simply the place where you got tired of thinking.

Amazon seems to think this will be released at the end of the month. I have my doubts.

Amazon is less reliable than GG when it comes to release dates on statues

Worse than GG? That's quite a feat.
