I think it's a bit refreshing, actually - it's been a bit of a bummer seeing Sideshow prioritize women ahead of fairly significant characters in some of their lines (e.g., Batman). Otherwise we might have seen a recreation of a certain scene involving Farnese with Guts's sword before we got a Griffith.
I think Berserk is a pretty heavy sausage-fest anyway. Besides the Griffith, Femto and human-form Zodd statues teased, I'm hoping we see a Casca (before the Eclipse), apostle-form Zodd, and Skull Knight. The prospective prices on the latter two scare me quite a bit; I'm hoping that Skull Knight with his horse comes in at ~$1,200, but I fear that he'll be closer to $1,500. Zodd I could see approaching $2,000 or something crazy, which I'd likely have to pass on.
EDIT: After looking at some Art of War pieces of the Skull Knight on his horse and getting a better sense of how much bigger the statue will be will the horse, I found my initial cost estimates were on the overly optimistic side. I hope this isn't the case and that they find a way to make something that isn't absolutely ridiculous... maybe if they keep the base simpler.
There is the Schierke that they're now working on, which will break things up a bit. I really hope the price tag on her is reasonable, given her diminutive size - I'm hoping for <$500, though something like $600 may be more likely; I'd be pretty turned off if it approached $700-800.
