Hi Alex, any plans for a variant Supergirl PF?

Additionally, once a product has reached completion, what is the time frame of production from the factories in China(just curious).

Thank you!

I don't believe it should miss it's target unless the factory becomes incredibly delayed or samples come in that are unsatisfactory. I don't know what the full time frame is to go from start to finish (at the factory level), sorry.

Hi! We actually do not have any future Legend items planned at this times. I personally would love to see some more items from that property that even go beyond Darkness but I also know that there really isn't a big market out there for that film outside of Darkness pieces.

We actually have made Henson items in the past from The Muppets and Dark Crystal. The Muppets were busts and Dark Crystal were articulated figures. We no longer hold the license for any Henson properties at this time though and I don't believe we'd be making anything else at this time. Dark Crystal is one property that I wish was far more popular in the collectible world as I'd love to pick up some new nice statues and busts, etc (I have the Sideshow figures, a Neca piece and some of the Plan B busts and Mindstyle Vinyl items from a while ago among some other things here and there) but it doesn't really look like anyone is producing anything anymore sadly.

I know it was shot down awhile ago but wanted to double check.

Sorry, still no light-up feature. The licensor said no to it and as such it will not be included in that piece.

I haven't had a full review of this piece yet, so I do not know all that will be included with it at this time, sorry.

I haven't heard of a variant being considered for this piece.

Is Sideshow considering any Harley Quinn PF variants? Thank you for any information you can provide.

I'd like to know the same. Even though I am pretty sure Alex won't be able to tell us. I think a Harley variant would be awesome!

Hi Alex. I noticed that the Dr. Doom PF was on the coming soon list. However, it appears some people already received theirs as pics of this piece were already posted on July 4th. May I ask how this happens? If the objective is to send pieces earlier in order to have others review it, may I ask how can I get on this list? I review pieces all the time. Thanks!

Hi Alex,

Any updates on the modern Thor release or when we'll at least see a production shot?

Thanks!

Hi Alex,
This year we did not see any DC or Marvel (comic) life size busts in SDCC
Do you you know if there is a plan to release a new one this year

So Sideshow is never releasing a Supergirl variant. Thanks for the info, Alex!

Hi Alex,

How about some Jim Lee inspired 90's X-Men 1:4 scale statues? Can we get some made?

[lbsjshon]

you must be sick of this question but i wondered what the situation is with any middle earth characters. Should i give up on the prospect of more.
