I don't get it. CS Moore is excellent, the ARH is awesome. No need for another one and I can't imagine it will sell gangbusters. Why not do Silver Warrior, or if that is too large even the Brain or any other iconic painting with just one or two characters that hasn't been done yet? Even a 1/4 scale Dark Kingdom would be cool.

Looks cool, but it’s just not needed at another 1/4 scale, seems very unethical to me for any of the Frazetta’s to release another one at that scale, people took a huge chance back then at $800.00 for a collectable statue, we were thinking that this was our one shot at getting Frazetta’s Barbarian in 1/4 scale.

Now they say it’s different because they got Conan properties to sign off on it, so that’s probably why it’s gonna be even more expensive than the ARH one, due to the Conan and Frazetta licensing fee.

I think it will definitely affect the resale value of our statue, making Frazetta’s Barbarian in 1/4 scale that much less rare even if it’s a different sculpt, don’t think Frank and Ellie would screw us this way.

The question is what did Kabuki Studios mean with extras?
Someone did an order on Kickstarter.com?

[TNovak]

Usually Kabuki makes really small stuff. 1/50 scale. 35 MM which is about an inch tall. They have a DDII at that scale and also a DD on a horse that I think is like 3" tall? Too small for me but fits with those historical military miniatures if a person collected those. I have seen a REALLY nice set up at 'Nuff's house in TX with armies of civil war guys but not something I would get.

Yeah! The only way to enjoy those miniatures is with a magnifying glass, not my cup of tea.

I asked about it in the "Ask Kotobukiya" thread and it sounds like it isn't a go at this point. Here is there response to me

Also, not Frazetta but I just layed my hands on a Zotz Joan of Arc and had it sent to the talented Annya Shetinina for painting. It is based on a Chinchoni paintig. Can't wait to see the results!

Not sure I love the kobituki 1/4 Barbarian, which may not be a go anyway

Hey Darrin are you getting Kotobukiya mixed up with kabuki, was unaware about Kotobukiya and a Frazetta license.

Probably
