where is all the new pieces for the fine arts line that was suppose to come out this year? We should have started to see pics of what's coming.

No kidding. I thought we were supposed to get at least 2 a year. I could be wrong, but .....

Frustrating indeed. Gonk's been very quiet as well.

I think Sosa said six releases. I'm not sure he ever gave a number for DRS. Storm and Punisher makes 2...maybe there'll be some big announcements soon, but it's getting less likely that we'll see the rest this year. It's possible the contract is for 2019 and on...

With Sosa doing Semic and focussing on his own Prototype Z line, I thinks it's impossible to get Koto Fine Arts to up their releases per year. I think I heard Dan say at the last years SDCC that they wanted to have 4 realses per year which at the current rate would be impossible unless they get other artists to work on the Fine Art line also.

they said 6 fine art statues per year, probably 4 for koto and 2 for protoZ. looks like its not happening. i just hope they will finish the other xmen in the drs line like beast, jean, iceman or jubilee and classic avengers line like antman, scarlett witch, bucky or falcon. just got drs psylocke last month so please keep making them koto and we will keep them buying.

I wish they would because the asking prices for the older ones is just flat out silly.

The only fair priced ones are Rogue/Brown Wolverine because they're newer, Cyclops if you're patient, but once you start trying to nab Gambit, Colossus, and the others then you're talking 700-800$, sometimes more.

Spending that for 1/6 statues that are nice, but not that nice, is just a no go for me.

Yeah I cant believe what the asking price is for these 1/6 scale. They are more expensive than some 1/4 scales of the same character.

If koto is willing to re-release other lines, why not do them all. There is obviously still a market for these and they would make a profit off of it.

And why not re release with a different pose? I would think this would make the original collectors happy and the new ones have a chance to get gambit at a price close to reasonable. Honestly if you were thinking about paying the after market price for say gambit I would tell you buy the XM 1/4th that will be superior in every conceivable way.
