5 Statues Sideshow Would Be Able To Make A Lot Of Money On

Of course this is just opinion, but I think these five statues have a large enough fan base and are cool enough characters that they would be big hits with collectors.

1) Red Monika (Battle Chasers) - Wildstorm/Image
2) Taskmaster - Marvel
3) Mister Mxyzptlk - DC
4) Saint of Killers - DC/Vertigo
5) Dawn - Linsner

C and z listers don't make money.

Been around long enough to realize, Sideshow wants people who are not into comic books and collectibles to be able to see their stuff and be grabbed by it.

Hence instantly recognizable characters OR

"HOT Chicks" you can make Danger girl, Red Sonja, Soulfire Grace(?!?!) or an Aspen that has an ES of 3000(?!!?) These have no mainstream awareness but ,ya know, "HOT Chicks," man.

I could definitely see Monika doing well. Not sure how rights work, but think Joe Mad would be on board in similar way Turner is having creations get Sideshow treatment.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Every single one of these listed is a niche character. As much as fans of those characters will love them if and when they're produced they aren't money makers for Sideshow. As others have said the money makers are Wolvie, Supes, Batman, Wonder Woman, Spidey, etc. It's those money makers that allow Sideshow to continue to produce the occasional B and C List characters like the ones you listed. I nonetheless really do hope you get each and every character that you want made. Cheers :-)
