There's no downside for Tweeter of collectors with this new announcement.
Thanks to social media, there are a bunch of very loud people that do say this very thing, though. How much of a minority they are remains to be seen.

Yes! Given George's dire health issues, releasing Deathstroke before he passes would be a nice tip of the cap to a LEGEND in the comic industry.

I have no doubt they are the minority. Social media is dominated by the loud few that are malcontents in life with nothing better to do than to complain loudly to anyone who'll listen. Their mentality and culture is rooted in one philosophy...."victims, aren't we all "?

Well based on the numbers that are posted on the Tweeterhead Master list it does appear that Tweeterhead sales are up significantly. With sales increasing I think that there would be a greater chance of some lower tier characters getting made.

and I do echo FJC and Demona's comments about George Perez. Let's see Deathstroke and the rest of the New Teen Titans line up. (Now the discussion would come up for Nightwing, should it be current costume or disco collar costume? Hmmmm)

I started collecting Tweeterhead because I wanted to have a Teen Titans collection. Donna, Dick and Kori were my first pieces from Tweeterhead. So yea ...would love to see the rest of the Teen Titans.

I really hope this is ONLY distribution and that Sideshow has zero part of the creative process, the character selection, etc. I wouldn't want TH to fall into the trap of releasing the same 8 characters over and over or start releasing pieces with googly eyes.

I doubt Sideshow would have any influence with the 1/6 pieces, but would certainly have influence over which get the 1/4 scale treatment, as it's their license.

If they’re smart they’ll do Supes and Bats in 1/4 scale as well.

I'm already in on the 1/6 line so I really don't care about the 1/4.
