Let me check with PD. I believe it's a Deluxe, but my memory's failing me right now. I should hear back by the end of the day.

Thank you! Yes, you will see more 18" & 1/4 scale from us in the near future.

No comment. That's not "no comment" like "yes, there's something on the horizon, but I can't tell you" or "no, but I don't want to break your heart." Please don't try to read in to my response because it's a flat-out "I'm sorry, but I can't answer that question."

Sorry to qualify it so much, but I've got the guys on Rebel Scum busting my chops over a "no comment" response I posted recently, and some of them are working themselves up into a frenzy because of their mistaken impression.

And can we expect this poses two statues ? (1/6 or 1/4 looks like sucker punch statues, )

I wouldn't expect anything more from us on the Avatar front.

I was hoping it will be a good series. Jack, Moat... It must be completed. We expect at least one Jake Sully bust. Please, this must not incomplete like the LOTR series.

Hey Rogue01

Can you pass on a suggestion for including instructions for holding/removing statues from packaging ?

Both Babydoll and Amber were pretty 'simple' with few fragile parts that could be damaged during removal. One could just pick them up at the most natural place, which for me was around the waist.

But when removing the Sweetpea statue from packaging I almost damaged the laces on the back when picking her up by her waist, but fortunately felt something was not right and managed to stop in time. On SP I found that the least harmful way was to hold the statue by her thighs.

Now with especially Blondie looking to be extremely intricate, it would be helpful with a simple instruction on how/where to pick up and hold the statue when unpacking and attaching base.

Just a thought

Hi how about some superfine detail 18 inch sculpts of star wars characters in the similar style sculpts like your 18 inch sucker punch line. I would love to see the 18 inch statues of:
Ventress
Darth maul
Vader
Maria jade
And many other full size characters
Any chance for those in your future?

We're pretty much done with our Matrix line. No comment on what you may see at SDCC yet. As Dr. River Song would shake her head and say, "Spoilers."

We've got a Han Solo Mynock Hunt Bust already in the works. It's a PGM exclusive.
