Alex, I'm interested in the progress of the Legendary scale line. Would you say that this a backburner sort of line due to the cost of the pieces? The legendary scale line was my introduction to Sideshow and I've bought every piece. I would love to see more. When the line was introduced at comic con 4 years ago, there were so many pieces in that scale, and it was the most impressive part of the con. I really expected the line to take off with several new additions every year. I hope that SS continues to develop it considering how quickly that Prime 1 EX Batman sold out for a grand a pop. The Indiana Jones and Catwoman LSF pieces dissappeared quickly without any real word of what happened, and with how long Obi took, and now Vader, it seems this line is surrounded by a lot of red tape and mystery. Sorry for the long post but I'm just so facinated by this line's production history. Thanks!

Hello,

Is there any updates on the Ironman mk3 or mk7 pieces? (Or anything iron man really?

Also, is there an update on when we might get the next shipment of Green Hulk Premium formats? Or is it still in a "October" window.

Thank you so much!

Hi Alex,
What's with the different colour head to the rest of the body. Is this something that's going to get fixed?

hurry up already.

Besides Green Goblin there is one other Spidey piece (that I'm aware of) in the works. There might be more coming in the future but for now I'm only aware of those two other pieces.

We no longer hold the James Bond license so no future pieces are expected at this time.

That one is still on track for Feb 2016 (and could even deliver a little earlier then that). Photos of a sample were just taken earlier this week and should be released to customers that Pre-Ordered it in the next few weeks and then the site will be updated shortly after that.

More LSFs are in the works. They will be fewer in nature then the PFs, Statues, etc. that we release but they will exist. The new Iron Man Mark 43 LSF should be going up for Pre-Order very soon and 2016 should hopefully have some reveals of some new ones (one previously revealed through tease and some more that haven't been teased/revealed in the past).

I really don't know what the status is of the Mk 2 and Mk7 pieces. They aren't on my radar at the moment which typically means they have either been pushed way back or may have even been abandoned.

We do have the Mark 43 LSF coming up for Pre-Order soon.

In regards to Incredible Hulk...one batch came in and is now being shipping out. Another batch is due to land in port next week, so those would begin processing and shipping out in October (barring any issue: like another port strike, major backup at the ports, and so on).

The body was sculpted with more texture into it and the portraits were sculpted with more smooth lines and as such when viewing the piece from certain angles the difference will be noticed. This is not something that will be changed on the piece.

Thanks! Any reason why they decided to do that and not just have it all the same?

Sorry I've never been told why it was decided to leave it as is. I know that one artist worked on the body and the heads were done by another artist.

I don't believe Death's Siren will have a delay. We're coming over the finish line with that one. As for Deathwing...I haven't seen a final shipping sample come in for that item yet (but it's still a tad early for that at this point). So far that piece is still expected to ship within it's estimated time frame but that could always change.
