Are there any plans for a Batman Begins or Batman Returns Batman pf?

[Squizzy614]

Is there any talk of expanding on the new 1/5 TMNT line?? Pleeeeeease...

[Jayfoghorn]

Bane will more than likely carry a hefty price tag due to size, complexity and mixed media elements. As for Venom and Carnage, those should fall under the $700 price tag.

Thanks for the answer!!!
But I don't see much complexity in bane
Seems gladiator hulk status, maybe I'm wrong but doubt it has 100 parts to it

As of now I'm unaware of the line continuing beyond the 4 turtles. Could that change? Sure! But for now the line is just the 4.

The regular edition of Sabretooth is available not the site here: Regular Sabretooth People just won't be able to find him on the site through regular search while the exclusive is still available for order.

The latest info I have about this piece is that it's estimated to ship between December and January.

This I really do not know. I only know that a Superman collectible from that film is not being planned.

Sorry, I still haven't heard any news about trying to acquire the Blade Runner license.

Complexity isn't always about the amount of pieces an item has when it's broken down. Some pieces will have more paint complexity, non-sculpted element complexity such as fabrics, metal elements, light-up functions, etc.

Hello,


Is there a number of Never before see statues we should expect to be revealed during this December event?

12 Days will be a mix of sixth scale and non-sixth scale, so with everything that we're trying to showcase during the event...13 pieces are a possibility to be shown off. That number could fluctuate as we approach the event of course (sometimes items have to be dropped and/or added in last minute).

Thank u SSAlex... But we def need more TMNT... Please please please

Once again thanks. In behalf if paint complexity shouldn't the pices be priced when production pieces come out as we've seen with red Sonja pics the paint is not the same it's not bad just whenst from a A+ to a B-
Thanks

All costing is locked in at the time right before the piece starts production by the factories...not after a piece is fully finished with it's production run.

Again thanks
Don't want to seem like a nag just want to make sure the money I spend is appropriate. I don't expect 100% pro type as that will never happen but as close as possible.
I do plan on ordering bane as his one of my favs just don't want to be disappointed like some of the other SS pieces.
