I don't know all of them but for sure these:

DD on a horse, Barbarian, Dark Kingdom, Cat Woman, Silver Warrior, Egyptian Queen, I'm not sure of the rest.

Even though Heidi has DD on a Horse, any of the siblings can merchandise off it. Holly I know has Dark Kingdom and Egyptian Queen, I saw them in person in Austin last year when she and Robert Rodriquez temporarily displayed them. Junior has Silver Warrior and Cat Woman.

On the other hand Jr has Atlantis and no other sibling could produce that one without his permission since he has rights to that and it isn't one of the 12 agreed joint rights.

At least that is my understanding but I am certainly not in the inner circle or anything.

I wonder who has the "Destroyer".and is that one of the twelve you mentioned.

I know for sure that ARH was authorized to do Destroyer and Warrior from Frank Jr. so they may be part of the twelve. ARH was planning on doing both in 1/6 scale which would still be monstrous considering all the elements of the paintings. I really hope Chronicle can get these done in 1/7 or 1/8 as they would be epic dios. I've been waiting for a Destroyer and Warrior dio forever and each time it looks like one is on the brink of getting done it has never come to fruition. A total disappointment for me.

Please no 1/4 scale. 1/4 is way too big. The only reason I did not get the ARH statues is that they are too large and tough to display. Smaller statues are you aside to display and collect.

And please do some Conan pieces.

I like the larger stuff, would be nice to see both. One epic large piece looks better to me than 4-5 smaller pieces.

I still want the pices to be large but smaller in scale for 2 reasons:
I want some environmental acoutrements
smaller scales work better in abstract.
A lot of Frazetta isn't sharply defined. When bringing that to the real world it doesn't work in huge scales.

1/4 scale please !

IMO Only time it should be smaller is for the massive pieces like when you have to fit in 4 polar bears and a chariot

I'm not sure. I think that painting was sold while Frank Sr was still alive and I know Conqueror (a/k/a Bezerker) was. I always wondered if you get the painting would you then have merchandising rights but either that is not the case generally or they (Frazettas) put it in their sale that they would keep the merchandising rights which I'm sure would be fine with Kurt Hemmit anyway.

As Wolfbrother mentioned, Destroyer was being considered by ARH at one time so I think it can be done. I also know that when C S Moore had the Frazetta license he was going to do 4 statues of which Destroyer was one and he went with Conqueror first which I thought at the time was a huge mistake. That is among the worst paintings to try to transfer to 3D Horse is in odd contortion and in mid air, really weird facial expression, without the surronding warriors to give context it just didn't look great as a statue.

When Moore had trouble selling the Conqueror they opted not to do the others, sadly. CS Moore did fantastic on the 1/7 Barbarian and Conqueror and 1/6 Mars Maid IMO and would have done a great Destroyer. I have high hopes for Chronicle as well.
