Isn't Sideshow's edition- size for Skeletor much greater than He-Man? Of all the characters in the franchise, I feel he's the most popular.

And when Sideshow's Skeletor was announced a lot of people saying they didn't care for the direction they had gone and wanted something more traditional.

I can't see a lot of people turning out for Panthor, but a more classically-styled Skeletor than what Sideshow is offering? I think there is definitely a market for that.

But I respect that PCS can't make business decisions based on what I think.

Full disclosure: I have pre-ordered Sideshow's, but I was definitely going to get PCS's Skeletor as well (Panthor I only would have bought if I could only get Skeletor in a set). And I'd pay more than what PCS are asking for He-Man.

I completely agree with all you say, you've basically done the same as me. I have the PCS He-Man and the SS version along with Skeletor on pre-order. I'd have definitely bought a PCS Skeletor. Would loved to have seen how the PCS one was going to turn out.

No skeletor and panthor?no skeletor mixed only?no 1:3?
And no clasic line?

I liked you idea and I think the same.
Everybody here knows Jerry will make an absolutely awesome statue.
Just a drawing will be enough and if there is enough pre orders let's go MER-MAN !!!

Maybe after Mer-Man we can get a drawing of Stinkor, exclusive version will be the stinky Stinkor with the same smell as the toy.

Please dont stop on mixed media Skeletor because SS is a factor.

If he can't get enough orders with a finished pair of statues, what hope does a drawing have?

That's exactly what some of them are thinking too.
That would be best chance to see skelethor panthor AND Mer-man

The hope is that Skeletor has more appeal than He-Man, as evidenced by Sideshow's edition sizes for each character.

I recall one point PCS saying they dont like to start with the heavy hitters because then people just buy the first/big names and drop the rest.
Now look at us.
