Hopefully this year.

Realistically not until sometime next year. The items being offered now (like the Ash Bishoujo) will not arrive to retailers until fall 2018 and Aquaman is nowhere near being ready to solicit.

I've heard that is the case for the X-Men Animated Series (from a Koto rep in a youtube video) and I'm excited to see more (for both series).

For the Batman Animated Series I think it largely depends on how strong the numbers are for the Joker and Harley Quinn pre-order. If these two pieces do well I would not be surprised if more characters got added to this line.

What are future plans for DC Bishoujo line?

I'll request Big Barda, Jessica Cruz, Mera, and Jesse Quick.

Is the Full Metal Alchemist line still alive?

[Dark Knight.]

Hi Gonk,
I love the commitment to the Marvel ARTFX+ 1/10 lines like the Defenders, animated X-men, and a new wave of Avengers, but what about some new comic based 1/10 characters for DC? I'd love to add Hawkman, Martian Manhunter, Firestorm, Booster Gold, Justice League Dark, Teen Titans, more Lanterns, etc.

Some licensing deals (especially true with Japanese properties) focus on granting the rights to individual characters as opposed to the entire catalog of characters. With FMA I'm not certain what the licensing arrangement is but I'm not aware of any new products in the pipeline for this series. The same holds true for Tokyo Ghoul and Cowboy Bebop.

The short answer is that the DC Bishoujo line will continue to expand but as to what the next character is I can't divulge that. Hopefully by the time SDCC is here we'll be making that announcement.

I'd like to see Adam Hughes versions of Fire and Ice. Complete with the green jean jacket. And of course the blue/white costumed Zatanna.

I really hope the line see's the Martian Manhunter before it ends, I really don't care for the Tweeterhead version.
