Don't care much for this line. But I definitely cannot deny the popularity of this South Korean group.

Likely toys of some sort. It’s probably a good business move by Sideshow because they are one of the most popular acts on the planet. Probably won’t be as coveted as the original Travis Scott action figure but a good move.

Who cares? Probably not most of us who dwell here and that’s fine. Sideshow has been about all kinds of collectibles for a while now. They aren’t just a statue company anymore.

Now, where TF is my Storm?

tbh with how popular BTS is, this is a literal cash cow for sideshow. "Army" or the fans will buy anything BTS related, no matter what, especially if there is some sort of exclusive photocard that can only be obtained from buying these.. i'd assume statues?

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Well, this forum is not the intended market for these but for Kpop fans. They will literally buy almost any collectible of their idol groups. The Sideshow Fine Art Print of BTS already received a very positive response among them in social media.

My wife is a fervent BTS fanatic so seeing this announcement was like worlds colliding in my household. Interested to see what they do with this - I can't think of any other line like this that Sideshow has done. Is there any scale precedent for "Deluxe Statue"? I'd imagine they're not 1/4th if they're doing all 7 of them. And of course... Sideshow's issues with likenesses could be a problem here.

I know this probably won't garner much interest on the board, but it's kind of hard to overstate how big of a score this license actually is for Sideshow - the social media engagement on the post announcing this line is orders of magnitude higher than pretty much every announcement they've ever made. If you're not interested in the statues themselves you might be interested in where this could take Sideshow as a company - this announcement puts them in an unprecedented spotlight for a collectibles company like them. Very curious to see where it goes from here.
