Wow!!! Greg...be sure to congratulate your product development teams on that Voldemort...I know its just a sketchy early image but wowowow...I could not be more impressed. If you churn out an Umbridge this year too I swear I will just implode from all this awesomeness hahaha. She would make a wonderful SDCC exclusive don't you think mwoohahaha

Hey Greg,

the new PG gifts look great. Seems the choices get better and better each year. Nice variety of options.

Question about the Republic Commando with light-up visor though. Will this be a new sculpt or a variation on one of the 4 existing Commandos? Looks like Scorch to me.

Also psyched to see you guys doing Hobbit MBs. Since the cat is now out of the bag so to speak can you elaborate on whether this will lead to more LOTR MBs? Specifically the 2 unfinished busts I mentioned in my previous post?

Thanks.

After Wolverine is released, are there plans for more X-Men bust? If so, can we see WIP pics?

Thanks,

SL

I couldn't find the answer anywhere on the GG site so thought I'd ask here. Any idea on the release date of the Black Cat bust? Thanks in advance.

He's been pushed back to Q2 in light of everything coming out this month and next.

I'll post pics of the Republic Commando mini bust as soon as Lucas gives me the thumbs up. Until then, I can't comment on it further than what's already been said.

As for The Hobbit, WB won't give us approval to say anything beyond the little information we've released so far.

Lastly, the LotR and The Hobbit are two separate licenses. The two busts you're referring to are a part of the LotR license.

Yes and no, or rather, "yes and not yet." I'll see what I can do about sharing some WIP pics. Need to get the thumbs up from Marvel first.

According to my list, she's a late Q2 release now. She got reshuffled around like Wolverine to accommodate the influx of stuff coming out Q1.

Has the full scale Star Wars Death Trooper / zombie stormtrooper been cancelled?

Greg, can you provide us with an update on Sweet Pea?

[joy_division]

Can't remember where but I saw a Deathtrooper statue displayed at a con or toyfair. When will this be released?
