Any news on Koto's SDCC Exclusives aside from the White Emma Frost statue?

Is there anyway we can get some info on what statues may be seeing another production run for Star Wars ARTFX+? I came into collecting these somewhat recently, and missed out on some great pieces like Genereal Grievous and the Clone Troopers.

Would love to know if they are going to get another production run because I really can't afford the eBay prices, especially on Grievous.

I check the KotoUS.com site almost daily to see if any of the prices are in stock hoping to get lucky...

Hi Koto!

I love all the ArtFX-J figures you've made of my favorite anime characters, but other than animes, I also love Disney.

Ever considered making ArtFX figures of Disney/Pixar characters?
I find the idea of Disney characters having a Kotobukiya treatment pretty interesting.

Any idea if the upcoming Alien: Covenent(Prometheus 2) be under the Alien license or if it won't.

Hi gonk,

I'm collecting the artfx+ x-men line and the choice of x-men is great (Wolverine, Cyclops and Rogue in particular).

I was just wondering if we're likely to see Storm released, as she is an iconic x-man and the one sorely missing from the set in my opinion! Maybe as an exclusive down the line...

Thanks a lot!

HI Koto,

Ok my question is not regarding any specific statue, I don't know where exactly to post this but I figured the Ask Kotobukiya thread might be the best place to start.

I come from a small country in South Asia and we don't really have access to Sideshow, Hot Toys, Kotobukiya, etc.. So whatever statues and other collectibles we own are either shipped with very expensive shipping costs or brought in with friends abroad.

How does one "Set up shop" in a sense, to become a Kotobukiya reseller in a country ? There is a noticeable demand for quality products but due to the unavailability which makes even the affordable statues quite high priced peopel are deterred from it.

Would appreciate someone pointing me in the right direction.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Gonk,

Will be getting many new reveals at SDCC for the DC and Marvel Bishoujo series?

Also, can we expect to see the painted prototypes for Lady Loki and Thor Bishoujos?

[moviemonster]

I'm hoping I haven't got an answer to this question because the answer is "YES". I tried Kotous.com, Facebook and here but nothing. Here we go. Do you think or already know if an Alien Queen will be made for the ArtFX+ line of Aliens?

Thank you,

[Pharmer]

What is the difference between a 1st production run and a 2nd production run (for example Peacekeeper Daisy Ani statue or SuperGirl Bishoujo)? How can we tell if the seller is selling 1st run, 2nd run or even a knock off/"Chinese" version (I thought they were all made in China????)?

Thanks!
