I hope to see Angel, Kunimitsu, Zafina, & Unknown along with Michelle all come out eventually.

It makes it hard for me to see a lot of their faces if they are at eye level.

Agreed.
This is especially annoying given the original artwork by Shunya Yamash1ta has them in poses with a level gaze, looking aside or even slightly up in some cases.

Yeah, I noticed that on the Wonder Woman Statue.
Though the sculpt turned out well, I prefer how her head is angled on Shunya's art.

...sorry if it's not a question ~_~;

Agreed I have to display them higher than my other collectibles just to see their pretty faces

Will you be continuing the X-Men DRS & X-Force? Would love to have Storm (Jim Lee white version), and Domino. I'm sure they will be very much welcomed additions.

I wanted to take a moment to discuss what’s going on with the Marvel Fine Art series. I can confirm that Kotobukiya is supporting this line 100%, Erick Sosa is still overseeing sculpting duty and we’ll have at least 1 new character to unveil during SDCC. Rogue will be solicited soon, within the next month or so.

So this leads us to the question of why the delay and no-show of new product during NYTF? This was due to the necessity of rescheduling some characters around at the request of Marvel. We are now working closely with them to shape the line for the remainder of 2015 and into 2016.

What we need now is your wish list of characters you would like to see added to the Fine Art line (and ideally those of the non-mutant variety).

Thank you for taking the time to give us an update on the Marvel Fine Art line, gonk. I really appreciate it.

Would you like us to post our wishlists in a separate thread?

Yes, that would be most helpful!

Sounds like The Mouse is trying to bury the XMen franchise since they don't hold the movie rights ala FF4
