Hey Daniel, can you elaborate on this announcement?

Using high grade PVC we are translating the most iconic characters in entire Star Wars and Marvel universes into dynamic and affordable mass-market display pieces.
Is this a new line of MBs or is GG changing the existing MB lines to PVC? I sure hope you’re not. This will not go over well if that’s the case.

I get the impression Gentle Giant are involved with Infinity Wars. Are there plans on a 1/4 scale Black Widow, as Gentle Giant in the past made possibly the best Black Widow 1/4 of them all

This announcement/product line is a separate division making product for mass market release.

It does not change our high-end Gentle Giant LTd business. That will continue to be resin, poly-stone, etc.

We do not currently have any 1:4 scale Marvel items to announce.

She is still in the works. I literally saw one of the design guys working on parts of her 2 days ago. She's a complex piece so we want to get her right. When she is ready we will solicit her.

Can you guys please for the love of the hobby, go back to your horror animaquette line? Would love some Chucky, Trick R Treat Sam, Meyers, all the classic iconic monsters in this style. I love the originality to these pieces.

These were what got me into statue collecting, and would love some more of these!

Just wanted to follow up on Fireball. Has there been any changes in terms of releasing her? I've been looking forward to pairing her with Derby for the longest time.
