What are the next plan(s) for the 1966 Classic Batman TV PF line? Thanks!

Hello Alex,

When can we expect the "re-reveal" of the Magneto Premium Format after its modifications/alterations are completed?

Thanks in advance! Much love!

Hi Alex,

Any plans for future Terminator releases?

I'm hoping they will give us a little breathing space between pre-orders of them both.

Sorry, I don't have any info about upcoming Prime 1 solicitations. We typically are told about them the day they launch them on their end and rarely sooner than that.

Thanks for answering all the questions Alex. Can't wait to see sideshow's new Gambit!

It's the average right? I'd think most are ok with it. ;-)

Do you know if they will paint the buttons on the chest in the final product?
The original Darth vader has them painted.

Thanks!

The chest box as you see it in the solicitation photos is how it will be painted in the final product that will ship to customers.

Also, do you know if she will get her own Art Print to go with the Statue?
Saw the sneak peak and pics of her from SDCC and she looks amazing, the base looks so incredible. Really excited about this one!
Thanks

Batwoman should be up for Pre-Order within the next couple of months.

There could be an art print of Batwoman in the future too!

As of right now, the only Lex Luthor offering will be the one that is up for Pre-Order on our site.

I would LOVE a Pennywise Premium Format Figure (either new movie or previous made for TV version). Sideshow doesn't have the license to make either though, so there are no plans on one at this time.

Sorry, but I do now know.

Thanks for your time.

Sometime before the end of this year is the expected Pre-Order for the Classic Evil-Lyn statue.

The plan is that her armor will be getting a layer of chrome plating.

The current plan is for one new and one re-imagined COTD PF to Pre-Order before the end of the year.

I just purchased my first Sideshow item (Captain Marvel premium form) however, the gold paint is chipped a bit on her chest piece. I was wondering if anyone knows of what color and type of paint that I can use to touch it up?

Have you reached out to our Customer Service department regarding your question? They should be able to help you! :-)

My Trooper collection needs some Red!!
As always, thanks for your time & answers.

I haven't heard about any upcoming 'The Last Jedi' PFs at this point. Sorry.

The Batman and Catwoman pieces are all that's expected to exist in the Sideshow 1966 Batman TV PF Line. I really wanted a Batgirl though!

It MIGHT be at NYCC showcasing the changes. But if it doesn't make it in time then it should be shown again sometime before the end of the year. *crosses fingers*

There might be some Terminator goodness in the future.

P1 DKR; Kinda yes, when is it going to arrive in the US? Overseas started getting him a month ago...

[NorthernLadMSP]

Alex, I have a question I was hoping you could explain.

There's been some discussion lately on why Sideshow is now reverting back the old practice where you used to occasionally charge more for the EX over the regular (now called Collector). Do you have any specific insight on this?

Looks like more than likely it will start shipping from Sideshow in October (POSSIBLY end of September depending when it lands in the U.S.).

Prime 1 typically starts getting all their pieces out to their areas about a month or so ahead of Sideshow getting our stock.

The only information that was passed along to me was that this old pricing model was going to go back into effect for most pieces. This started being putting into play several months ago.

Is the Wolverine pf painted yet? Will the Swamp Thing maquette go up for order this year?
