Lol "much sweatier". Isn't that the truth. I wonder if they would incorporate the sweat beads into the statue sculpt ha.

But yea I mean he could be a cool statue, if it is a more serious pose, but the outfit would look odd regardless I'd believe. Maybe this is a situation where SS needs to take some "liberties" with the costume to make it more compatible.

With everyone being so sensitive to the tiniest things these days, I highly doubt SS would make a Blob statue. Would be cool to see though.

Hell yeah. I always liked the character. Ever since I picked up the Marvel Fanfare issue when I was a kid with Hulk fighting The Blob. Cool issue.

Seeing the route they are taking it might be pretty likely they will do it, since it seems to be brotherhood vs x-men throughout what's being done in the line now. (ya ya i know they don't always finish lines)

Will it have a high ES ? Doubt it, probably be less than juggernaut, unless they do something like Blob with Toad. Even then i imagine it will still be one of the lower edition sizes.

I would think that making a Blob statue might be the opposite statement. Its not body shaming because Blob is wearing what he wants to wear. And he owns his look and powers.

If Sideshow ever actually intended to make an actual Brotherhood set, they would need to do Blob, Toad, and Pyro. As we know they will never actually do that, we will never see those three characters. It's like asking for a Beast, Archangel, Jubilee, and Bishop. Falls on deaf ears.

Unfortunately, unless Marvel or Diamond would produce some of those characters and with Bowen not being around, I do not think we will see these characters done. It would be cool to see some of the lower tier characters being done like what Tweeterhead is doing with the Super Powers line.

Hey, I hope they do make him. That would look cool and be another example of SS stepping up their game. But it would be a statue of a morbidly obese person who’s named “Blob”.

Ok, i guess we will just join you and just cry about it then in frustration cause they are not release them fast enough in an order you like.

You should have just bought the XM sentinel diorama to get all of them in one shot. But i'm sure they are not perfect so they need to go back and do them correctly.

Or we can flood there inboxes and hope the next reveals this July/12 days of SS or in between, we see one of them. If not maybe they will have a cool character in between to hold us over that we probably wanted to.

So you are saying for the sake of being PC they won't do him ?

It would be cool. I've seen Blob drawn muscular. Fat muscles kind of like King Pin. I think it could look awesome. I can dream can I.....
