So this is the end of the Danger Room line? I'm relieved as well that I only invested in Psylocke. I thought this was a very promising line for Koto until all the uncertainties came out as to which ones will actually get made. Really unfortunate.
That said, I'm worried about the future of Marvel bishoujo's. Gonk, can you tell us if this line will continue? I'm not a big fan of prematurely cancelling a line of statues. I'd sell my bishoujo's now if the same fate will befall this line and some already solicited statues get cancelled.

Actually nothing could be further from the truth. Our Bishoujo line is red-hot and we have plenty of Marvel ladies on board for this year and next. As for our Marvel Fine Art Statues, the next scheduled project just happens to take place in the Danger Room ...

Are there any ways for you guys to get 'probable' sale reports on WIP statues, before they go into production, to spare future upset for consumers who have invested into what appears to be a solid line?
I would really like to know are there any ways for you to futureproof any possible upset to consumers in the future, after teasing a fully completed 'amazing' prototype like Sabertooth and Rogue.

Oh man, this is terrible news, I was really looking forward to Rogue. Sabretooth not so much, but Koto's Rogue was looking to be something special. I really hope at least a limited run gets produced.

Was there a survery or something that resulted in this decision? I am extremely disapponinted...The Jim Lee line is by far the coolest and most promising line EVER. So to kick off this line we have a poor QC Physlocke, a non matching based Yellow Wolverine, followed by withdrawing the Brown Wolverine and Archangel, and now saying there is "lack of demand" hence no Rogue???
I for one will never pay higher price...simply based on all the BS.
For a fan to committ to a line, I'd expect the company to committ to it first.
