Sideshow Collectibles “Ask Sideshow” for January 25th – Marvel Edition
Posted by: Dr_Teng In: Statues
Another fairly extensive Ask Sideshow this week, looks like they’re taking care of a ton of themed questions lately. There’s a few scale and other questions that may interest some peoplebut I wouldn’t consider highlights, so I’ll link the page here as well if you want the full read.
Love the Adam Hughes Marvel women statues.. He’s done some fine DC covers..(i.e. Power Girl/Wonder Woman etc.)Do you or are you able to look at DC licensing? Does your Marvel licensing require that you cannot look at other companies’ characters? And are you looking at some of the more mainstream Marvel Females..specifically Ms. Marvel.. seems this character is always overlooked and would make a great statue.
Yes, Sideshow is very interested in taking on the DC Universe. As for Ms. Marvel, in some form – stay tuned to our upcoming newsletters
A sidenote – I’ve seen really really tiny previews of two versions of Ms. Marvel. I never posted them because they were incredibly small. One looked good, one was iffy, so we’ll see which version shows up soon.
Now that we have seen the Cyclops Premium Format/Comiquette sneak is there a chance we will see a Colossus PF/Com in the near future? These 2 characters proved extremely popular on the 1st Vs Dio, and the giant Russian would look amazing in 1/4 scale!
We’re able to confirm that the Cyclops figure currently in development is 1:4 scale, and the Colossus currently in development is approximately 1:5 scale. Yes, it is likely that Cyclops will see release in the future in a complementary scale to your favorite Russian, and vice-versa. We do intend both PF and Comiquette pieces for both characters.
Any chance we will see a Legendary Scale Bust of Iron Man in his Classic armor?
You’re interest is duly noted, and we’ll pass along your suggestion. As much as we adore Iron Man, we are sensitive to spacing out the Iron Man offerings, and with Iron Man 2 releasing this year, we have a LOT of Iron Man to offer you.
It’s been a while since we have seen anything from the Spider-Man movies. Seeing how Part 4 starts production next year, are there any plans to revisit this line, with respects to parts 1 and 2? I would love to see a diorama with Doc Oc from part 2!
We’ve been evaluating the Spider-Man trilogy for product ideas in anticipation of Spider-Man 4. With the recent rumors about the possibility of a Spider-Man reboot in lieu of Spider-Man 4, all Spider-Man movie considerations are on hold until some real news is announced.
Is there any development of a Premium Format figure, Comiquette or Maquette of Firestar from Spider-Man and his amazing friends, or a Susan Storm from Fantastic Four? That would be awesome!
Firestar has yet to appear in any of our planning, but Sue Storm is a near certainty.
