Oh, we're still cooking on the LOTR line, but man, each LOTR character requires quite a bit of effort, artistry, and research. The creative team feels immense responsibility with the LOTR characters. We're as excited about the next announcement as you are, but just want to hold off a bit until...

That is correct, the Probe Droids are running a few weeks behind Maul. We figured Maul was a little more Christmas-y, being red and all.

No need to fret, we're working on obtaining the correct bases before we begin to process the e-mails w/ the images and edition numbers. If you've sent your info in, you're in the que and the clear.

Double checking this, but it should be the AVP version. Apologies for the confusion... It is in an all new color-scheme, with a rather impressive accessory (does it count as a character?). ;p

Look to the Sideshow site for an update, with images of the final piece. We got our hands on a finished sample this week, and it is beyond beautiful. Amazing work.

Happy Birthday, Lon! October birthdays are the best... :p

In that picture, you can actually see both Saw puppets. The smaller one is the one that is now shipping (on the way from China), and the larger one on the tricycle is the 1:1 scale piece. It will be available for preorder in a few weeks... and final pricing etc will be announced then. Both Saw...

I think you're on to something. Some future SW novel will reveal that Jabba's frog-like snacks are actually baby Nautolans. Kit Fisto's people will rise up against the hutts... The answer will be revealed very, very shortly. Bib might know a thing or two about it.

I hope that there's an opportunity to meet all you non-attendees in more than spirit, someday... But there was a lot of love in the room - more than could have been generated just by the attendees. So, yah, we missed y'all there...

From all the Sideshow staff to all the Freaks that made tonight incredibly memorable, and a hell of a lot of fun, THANK YOU! And Dave... all hail to Dave for a fantastic time. The party was a true success - smiles all around, and a really, really great time. THANK YOU!!!! It was incredible to...

You don't LIKE the ANH version of Jabba? It's not your favorite? *whistles to Dooley - dude, we've got some work to do! We need some clay and sculpey in here... it's gonna be a LONG night...* :lol

I'd be very surprised (very pleasantly surprised) if any of you guess this particular '?' It's something new for Horror fans, not from one of our existing Horror formats.

*sneaking a big straw-full out of Dusty's cherry coke. Passes popcorn* Congrats! One more day, and all of your questions will be answered... But don't stop the guessing... that is the best part!

Alright, Wor-Gar, here are some T's and S's just for you. Can't give any more hints about what you're solving - it's something Star Wars, and you will figure it out, we're sure of it. _ _ _ _ _ s . t _ _ o _ e . e _ _ _ _ o _ _ _ _ t Tom - the dianoga solve is maybe my favorite so far... :)

*joins Dusty on big sofa seat to watch the show. Reluctantly shares nachos* Looking good, guys. I believe Tom asked to buy a vowel... Here's a(n updated) hint about one of them... _ _ _ _ _ _ . _ _ _ o _ e . e _ _ _ _ o _ _ _ _ _

None of us are sure where StarWars.com got that info from... it may be a little misleading. Here's a hint about one of them... _ _ _ _ _ _ . _ _ _ _ _ e . e _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ :D

"Sideshow doesn't read these threads anymore..." :rotfl With the goodness going on in preparation for San Diego, there's sadly not much time to comment. Just keep doing what you do, and things will continue to :rock B

The military line won't be strictly generic, but the majority will be.

Tom, I've got (relatively) good news for you. We anticipated breakage on Grievous. He's so big, so spindly, and so intricate. We chose not to make him more... bullet-proof... it would have forced us to simplify the casting (more fused parts, less detail). He would have become more of a statue...

Actually, we did try an embroidered version during development. The tight embroidery pattern created two problems - it was so heavy that we feared it would damage the figure, and it was so stiff that it looked very unnatural draped over Grievous' form. The embroidered version is still floating...
