Really dig the fact they included medallions! Hoping to see a PO for this soon.

Met with the licensing agent for Jimi's estate back in around 2013. They wanted $50k for the license ... which is absolutely insane considering you can really only do one or two looks, and most TV shows that have a cast of characters are only $25k or so.
 
Watched the Sideshow live video on facebook according to them it's gonna be shipping October - December this year ( highly unlikely) but the price is confirmed $289.

No alternate sculpt but still good for the price would of been nice to include the full montrey guitar or an Amp with a stage stand.
 
You guys can thank Molecule 8 for your Hendrix figure. Molecule 8 really pioneered the field of 60s musicians being released as 1/6th figures and proved they were much talked about with their John Lennon masterpiece. A figure so good they quit after realizing they would never make anything of that quality ever again!

The tragedy of creating a masterwork at your first attempt. Where to for the writer who picks up a pen for the first time and writes 'War and Peace'? What else to do the painter whose first daubs on a canvas produce the Mona Lisa?

So to Vajayjay and Molecule8. Weep not for the works that remain unmade, but rejoice for having known them at all.

You do bring up a very good point there. And hopefully now that a competent company is tackling a musician, that more will follow.
 
It's a shame no one else has tried to get the Queen license - apart from star ace who make glorified barbies :rotfl

Freddie would be a huge seller along with another Elvis. I'd love to see K.A resculpt by lennon and Bowie after Vijay stole her sculpts. Blitzway could possibly open up a new market. The fact Won has said they'll look at montrey Hendrix after this, testing the waters.

Here's hoping we see a PO for Jimi unlike last years figures that never saw the light of day. :lecture
 
Blitzway is definitely releasing some greatness
