While I'm personally really looking forward to some animated film character PF's and no doubt to have a direct license agreement with Disney is a very big deal.

However, at this point, after 20 pages we are just going around in circles. All we know are two things, Disney and PF's, till Sideshow make a full press release announcement as to what exactly it means, I don't see the point in 50 more 'I'd only what POTC PF', etc.

Battletroll, in a way I agree with you, we all have only so much money and space to display. However, at the same time, while I have LOTR, starwars and even marvel statues, SS hasn't announced or shipping anything in the past 6 months that I want (apart from the Indy PF). And while there are a few possible future items of interest, like say the Electric Tiki Willow (from Buffy), what I really wanted was a Willow PF.

In a way the WDCC line is much the same, some look pretty nice, tho not cheap, and given cartoon characters, then of course its large area of flat colour. I always thought that for cartoons, the mixed media of a PF is just perfect for Belle's dress, etc.

Now sure, I never expected it too happen, just like I don't expect a Willow PF, but I'm learning, that unless its something I really want, then don't accept a substitute. Wait to see if what you really want ever gets made (Disney PF's looking like a real chance) or give it a pass and wait. No doubt if one waits longer enough, something else will come along that you'll think, yeah, now that I do really want.
 
I'll be honest, I could see this being a small line where Sideshow acquired the license just to do a few pieces. POTC and Tron comes to mind since those are things I've heard people requesting prior to this announcement. If that's the case it'll certainly be cheaper on me, because I could easily go whole hog for this license.
 
I gave up on premium format a long time ago, but even the possibilty of a Tron PF that lights up is drool worthy. :drool
 
Here is a thought for Capt. Britain...

The original Disney sketches of Tinkerbell show her clothed only in a Tutu with bells and slippers...like she is some kind of porn star!

:)
 
I think you are thinking too box-like. There is a chance at a Farscape license! Then there is Tombstone...





Nah, you're right. Whatever comes out will be too lame to mention...unless you like Hannah Montana!

LOL

OMG...you're right...Tombstone could be a possibility! And since Disney know owns most of the other Cinergi film rights, does that mean a possible Rambo PF? Or a Judge Dredd? Or a John McCain? It's so damn hard for any normal person to keep track of who owns final rights to what these days...

Not sure if this was mentioned already, but the Haunted Mansion's Hitchhiking Ghosts could also be a possibility....:banana

Wow, that would be cool.

I still want a Don Rosa designed Scrooge McDuck mixed media PF though.
 
Who ever this Disney PF licence is aimed at, it's good that SSC can make those collectors happy.

I saw Tron again last night, and I realized that even if SSC did a Tron PF, I wouldn't get it. I want Tron 1/6 figures, and lightcycles. That would interest me more than a PF figure. The price of one PF alone buys you two or three 1/6 figures, and, I really want lightcycles. 1/6 scale lightcycles are absolutely doable, and very likely to happen, if someone would take the risk to make 12" Tron figures.

The lightcycles are a true design masterpiece, time for a 1/6 treatment!

They already have disney items for distribution, and they can't get rid of them. Forget it, I was right about JP, I'll be right about this.

Well, just from my standpoint, I'm more interested in purchasing Sideshow products than from other companies. So I'd be more inclined to buy a Sideshow Disney PF than something produced by Electri Tiki or Enesco. Grant you I won't like everything that Sideshow might create in this line, but they are bound to hit on a few things that I'd be interested in. To me, that's a lot better than focusing on a single movie or franchise.
