The Rocketeer would be incredible, but I have feeling rather then take advantage of those great titles like 20,000 Leagues, were gonna get 25 Pirates of the Crap-a-bein Premiums of the same characters.

I hope Sideshows smart enough to not do that...

Also, I thought D!ck Tracy was Disney? Was I mistaken? I would love a Premium of Warren Beatty rocking a Tommy Gun.
 
I also wonder...

What if they are possibly doing something for the newest Kingdom Hearts game?...Or would they need permission from Square-Enix?

They would need the permission from Square-Enix but they aren't too selective, before Master Replicas went down in a blaze, they were planning an expansive Kingdom Hearts license with 1:1 pieces and statues, etc. So it proves that both Disney and Square-Enix would actually be up for it.

Yep, but they won't bother with most of it, I bet you. It's only going to be what SS and Disney (you know they are bound to have right of approval) perceive as profitable.

No but it shows just how expansive they could be. Many of these pieces I feel will be one shots from a film or show that would sell well as a character than actual lines.

I guess I'm more of a realist. I just can't dream but so big, since it's Sideshow, and they have been around long enough that you can see patterns in their behavior. Espescially in this economy, we're not gonna get much of the cool geek stuff. It's gonna be Tinkerbelles and Mickeys and Snow Whites, etc. Bet you. "could be" won't get the cool stuff made. SS has a Star Wars license, it's expansive as well. I keep waiting for Yoda, Bossk, Greedo, and Chewie, and we keep getting Captain Antilles, scads of Lukes, Obis, Hans, and lots of prequel trilogy crap.
 
Disney license?

Hmmmm...the possibilities are endless!

I love to see a Rocketeer PF!

It's pretty unlikely that we'll get any of the animated characters. Disney already does them themselves, so there wouldn't be any point to turning that style over to Sideshow. Instead, we are likely to get the clothed humans from the million other Disney movies and television shows.

I'd drop $250 on either a Guy Williams Zorro, Fess Parker Davy Crockett, or a Patrick McGoohan Dr. Syn (the Scarecrow) in a heartbeat. I'd also happily take a PF of Jack Sparrow, Davy Jones or Barbossa.
 
Don't get me wrong- if I was running Sideshow, I would pursue this license as well, it makes perfect business sense. But as a toy geek, I could really care less- I don't see SS doing a lot of stuff aimed at us- it's going to be stuff for the classic Disney Collector crowd, to pull in that new business.
For me, though, it is a yawn.

Not necessarily true - PotC and NBC is definitely aimed in our direction - there's a ton of stuff that's possible that could cross over and not just be for the traditional Disney animated character. Although a Mickey with faux fur and a Donald with feathers would be irresistible.
 
I would luv a rocketeer not sure about too many cartoon type stuff fiting in real well with my collection.
 
I just got home from being out of town and saw the big reveal. Not what I was expecting that's for sure, but if they make a Micky, Minnie and Donald PF, and especially a Jack Sparrow PF I probably wouldn't be able to resist. Aladdin would probably be sweet too. I doubt the Micky, Minnie and Donald would have actual fur or feathers though, I think fully sculpted as long as the clothes are real would work. And the Jack Sparrow likeness has to be pretty close to Johnny Depp or I'll be extremely ticked off!
