It's understandable from the standpoint of the type of figures Hot Toys had been producing up until they began the MMS line, though. Most of HT's core customers were military collectors, so I doubt Bishop and Newt would've sold very well compared to the M56 smart-gun wielding badasses Drake and Vas, at least in the beginning.
For what it's worth, Hicks was still available at retail up until around this time last year in Japan, and all of the others can still be had for the same price in a couple of places. As much as we all want Newt, Bishop and some of the others, HT probably just doesn't see enough profit in it. I pray they're still planning to make Queenie, though. They just have to make her before the line fizzles out completely!
