New Poll - who would you buy from Sideshow?

[IrishJedi]

And I'd buy a 12" of that before movie-based G.I. JOE figures.

Why is there no Map Room Indy on this poll? He should be next! And also a polystone Map Room environment!

It's because Dave hates you!

Guess I won't be sending him anymore scripts then.

Eh, he can get them all here anyway: https://www.script-o-rama.com/table.shtml

 

[kl241]

Not the ones I get.

 

[Entropy]

1. Short Round
2. Marion
3. Mola Ram
4. Sallah

I'd buy those four only.

Yup. These are the ones Sideshow should make long before any others.

1. Mola Ram - no brainer. Great design and memorable villain.
2. Marion - bar outfit w alternate hair down portrait. EX could be her white dress.

Sallah and Short Round would be ok but not must haves imo.

Well I'd love to see the line go on for a while even if it's just 2 to 3 figures a year but I honestly don't see any of them being huge sellers. Sure if the edition size is small enough like German Indy at 750 they shoul sell out but how big does an edition size need to be for them to consider the line a success and profitable?

At 1,000 or under I think Short Round, Marion, Ram and Sallah would all sell out and maybe the rest on the list too but will they keep making a line with that low of a run?

This poll is frustrating because all I see now are figures I'll never have.

The only one that even seems remotely possible is Mola Ram.

At least they haven't wasted our time with Mutt yet.

Who knows? The most recent series of Ask Sideshow answers seems to point to more R&D into female figure bodies. Gives me reason to hope for a Marion at the very least.

Dear Sideshow,

Mola Ram or GTFO.

The end.

If they keep charging $100 plus for figures, I think they would.

I think the Cairo Marion and the white dress have all been done so I would not want to see those done again. I want to see the Raven Bar Marion with the necklace and Headpiece. Yes, it is a bit more complex of a costume which is probably why it'll never see the light of day on any figure of any kind but it could be done. The blouse has a unique color pattern stripped in along with with some embroidery but at this scale they could just have this stuff printed on the fabric. Same with the scarf which also has a unique pattern and some seaquins. The rest is pretty easy...simple brown wool pants and simple boots. The hair may be tricky since it would be sculpted, but what if they could lay some hair down over the sculpted hair to give it some realism? That would be cool.

The bolded I agree with. The rest, especially the doll hair, not so much. So long as the clothes "look" like they did in the movie, I'm not gonna nitpick color patterns, embroidery, sequins, etc. I'll be content to get a Marion I can stand next to Indy.

 

[ProgMatinee]

what do you mean "they've all been done" theres never been a 12" Marion figure.

Thats what I'm saying. Who cares about the 3 inch figures. And ^^^^ Hasbro for showing off the Toht/German Mechanic, Marion wave and never releasing them.

Indy 1/6 on pause.

Guess you shouldn't have complained so much about Indy as German, eh?
