This is exactly what would intrest me. Rediscovered my love of lego over xmas. Just finished putting the AT-AT together today. Would love a UCS Super Star Destroyer but the prices are crazy but cant justify dropping £350 on one lego set in one hit. Finished putting together all the new lego batman sets last week.

"Yey Legos", I would say if I was 8. But now I am just "WTF"!!! :S
SSC should focus on those lines that they already have, for example DC line or Marvel line.

Personally I think this is kind of stupid, but whatever floats their boat. Sideshow is doing a fine job of pushing me away from buying their products. Before you know it, they will only be selling toys and no statues.

What if they have expensive exclusive only sets available?

Why? Lego's high end stuff seems right up some of Sideshow's target audience's alley. It's not like Sideshow will be wasting a lot of resources on R&D. If they can distribute it to people that could not normally get it and maybe do some exclusives why not? I can see not buying it, but driving you away from buying other products....really?
That's an 18 pound box of lego's! Not mine btw.
Like the same set you can get at Walmart, $40 more, and an exclusive Chewbacca lego figure?

Obviously if thats the case then that'd be pretty dumb but is that confirmed or is this all normal forum speculation with no information available?
Im just saying, they might offer some exclusive legos that cant be bought at stores unless you know information that I dont.
There are some very cool higher end lego stuff.

You'll pay 15% more but at least you get flex pay so that it doesn't seem like you're over paying!!!

They're pushing you away from buying their products by carrying different products?
I quit buying anything Sideshow when they started carrying stuff other than Jeb Stuart 1/6th figures.

Unless they will only be carrying the "hero" themed sets like Star Wars, POTC, LOTR, Batman and the Avengers sets.

Why would SSC carry Lego? Nobody is going to buy from them when it can easily be pick up at a local retailer. What's next for SSC.....Barbie?
Well, I can't blame you. They've really gone downhill since then.

That Jeb Stuart is one of the best 1/6 figures they made.....well minus the body.
I agree with others here. Why they chose to carry LEGOs instead of Minimates is a mystery, and frankly, a disgrace.

I like legos, but I've always thought of them as something that works best at toy and department stores. Maybe they can bring in Lego fans with Sideshow exclusive sets or something.

Wow these guys must REALLY be desperate.
Not only do they require NRD's now they are hoping to make up for lost revenue by selling commercially available Legos.
What's next? Hasbro toys?
Is it any wonder why people aren't making their purchases directly from them anymore when they can buy from an authorized seller for much less without the taxes and non-refundable deposits and cancellation fees?
How times have changed. I used to love buying from them.
