Re: re

The coolest thing is It wouldn't cost an arm and a leg to buy several high quality Stormtroopers, Clonetroopers, and Rebel Solders like it would if you went after the Marmet/Medicom versions!

Re: re

Must be a mistake then. Probably from another company that was mistaken for Sideshow.

2. how much will they cost?
3. which figures are first?

Re: re

Darth Kerad alot of those questions were answered in Chat:

1. is it OT or all 6 movies?
-yes, all six movies AND the expanded universe are covered under the agreement
2. how much will they cost?
-roughly 45-55 think Buffy, Highlander, etc
3. which figures are first?
-did not answer this
4. will higher editions be made to meet demand?
-only said they will be limited editions
5. will mass market retailers sell them?
-only on their website, and dealers/comic shops

Hope that helps!

Indy?

Fantastic - NOW THERE'S NO REASON FOR SIDESHOW NOT TO GET THE INDIANA JONES LICENCE TOO!!!!!!!!!

(never usually use caps but I felt it was merited just this once!)

 

[sanpedromanrique]

Indy?

Now I just need to wait until they will make LOTR 12" figures..........

re

At last a well made (affordable) range of figures from all 6 movies with awesome sculpts and accessories...with perhaps an unlimited assortment of characters.

Hasbro have relished in making an abundance of variations and most, if not all, of the more obscure characters. I don't see why that trend will stop now that Sideshow is on board. :yay
