If they did, we would here nothing but complaints about them being obscure characters that no body apparently wants...

Wow just read the whole thread ...A lot of f'n haters here...IMO if you dont like appreciate Sideshow doing a character like that you're a Marvel poseur, A wanna be Marvel Collector.A caca.Some of You know 5 super-Heroes and a couple X-men and you call themselves big Marvel Fans....Some here collect Marvel cause they think the movies are cool and the pieces are hot on the after market..then when a character they never heard of gets produced, they become angry at Sideshow....
Man-Thing was actually created even before DC's Swamp-Thing...He's always been part of the MU and is actually not that much of an obscure character.. he's a visually stunning character and his sculpt will be probably amazing...I bet the guy at Sideshow had a blast making him,this is right up their Horror roots..
Thanks sideshow for giving some real comic fans something different.

I have a feeling this will be an awesome piece... Shai's right, Sideshow probably had a lot of fun designing him.

Man Thing is pretty cool but if I had to choice Swamp Thing would have been much cooler IMO.

I agree to a point, but simple recognition or understanding of a character doesnt warrent spending 100s of bucks on a statue. There are a number of people that seem pretty sure they will be buying Man-Thing, and I am sure some will! I have a feeling though, that when Man-Thing comes out the cancellation rate will be through the roof because collectors will be spending thier money on a more "desirable" charater.
Also, Man-thing was released 2 months before Swamp thing... he got gyped out of an 80s TV series IMO!

Swamp Thing is DC...so we will never see a Sideshow swamp thing...and most likely DC direct won't spend the money to put one out either.

I mean compaired to The Hulk and Abomination and stuff like that?
I agree with you too...but I'll give you an exemple...I was totally not interested in their VS piece of Spiral and psylocke but I know some fans enjoyed it and I love the fact that Sideshow are willing to go very deep in the Marvel Universe Encyclopedia...This was usually Bowen only territory.

Oh don't get me wrong. If it makes some collectors happy thats great! My only problem with the choice is they could have made a few B or C tier characters that made a lot more people happy and was outside thier normal group of A listers.
