Many thanks to Dstephan for the opportunity to interact with folks in this forum - and for dedicating space to the humble Sideshow team. We're honored to be part of the discussion
I have to say that there's one type of question we'll never be able to answer without a kind of glib response <meaning unsatisfactory>. We're happy to drop hints when we can, but we cannot answer any direct questions about what we're planning in the future. The big man frowns upon letting the cat out of the bag prematurely.
Please use this thread for all those sorts of questions or quasi-suggestions, and please don't be offended when we can't answer. But for a few frequently asked questions:
1. Will Sideshow/WETA be announcing more LOTR product this year?
MOST definitely! There are more statues, busts, and other assorted goodies coming - you haven't heard the last from us! We'll announce the new products sporadically throughout the year.... and there's some very good stuff on the horizon. Don't despair!
2. Is my favorite line dead? When will you be announcing new figures?
In the world of Sideshow, nothing ever dies. Take Buffy for instance - after a two year hiatus, we're back with a passion. While we may get distracted with new movies or other products, there's a very good chance that we'll go back to continue the WWI or Live By the Sword line at the earliest opportunity. When we've got something ready, you'll be the first to know!
3. Are you sure General Lee had three collar stars, and not four?
Okay, we LOVE this kind of question. Our design team really researches details like these before we commit to plastic, so we're happy to fence with folks that believe they've found a flaw. And if we're wrong, we're glad to know! Feel free to throw detailed questions at us, about ANY current product.
Grroooovy!
