Kinda feel like his will be the next Van Helsing but if sideshow have aqquired the right to this and van hellsing maybe theres a chance they'll get the rights to the new wolfman, which i think looks great.
So its a waste cause you don't like it? Lets just stop it now because Carl doesn't like it.
That's not what I'm saying. You know as well as I do that these likely won't sell that well. Hell, even many of the people in this thread who say they like the silly Sommers MUMMY movies are saying they have no interest in the collectibles.
Sideshow has lots of licenses and lines that I have no interest in and don't purchase, but I at least understand that there is a market for them (and some of them do well). This, on the other hand, I don't get at all. Who the hell is clammoring for any Branden Fraser MUMMY stuff?
I agree with Carol. Look how Sideshow struggles to release any LOTR figures. Or any line for that matter. They take on a trickle pace. 2 - 3 figures a year is not enough to maintain interest in a line. They just took on GI Joe. Isn't that enough complications? From what it seems, Sideshow hires very few artists (relatively speaking, I don't know the number), so things take a LONG time to get done. How are they going to make any more figures when their main franchise, Star Wars, barely has a new figure every couple months?
So its a waste cause you don't like it? Lets just stop it now because Carl doesn't like it.
...However, some franchises ARE bad or good. And the Mummy is one of those that is just plain awful...
This is just your opinion. Enough people like these movies that they keep making sequels, and Sideshow thought it was a worthwhile license. Just because some of you guys don't like the movies, doesn't mean it is a bad license to acquire, and just because some of us do like it doesn't mean it is a good license to acquire. Sideshow has done their research and decided the property is popular enough to go after the license and produce products. I for one will at least make an informed decision after seeing the movie and the products, and not just dismiss them offhand without so much as even seeing anything...
Hey. I just took a crap and it looks just like Brendan Fraser from the Mummy, I no longer need anything from this line.
