Below is the question put to Sideshow regarding the Fellowship in PF form which I feel has yet to be addressed. Polls were set up and people responded and yet we have not had any feedback from SSC. For those who voted for a completed Fellowship in PF form I would ask that (like me), you ask Sideshow for a solid response, otherwise we could end up in the LSB position as the last line of the response hints at.
I still have a fools hope that Sam, Merry and Pippin will get the PF treatment. 1/6 Fellowship is already available so saying we will get them again (different poses, clothes etc) in 1/6 isn't the same as a high end PF
C'mon SS, we wants Hobbits!!!

Excellent news on the Ringwraith Premium format figure and now a possible Gandalf the Grey PF??? With money getting tight for a lot of people and collecting having to take a bit of a back seat to other less important things like bills, mortgage, food etc, could Sideshow PLEASE confirm one way or another if the Fellowship is to be completed in the PF line for LOTR? If not, who is least likely to make the cut and why? A detailed answer may help to answer more questions than it will undoubtedly generate (I hope!).
Please ask the majority of your fellow collectors if they would truly be interested in owning Premium Format figures of Samwise, Merry and Pippin. If the answer is yes, then you’re likely to see the full Fellowship represented in due time. Unfortunately, the hobbits, for whatever reason, do not seem to have the same appeal as other characters in collectible form, although we too wish it were otherwise. Similar to our approach with Marvel, characters of less popularity need to be mixed with more popular characters to best balance the line. So, if the line is able to continue long enough, all things are possible!
