    Captain Marvel ” SHAZAM ! ”
    is a must .

  2. Nope says:

    hm, so okay its been like 5 months and I guess you guys had nothing to show at Toy Fair. So whats going on with the license at Sideshow? Is Lee/Johns/Didio getting all up in you’re face?

  3. TJD says:

    Oh yeah….PF Batman HAS to have working Bat signal!!!!

  4. TJD says:

    Premium Format Batman!!! “Holy bank account!”

  5. Michael W Smith says:

    Superboy PFF Black Shirt version!!!

  6. news says:

    WHITEOUT

  7. Wws1fan says:

    Wonder Woman!!! Not too much high end stuff though… I DO have a mortgage to pay!

  8. ian Besford says:

    Geoff Johns/Morales era Hawkman is the ultimate premium format statue for me. Should prove to be a good challenge for the sculpters as well!

  9. Phillip Spiwak says:

    Justice League Book Ends ? Doctor Fate Statue ? Red Tornado Statue ? Hawk & Dove Statues ? THE SPECTRE (SCARY) ??? … .

  10. Donnie says:

    Please dear Gods of DC Universe bless us with a fantastic Penguin figure….great sculpt, working umbrella and classic appearance.

  11. Dan J says:

    I love that Sideshow is now DC licensed. The Joker is perfect as a first line, as with every line they start with a villain, Marvel was Dr. Doom, LOTR was Lurtz and Sideshow continues with the tradition now with The Joker. I Cant Wait….

  12. Jesse says:

    can’t wait to see a Power Woman statue? should be your first DC female statue?

  13. Batmyte says:

    Me happy now!! Along with all my DC Comics and stuff, I now can have SS DC stuff!! ;)

  14. alex says:

    where is Superman and Batman?

  15. clickrspkt says:

    Super Super Superman!

  16. Mike says:

    Are you kidding me? The JOKER is the strating point for the DC launch? Is this a joke? How about a hero for the launch? Hmmmm, what a novel idea! Sideshow missed this one so deal me out!

  17. ivan says:

    every night when i go to sleep i dream of stuff like this

  18. Chris says:

    This is Epic. Please do a PFF Batman soon!

  19. Shane says:

    All DC Premium formats shall be mine! Now a question for the wife. Since Warner Bros. Consumer Products is teaming with Sideshow does that mean we’d see Harry Potter Premium Format items. Billions at the box office = A no Brainer!

  20. Deonysius Johnson says:

    Fantastic!!! However; unless they have a Captain Marvel premium in the mix then I’ll pretty much stick with the JOES.

  21. elio says:

    magnifique!!!!!!!!!

  22. Nate says:

    What an epic news, Sideshow Team! Looking forward to Darkseid Premium Format figure, 1:2 bust, 1:1 bust and VS diorama with Superman.

  23. sylar says:

    finally!it took you guys long enough!iv’e been saying this for years!!now can i get my green lantern with light up ring,a superman with heat vision(light up)a batman perched ontop a working bat signal,and and wonderwoman in her armor from kingdom come!its good to see a suggestion become reality.:)

  24. kevinsnazz says:

    I know it will never happen, but if you ever did any of Mike Grell’s the Warlord 1/6 or polystone statues, you’d make at least one person very, very, very happy (and I’d buy more than just GI Joes from you). Congratulations Sideshow, I’ve been very pleased with everything I’ve purchased from you and you deserve this.

  25. Peter says:

    I need a second job…

  26. Paulie says:

    Awesome News. DC has many heroes, but none are as iconic as Superman.

    I’m really hoping for a Christopher Reeve who in my books, was the best portrayal of the Man of Steel

  27. M the bullet says:

    Adam Hughes + Sideshow + DC characters= Absolute awesomeness!

  28. biggiehead says:

    Just found out the news! This is crazy! Thank you for getting DC license, Sideshow. I’m excited to see 1/4 scale pieces like Superboy Prime, Doomsday, LexCorp armored Lex Luthor and Darkseid. Dreams do come true sometimes….

  29. TMT says:

    Dear Sideshow, not only I need DC PFs from you guys, I would like to see Legendary Scale Busts for Darkseid, Doomsday, Joker, Lex Luthor armor, Cyborg Superman and lots of possibilties to choose from!

  30. Level.2 says:

    Bruno, I am sure you will see many DC LSBs, esp of the ladies.

  31. NeilBD says:

    Great Scott! Could the Batman statue of my dreams finally be making its way into reality? Is the Joker lurking in the walls?
    Thank you SS!

  32. Fabian says:

    Excelente noticia, y felicitaciones por ello. No puedo esperar a ver las grandiosas obras de arte que nos brindaran, batman, superman, flash,…….. la mujer maravila 8babeo, babeo ahhhhhh)

  33. Felipe says:

    Darkseid and Doomsday in Premium Format. They would be prefect with Superman.

  34. William Marcus says:

    This is a guaranteed money spinner for Sideshow. I’m more interested in this D.C. Comics’ franchise than any Marvel comics range of statues. If only sideshow would release a line of 1/6 scale figures based on the Warner Bros. / Tim Burton’s Batman movies !

  35. Bruno says:

    Please, Please, i’m begging you guys of sideshow … please do Legendary Scale Busts of the DC Comics Characters, please! (starting with Etrigan!!!)

  36. averone says:

    Great news, however I do have to get rid of most of my statues because the little collection room I have has officially run out of space.

  37. Patrick says:

    This is horrible! What are you people, the mob? Just when I think I’m out…

    Yeah, 1/6 scale figures? All over those.

  38. dp says:

    looking forward to what you’ll be producing. hopefully youll do DC justice..;) listen to the customers/fans and give them what they want. not what you want to give them.

  39. architect1978 says:
