Q.With the Diablo III Overthrown diorama we saw the Barbarian. Now that all classes were revealed, will we ever see a diorama for each Diablo III class, or a group diorama like the X-Force diorama?

Sideshow and Blizzard are in discussions about Diablo III. We’re far from decided on the best way to represent the various classes, but we are tremendously excited!

Q.I’ve asked this question a few times and I’m still waiting for an answer! When are we going to see a 1:6 scale Mara Jade?

The answer is “not in 2012.” But believe us when we say that your enthusiasm is shared by our development team. It’s important for us to have the right approach for characters, including Mara, and we are on it. For example, when it comes to females (and other new body types) we are making leaps [...]

Q.Ever thought about making some upgrade kits to some of the figures that have already come out? Like Cobra Commander’s metal mask or even Captain Rex’s Phase 2 helmet? Rather than coming out with a whole new figure it’d be better with an upgrade kit!

We like the ideas and options upgrade kits could offer, and are looking into it. But we also like producing new figures with fresh eyes! Things are progressing quickly with our development and production processes, and we feel somewhat obligated to take a new approach at characters, especially if our last attempts were years ago. [...]

Q.I just finished reading X-Men Schism. In it Wolverine and Cyclops fight while a sentinel is attacking, which brings me to my question: could you guys make a Wolverine vs Cyclops diorama?

We hear ya bub, but we are really stoked to show our Wolverine vs. Hulk first!

Q.Will we be seeing a Rogue Legendary Scale Bust? And a Gambit Comiquette?

Ah, well we like your line of thinking! As big fans of those characters we were excited to present them as Premium Format Figures that would display nicely together. At this time, we have a lot of other plans for Legendary Scale Busts and Comiquettes that come first on our agenda. But rest assured we [...]

Q.Now that we’ve got Shredder, what’s next for the Turtles?!

Better order a pizza and settle in, dude! Sideshow has some fresh ideas for TMNT, and we will be sharing them soon. Think smaller – more battle friendly! Just recently we caught up with our friend Kevin Eastman, co-creator of the Turtles, and showed him some of the early design ideas. And we got him [...]

Q.We want a Premium Format Superman, but of Christopher Reeve specifically! Are there any contractual hurdles to using his likeness?

Fear not my friend, we’ve got it covered in the name of truth, justice and the American way. Keep your eyes on the Design & Development blog in the near future, we will have some Superman (and Reeve) updates coming your way.

Q.Seriously, do you have any plan to produce a War Machine Legendary Scale Figure? When? I really want it, as my Mark III Half Scale Maquette needs a friend!

We’re a touch distracted by the awesomeness presented by The Avengers, but yes, it’s in the plan.

Q.Hi Sideshow, I was wondering if you are working on your first female Legendary Scale Figure from Marvel yet? If you did a Mary Jane I’d be sooo happy!

Marvel lovelies are on our radar and coming soon. Meanwhile, from a whole different Universe,  keep a look out for Catwoman! She is fierce and she is close to the finish line. Meow.

Q.Hi could you please make a Joe Fixit Hulk statue? 1/4 scale, with pin strip suit smoking a cigar! And fully decked out, how he was during David’s run?

YES! A completely excellent idea, Fixit is the bomb.

Q.Hello Sideshow, I have been collecting from you for a long time and just wanted to know if you will ever get the rights to to make a kickass Red Sonja statue? Or even a statue of Chastity, from old Chaos Comics?

We hear you man! We love us some red-heads too. And I’m happy to confirm we have a Red Sonja in development at the moment. Now, the chaste girls… maybe, if they loosen up.

Q.Would you guys consider doing an exclusive, limited edition ‘Losers of G.I. JOE’ line featuring the Joes that would otherwise never make the cut (aka: Crazy Legs, Skidmark, and Big Lob)? Good way to showcase special interest material. :)

Aw man, where was this suggestion around the 1st of April?
