Q. Hi, I’m a huge Conan fan(atic). The original Howard stories, the
comics, and the movies, and the two Conan pieces that you guys have
done so far are amongst your very best work in my opinion. Can we
expect to see anymore Conan pieces from Sideshow this year? Last
year’s The Prize was a masterpiece…even if Conan didn’t have blue
eyes. By Crom, we need more Conan, Sideshow!
A. Absolutely, we have three Conan pieces currently in the
sculpture phase, rather big and impressive compositions,
including a new 1:4 scale piece. All are from the
literature side, non-film.



Q. Regarding your upcoming Sauron piece in collaboration with Jerry
Vanderstelt, I was wondering if you could comment officially on
whether it will fall into the Premium Format category (even if not
officially 1/4 scale), or if it will in fact be one of the first
(if not the first) baddie in the new maquette line? This is easily
my most anticipated piece, and I know everyone is eager to know
more!
A. It’s going to be BIG. It will be done in approximately 1:4
scale, true to the Premium Format line. If all goes according to
plan, this will be a major centerpiece for the LOTR line, a very
singularly impressive statement piece
