Has there been any news on when the Chairface Chippendale figure will go up for pre-order or if there are more figures for the Tick line planned? I was just Googling characters from the show and, in addition to a nostalgia hit, I was reminded how many zany and toyetic characters there were. I...

The Tick was top want for me, too. I hope BBTS and FMF make it a real line and release figures at a decent rate. I wonder how pre-orders for Tick are going. Hopefully, they're high enough for them to start development on several more figures past Chairface.

I'd be all over Space Ghost and Looney Toons lines. Those are currently top of my wishlist. For Space Ghost, I would be happy with the 4 main characters from the Cartoon Network shows. For Looney Toons, I would love for the line to go deep into the characters. Although, I'm not interested in...

Looks like diamondselecttoys.com is down. It says 'temporarily down for maintenance', but I assume it will probably be permanent. Maybe it will come back better than ever?

For anyone else still interested in the Diamond bankruptcy legal mess, a bunch of loose ends were supposed to be addressed in court this week. Apparently, as the below article describes, only some progress was made and the issues will be covered in court at the end of September. I was hoping...

I hope you're both right, but I am concerned. The SCOTUS ruling on presidential immunity is especially concerning. As the dissenting opinion notes, he could order the execution of political opponents and be immune from prosecution. It's a wildly broad ruling that has and will continue to allow...

I hope there are midterm elections....

Veebs posted on Instagram that Big Bird will be the next NECA Sesame Street figure to come out. He speculated it will be solicited in the next couple of weeks because it is supposed to come out by the end of the year. I hope they make his body a little bit wider/rounder in the final figure and...

Until my bbts and ee orders are canceled, I am holding onto hope. For the Rebellion! For Laura!

Someone on Reddit shared the email they received from EB Games with the list of canceled DST products. Looks like everything EB is selling. Damn. The Muppets aren't on there, though! Those could still be coming, right?!?!?!? I expect bbts and ee will cancel my orders there within the next couple...

It looks like the Mrs. Claus figure has a diaphragm cut. If they are not likely to redo the upper torso sculpt to allow for more reuse potential, I wonder if they could resculpt the lower torso to make it fatter. Since the lower torso seems to include the bottom of the coat, I assume reuse...

Thanks for letting me know!

Would someone who is at SDCC please let me know what is at the Diamond Select Toys booth space? Apparently, they set up something, and I'm really curious what it is. I'm guessing it's just a shop for merch from the various Ad Populum companies, but I'd still like to know.

Yesterday, I received the below message from DST customer service about my two outstanding orders from their website. One order was for pre-order items; the other was for in-stock. I don't know what Ad Populum will do with the existing DST products. Apparently they won't be selling them to...

In past cons, I think Jada usually adds more new figures to the display as the con goes on. I guess many companies do that. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for Santa, Lucky, and Cap'n Crunch to join the display at some point this weekend. Jada seems to be quick with reveals and slow with putting...

I hope they make a figure of the Santa from Frosty. I collect Santa figures and would love to add that figure to my collection. I noticed Fred and Barney in a few brief videos. Have they shown any new food mascot figures? Maybe they'll put more out later this weekend?

I hope Mr. Johnson comes with a hat to be Soundman Simon. I'd buy two to display both characters, if that's the case. Will they reveal any more characters this weekend? I wonder when Big Bird, Oscar, and Herry will go up for pre-order. I can't tell how much the figures have been changed from...

The new NECA Sesame Street figures are Grover and Mr. Johnson! Awesome picks. They are at 6:45 in the video.

I would pay big money for the Muppet figure prototypes.

Apparently, some type of booth for DST was set up yesterday for SDCC. In the article, the author, Heidi MacDonald, speculates they may be using the space to liquidate older merch. That seems like a good guess to me. Folks who attend SDCC, please let us know what's at the booth...

To avoid retailers canceling items that Diamond actually has and will ship, I assume Diamond will be sending retailers a list of the pre-order items they have. Or, does the statement actually mean that all pre-orders are canceled? Either way, I assume we'll find out soon which, if any...

Yesterday, retailers started receiving the below message that orders for products that Diamond does not currently have will not be filled. I really hope Sweetums, Pepe, and Uncle Deadly already shipped to Diamond. I'm not holding my breath, though. I'm also not holding out hope that any of my 8...

Apparently, retailers started getting the below message late yesterday, as reported in the below article. I guess we'll see which, if any, of the pre-orders have already been produced and shipped. I was really hoping that Ad Populum had plans for DST. I guess not. At least this is some...

Apparently, the SDCC map still shows booths for DST and Diamond. I wonder what will be at those booth locations. I guess we'll find out in less than a week. If anyone here is going, please let us know what is at booths #2607 and #2401...

My understanding is that Ad Populum has nothing to do with the liquidation of consigned products. There are essentially two Diamond entities. "Old" Diamond (or the 'debtor' in the bankruptcy) is trying to sell off the consigned products in their old warehouse to pay off the loan the received...
