I hadn't heard any of the fish guys were even stateside yet. So that's weird. I would definitely like a few fish guys. I have this fantasy that will never come to pass of a display with a barbarian on a ship fighting off fish guys crawling over the sides.
Oh man...this got me thinking that I'd love for SOMEONE to do a figure that could pass for Bêlit, especially the look she had in the Marvel series. I'd love to have her and the upcoming Conan figure from Heroic signatures fighting side-by-side against some of these fish dudes!
 
Every once in a while I'll check third-party sites/eBay/Etsy to see if someone has a custom Archer head for sale. It'd be such an easy custom with all the articulated suit bodies floating around these days.
 
Folks on Instagram think wave four will have SC's first female figure. I don't know how they're getting that out of the silhouette photo, but I'm all for it.
 
Female.

Lizard.

Although that tail silhouette is how I envision a fully articulated mammal tail like a wolf or Fox. It's basically how William did it. Maybe we'll get a hot Fox chick. Hot Fox buns.
 
The front silhouette could be a female figure - it looks smaller/narrower than the others. But who knows. First time Frazetta character is also not particularly helpful information (not that they're trying to give it away) because there's a lot of Frazetta paintings to never get action figures. The list of who it -can't- be with that information is far shorter. They've got my attention, though.
 
Looks like wave 4 will be revealed soon - 3 figures, one being another Frazetta based character. Hard to guess who based on this image they posted, maybe Kull?
They said the Frazetta figure would be someone who has never had an action figure before, which rules out a few characters like Kull and Tarzan. With how they've worded it I'm not sure if it's an original Frazetta character or not, as bragging about it being a first time action figure is weird in that case since the vast majority of his work has obviously not been adapted to action figure form, but they do phrase it as "hailing from" his artwork.

In either case I have no idea who it could be. Assuming it's the silhouette on the left, it looks like too many clothes and weapons for the really primitive barbarians like Jongor, the flesh eaters, or a Pellucidar character. And the Silver Warrior doesn't have a quiver.
 
If the silhouette that looks like it has arrows is the Frazetta character, I'm definitely at a loss. For as prolific as he was, I don't think Frazetta had tons of artwork featuring barbarian archers, and the few he did weren't particularly notable besides maybe his Tarzan stuff (which, again, there have been Tarzan action figures, and that's also a whole other license). He did a few of First Nations warriors, so maybe that? I honestly don't know and I'm not OVERLY invested either. It'll be fun finding out.

I'm sure he painted more archers than he did befeathered flamberge-wielders and lizard-men, unless there's some of his work I'm severely unaware of. It is strange that there isn't an obvious answer considering those criteria though.

I upped the contrast a bit and was able to kinda make out a few more details but nothing really useful. The top right silhouette doesn't necessarily have a tail as that thing between his legs is definitely crotch armour on the front, but the tail could be not visible from that angle. The texture on his armour seems very similar to the armour from the half human lemurian.

Yeah, that's what I mean; it's not like there's TONS of choices out there. Like, if the hint were 'barbarian with a curved sword' I'd just give up and walk away. Could be any of a thousand paintings. But this one seems more like there's fewer options even available, and I still can't figure it out even being a big Frazetta fan.

Yeah it honestly bothers me that I can't figure it out. Flesh eater is my best guess but there's a lot going against it, mainly the gauntlets, boots and fact that they've had at least one action figure before. The knife, hairstyle, loincloth and earring all work well enough for a flesh eater, with the arrows being weird but not totally out of place.
