Eric Sosa to get X-Men and Marvel license

[Rasp Lame]

I noticed the other day on Sosa's facebook page he alluded to such. How cool is that! I'd kill for more X-Men statues, even 1/6 scale. Here's hoping for a global license a la Bowen Designs old contract.

A link to a recent interview Sosa did as well:

Somebody has to fill the Bowen void until 2020

hopefully these are painted, complete statues and not kits.

didn't he sculpt kits before?

 

[frenchyoutoo]

Im sure these will be painted. Looks like thats they way he is going

 

[aa909]

This should be good!!

 

[AC_808]

Oh hell yea!!

In 1/6, 1/5 or 1/4 scale would be awesome!

 

[Rulk]

probably complete the x-men line before sideshow

I love his work; the Kotobukiya Archangel statue is one of my all time favorites. I'm very excited to see more X-Men statues from him!

Maybe Randy could do some sculpting for Sosa until then. Bit of a role reversal.

 

[ambasah]

he is one of the top talents in the industry. these will sell like hotcakes in any scale.

He does both now, but he appears to be shifting more towards selling prepainted pieces.

 

[AvidCollector]

Can't wait for these

If these aren't unpainted kits, I'm in. Need a Nightcrawler in 1/6 scale and a bunch of Byrne era X-MEN in 1/4 scale.

 

[4renzy]

oohh Bryne Xmen please Eric. This is good news.

I don't think he's doing kits anymore, I think I remember him saying something about lack of interest and also poor profit margins...

 

[xforce]

Kits don't sell anywhere as well as complete painted and ready to display

May be more expensive than SS like the SF are compared to PCS.

I hope this is true. He has to make Storm first. Finish the X-Men line up.

Oh hell yea!! Absolutely!

From the X-Men poster. The missing characters are Ice Man, Beast, Storm, Jean, and Professor X.

I would go:

1. Storm

2. Ice Man

3. Jean

4. Beast

5. Professor X
