To be honest 16 figures in the span of two years seems incredibly ambitious for a company that's just getting started, mind you these are supposed to be the end all and be all of 1/6 with the best rooted hair in the market, if anything 16 figures is a lot of baggage for what they're promising, they'll all be announced between this year and the next but no way in hell they'll manage to release them all in that time and yeah it's not surprising in the slightest to see them making more DC stuff right out of the gate, they've already said that making side characters and characters from lesser know properties might be a possibility down the line but not now when they need to make money first, tbh I've no interest in most of the IPs and as far as video games I'd mainly want God of War, Mass Effect and perhaps a rooted hair Geralt if they end up releasing good quality stuff.

I don't really get the argument that they need to be doing as many figures as Hot Toys. They shouldn't. There's a reason Hot Toys has a back log of figures that are 2-3 years out from release. Hot Toys announces a new filler Droid/Stormtrooper/Gilgamesh figure every 2 weeks. INART doesn't need to follow that at all.
I would hope INART does only a few figures a year so that their production line up doesn't get backed up and release is quicker. Also helps them put more time and quality into each figure rather than spread themselves too thin.
First season was excellent, second one was a bit convoluted and messy but still enjoyable, season 3 was garbage and season 4 just got it's first trailer and there's not much buzz about it, sadly the show lost what made it special imo, still an Ed Harris man in black and Dolores figures would be cool to see since I love westerns.
Yes, I'm putting it plainly because a lot of people seem to think that 16 figures means there will no delays like with Hot Toys and all of these will be released in the span of two years which is really far from what will likely happen.
I wouldn't consider The Witcher to be a smaller IP, if they want to do video game stuff they could do worse than Geralt but I assume they're going to try negotiating a deal for Sony licenses as well, either way it's a non issue to me, I'm satisfied with the Geralt I have even if it has flaws, most of the other video game figures I want are already in the works as well.
I get why you did it. Red Skull and no Agent Smith?
So are these all articulated 1/6 figures ? Or possibly some 1/6 statues ?? Just out of interest.
I don't know, Amazon has their LOTR series coming up, that will bring huge focus and hype onto LOTR generally. Along with it a lot of new customers as well as probably pushing many existing collectors with Asmus to upgrade some of them.
From what I know the InArt line is all 1/6 figures. The 1/6 statues are by Queen.
