Sideshow Collectibles must have decided that today was a slow day and it needed shaking up, because Sideshow hit up collectors today with a huge surprise: an in-stock and ready-to-ship, totally unannounced, exclusive White Black Widow Premium Format Figure stature variant–limited to just 200 pieces produced! While it’s not the most limited Marvel Premium Format statue ever released, it’s certainly among the shortest runs. And if you didn’t order it in the two and a half hours it was available, you’re out of luck–the Premium Format Black Widow White Edition is now sold out!

It’s not exaggeration to say that Sideshow Collectibles put thousands upon thousands of dollars worth of Marvel Premium Format Figures up for order in 2014. But of all the Marvel statues Sideshow solicited last year, there’s one that I’ve been anticipating the arrival of more than other. And though there are still some available for order, he’s finally arrived: the Sideshow Red Hulk Premium Format Figure statue has now been released!

While I didn’t think that “Thor The Dark World” was bad, per se, it was definitely the lowest-quality Marvel Studios movie released thus far. Even so, there are three things I love about “Thor The Dark World” (in this order): Natalie Portman, Loki, and Thor’s new costume. Though I would have preferred the other two, Sideshow has crafted a killer new statue for one of these aspects: the Sideshow Exclusive Thor The Dark World Premium Format Figure goes up for order this week!
Continue Reading →What’s red and green and grey, weighs over 110 pounds, and will cost you almost three thousand dollars? If you guessed the quintet of Sideshow Hulk Premium Format Figures put up for order over the course of the past year, you’re correct! Wait, did I say “quintet”…? That’s right! Today, Sideshow Collectibles astonished the Marvel collecting world (and made any Marvel Premium Format collecting completists left cry) when they revealed a totally unexpected new item–the Sideshow Exclusive King Hulk Premium Format Figure statue is now up for order!
Continue Reading →The once-legendary Dr. Doom’s star has fallen a lot in recent years. Oft considered the greatest Marvel villain, Dr. Doom has been surpassed in the public’s eyes by characters such as Loki, Magneto and Thanos receiving more attention in modern movies and comic storylines. Even so, Dr. Doom is an all-time-great supervillain and beloved by hardcore comic book fans the world over. And that’s why he’ll also be Sideshow’s next major villain sculpture released–the Sideshow Exclusive Dr. Doom Premium Format Figure statue is now up for order!
Continue Reading →The Rule of Three is a writing principle that states that things that come in threes are inherently better than individuals or pairs of things. That rule must be what Sideshow Collectibles had in mind when they decided to go ahead with not one, not two, but three new Hulk Premium Format Figures in 2014! We’ve had the Sideshow Premium Format Red Hulk and Green Hulk statues go up for sale in the past two months, but if those weren’t for you, perhaps the third time will be the charm–the Sideshow exclusive Grey Hulk Premium Format statue is now up for order!
Continue Reading →When it comes to the sheer amount of high-end collectibles being released for a brand, it looks like Marvel is the new Star Wars! The number of statues, sixth scale figures and other high-end products being released in 2014 is truly staggering, and Sideshow Collectibles has become increasingly ruthless this year. Along with thousands of dollars worth of other “must have” Sideshow Marvel statues, Sideshow has another major release on the way: the Sideshow Daredevil Premium Format Figure statue is now up for order!
Continue Reading →While the Incredible Hulk is one of the most popular and in-demand characters in the Marvel Universe, not every collector has an extra two grand lying around with which to purchase the original Sideshow Hulk Premium Format Figure statue off the aftermarket. Sideshow Collectibles finally seems to have realized that fact, and is preparing to give Hulk aficionados another crack at a Green Hulk Premium Format Figure this year, as the Sideshow Exclusive Premium Format Hulk statue is up for order as of this afternoon!
Continue Reading →I’m an X-Men guy at heart, and “my” iconic X-Men are the Jim Lee X-Men designs that made up the 90’s X-Men squads. It was the 1990’s X-Men cartoon series that really got me hooked on reading superhero comics, and as such, I’m a total mark for any new X-Men collectibles from that era.
So when Sideshow announced their next statue, I was thrilled as an X-Men collector but despairing for my wallet–the exclusive edition of the Sideshow Premium Format Jean Grey statue is now available for order!
Continue Reading →With Marvel hype reaching a fervor pitch with this week’s release of the Captain America: The Winter Soldier movie in theaters, Sideshow Collectibles is aiming to capitalize from a totally different angle–that of Cap’s Avengers comrade, Thor! Not only is the very cool Thor Frog going up this week, but the Sideshow exclusive edition of their all-new Premium Format Thor Modern Age statue is now available for order! Ever wanted a statue of Thor wielding a sword…? Well, now you can have one…
Continue Reading →This will be tough to believe, but we haven’t seen a single new Marvel comics-based Sideshow Premium Format Figure put up for sale since the end of 2013! Sideshow has been quiet, but now we can see the reason why: they’ve been working on something big. And by “big”, I mean “jaw droppingly-huge”! Sideshow Collectibles has not one, not two, but three Hulk Premium Format statues lined up for 2014, and the Red Hulk Premium Format Figure Exclusive Edition Statue is now up for order on the Sideshow website!
Continue Reading →Earlier this week, Gentle Giant Ltd. announced and put up for order their quarter-scale Captain America: The Winter Soldier Stealth Captain America statue. Never one to be outdone by other companies, Sideshow Collectibles has now officially announced their own upcoming 1/4 Captain America The Winter Soldier Premium Format Figures statues! And while photos aren’t available yet, Sideshow did let us know some interesting details…
Continue Reading →Sideshow defied expectations last month, when they chose to put the Premium Format Captain America Allied Charge on Hydra statue we hadn’t previously seen up for pre-order before the new Red Skull Premium Format Figure we’d seen in its complete form during the summer.
Red Skull fans can rejoice now, though, as the opportunity to drop another $370 is upon them–the Sideshow Exclusive Red Skull Premium Format Figure is now up for order!
Continue Reading →Last week Sideshow teased a new version of their super-popular Deadpool Premium Format Figure for Black Friday, and they were true to their word–the X-Force Deadpool Premium Format Figure is now up for order!
X-Force Deadpool’s got a different color costume, different hands and accessories, a different base, and one less head! In some ways I think this is an improvement over the original Deadpool–and in some ways, not so much…
Continue Reading →It’s been a little while since Sideshow Collectibles has produced a new Captain America statue, but with the new “Captain America: The Winter Soldier” movie coming to theaters in early 2014, the time has arrived for an all-new Premium Format Captain America. Easily the most detailed and visually impressive statue of the character that Sideshow Collectibles has ever developed, the Sideshow Exclusive Captain America Allied Charge on Hydra Premium Format Figure is now up for order!
