I Just bought your Buffy figure and it’s so stunning that I keep Wondering if you are planning to do other characters like Willow or Spike.

Is the Lord of the Rings license solely action figures? Or can you guys make busts/statues? I know you guys work with Gentle Giant Studios and their old LOTR busts are some of the best! They made a really awesome Sauron and their Legolas is probably has the best likeness to Orlando Bloom in statue form, even Weta can't nail his likeness.
DSTChuck: Yes , we are able to make more than action figures and we hope to show more categories soon.

Will there be more X-men Action Figure releases in the near future?
DSTChuck: We are always looking to X-Men characters for inspiration , and we do have another one in the Select line, we will be showing soon.

Will there be any plans to make Sesame Street articulated figures that are similar to the muppet ones you guys made? I’ve seen quite a few people talk about it and want them to be real and I feel like they would sell really well if you guys did make them.
DSTChuck: I am sorry, there are no plans at this time for Sesame Street figures.

I was wondering if your company was also going to make anime figures?
DSTChuck: We have done some in the past, and certainly we would not rule them out in the future if the right opportunity presented itself.

Good afternoon, after the van damme diorama bloodsport, diamond select will make another statues of van damme or only the bloodsport?
