I just saw the beautiful Jon Snow Game of Thrones gallery diorama you are doing. I, for one, am very excited. Is it possible (probable, likely even) that this leads to some GoT Selects from you fine folk?? I hope and pray...
DSTChuck: Right now, we’re focusing on the Gallery, but Select would be cool too, we’ll have to see.

Really love the Bruce Lee Kato figure but are you going to release the green hornet figure?
DSTChuck: It is not in the plans at this time, but never say never.

Hi. I am wondering if you might be doing any more Indiana Jones related items this year. The 8 you just put out are great and I have each one on order. I am just curious if there are any more on the way this year. Thanks so much.
DSTChuck: Yes, we have a couple more to show, but I don’t know if both will make it to stores this year.

Do you guys have any interest in picking up the Dark Horse Comics license? Would love to see some non dc/marvel characters in 7-inch form from Hellboy, to The Goon, Usaji Yojimbo, Conan, Buffy ect. I know Toybiz did something called "legendary comic book heroes" over a decade ago that were really cool.
DSTChuck: I don’t think Dark Horse controls most of those licenses, but we’ve worked with some of those in the past, so you never know.

What is the future of DST and The Nightmare Before Christmas?
DSTChuck: If you are asking if we will have more releases, the answer is yes, I believe we will.

Are there any DC dioramas coming soon? The Flash movie would be a good choice.
DSTChuck: Sorry, for the time being we do not have any DC products in the works.

Can you tell us more about the new Muppet figures? Which characters are planned? Would you ever consider a build-a-figure option to get us a character like Sweetums or the other Muppet monsters?
DSTChuck: Sorry, I don’t do product announcements here, I let marketing take care of that on their timeline. But we do have another 2-pack in the works. We have not discussed moving away from 2-packs to one figure and a BAF part.
