Heres some info you guys might like:
I originally tried to get the license from MGM a few years ago when i was producing toys. I fought hard to get it but lost it to Sota at the last minute. Its funny how for years no one cared but then at once we were both going for it.
I met personally with the chiodos two years ago and told them what happened. They were also upset that Sota didn\'t really do much with the license and the sculpts were eh. So we discussed doing larger scale stuff and producing a book for them (i have a friend who is a publisher) with the clown illustrations etc. I haven\'t been in contact with them recently but i plan on checking in again with them soon.
They expressed a lot of interest in all the projects i had going at the time. Personally now, I think they should go with sid show and do some really nice busts but i\'m not sure if sid show would go for it (not a big enough license maybe?). I have factory hookups and could get blank vinyl heads made, factory paint ups on these would be a lot and might not look as good as they want.
Maybe after the first of the year i\'ll give Stephen a call or an email and follow up and see where things are going with any new Klowns stuff. I even had an investor who wanted to fund the sequel at one point lol!!
