- February 19th, 2015, 10:00 am#4827359We never aim for only online distribution, aside from the occasional online-retailer exclusive. Our distributor is Diamond Comic Distributors, and they sell to nearly 3,000 comic shops and toy retailers around the world. Some of those are online-only, including Amazon, but most are brick-and-mortar or a combination. I believe that Hastings and Toys"R"Us (N.A.) will both be on board, although TRU will probably not include the diorama pieces (see our Universal Monsters line).
Not 100% sure about our international rights, but we distribute our GB items through Diamond Comics UK, so I would at least expect to see them in UK stores, including Forbidden Planet. Probably wherever you have seen our Minimates or vinyl banks.
And I should clarify, paint-only variants on the Ghostbusters are possible, but I do not think they would be part of the main line. More likely exclusives that are optional purchases, and not necessary for the diorama. Our Stargate line did something similar. Repeated Ghostbusters in the 12-figure series should be fairly different.
