Spider-Man 3 Spins Its Web; Captures Sideshow Collectibles and Medicom Toy Exciting New Products Line Will Include Statues, Busts, and Sculpted Dioramas Spider-Man 3 Spins Its Web; Captures Sideshow Collectibles and Medicom Toy Exciting New Products Line Will Include Statues, Busts, and Sculpted Dioramas Thousand Oaks, CA (November, 2006) - Sideshow Collectibles, the world’s premier manufacturer of licensed and proprietary collectibles, has acquired rights to produce collectible products based on the upcoming film, Spider-Man 3. Sideshow, which has produced premium format statues, busts, and dioramas based on the popular Marvel Comics character, will now apply its creative resources to the film characters in a deal that will produce several vivid, intricate recreations, including busts, statutes, and sculpted dioramas. Sideshow Collectibles’ Creative Director, Tom Gilliland, has also announced that Sideshow’s distribution arrangement with Medicom Toy Corporation will be expanded to include Spider-Man 3 licensed pieces as well; 12-inch figures in Medicom Toy’s Real Action Hero series, and vinyl collectible doll figures of several characters from the film. These items will be available online at www.Sideshowcollectibles.com, and through many comics and specialty collectibles retailers. About Spider-Man 3 In the third installment to the most lucrative comic-based film franchise in motion picture history, Peter Parker (Toby Maguire) has finally struck a balance between his devotion to M.J. (Kirsten Dunst), and his secret life as a superhero. But, as Spider-Man basks in the public's adulation, he is pursued by Gwen Stacy (Bryce Dallas Howard), who rivals M.J. for his affections. Fame goes to Peter’s head, and he starts to neglect the people who care about him most. But both his personal life and his public persona are jeopardized when he faces the battle of his life against two of the most feared villains ever -- Sandman (Thomas Haden Church), and Venom (Topher Grace) -- whose unparalleled power and thirst for retribution threatens Peter and everyone he loves.

  • Sideshow Collectibles Expands the Star Wars Universe with 12-Inch Star Wars Action Figures
    SIDESHOW COLLECTIBLES EXPANDS THE STAR WARS UNIVERSE WITH 12-INCH STAR WARS ACTION FIGURES SIDESHOW COLLECTIBLES JOINS WITH HASBRO AND LUCASFILM LTD. Westlake Village, CA - July 14th, 2005 - Sideshow Collectibles announced today the acquisition of the license to manufacture and distribute a line of 12-inch Star Wars action figures. Sideshow plans to provide details of the product line later in 2005 via www.SideshowCollectibles.com, but collectors can look forward to the new 12-inch figures hitting store shelves (and online) in mid 2006. “We are excited to expand our relationship with Lucasfilm, and to begin working with Hasbro,” said Greg Anzalone, CEO of Sideshow Collectibles. “As dedicated fans of both the Star Wars saga and the previous Hasbro product, we aspire to bring a new level of detail and authenticity to the 12-inch figure category.” Kenner, a division of Hasbro, first introduced 12-inch Star Wars figures in 1978. Hasbro reintroduced the format in 1996, producing updated versions of classic characters like Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Darth Vader. “Over the last 10 years, we’ve produced over 150 different 12-inch Star Wars figures,” said Derryl DePriest, Hasbro’s Director of Marketing for the Star Wars brand. “We have chosen Sideshow to carry the torch because they have an unparalleled reputation for producing quality limited edition 12-inch figures.” Sideshow Collectibles announced the 12-inch figure license on the one-year anniversary of the premiere of Sideshow’s first Star Wars offerings. Sideshow began solicitations for a line of high-end Premium Format ¼ Scale Figures at the San Diego Comic-Con International show in July of 2004.

One of such sub-cultures is the world of comic book fans known as cosplayers. Cosplayers dress- up and emulate characters at comic book conventions throughout the United States and the world—a practice known as cosplay, also described as costume-play. Despite the growing popularity of cosplay, little is known about this population. In this research, I set out to answer the following research question: why are women choosing to dress-up and embody these characters (the Gotham City Sirens) when they are often viewed as oversexualized.

  • Sideshow Collectibles Offers Replica from the Movie, Aliens
    Sideshow Collectibles Offers Replica from the Movie, Aliens. “Industry-leading collectible company has acquired the license to distribute authentic replicas based on the cult movie classic”. WESTLAKE VILLAGE, CA — July 2004 – Sideshow Collectibles, designers and manufacturers of collectible products, have acquired the license to produce a new line of collectibles based on the hit film, and now cult science fiction classic, Aliens. The second film in the Alien Legacy series, Aliens (also known as Alien 2, released in 1986 and directed by James Cameron), is the story of an ill-fated search and rescue mission for human survivors on a planet inhabited by an alien species. Aliens is the sequel to the hugely popular film, Alien which reprises Sigourney Weaver’s role as Ellen Ripley, the pragmatic and strong sole-survivor from the mining vessel “Nostromo.” Unlike the single alien in the first film, which kills all inhabitants of the spaceship except for Ripley, Aliens introduces a loathsome colony of Aliens, the fear-invoking extraterrestrial species whose image has become fixed in the annals of popular culture. The Alien films have enjoyed considerable fan interest and have led to numerous sequels, novels, comic books, video games, toy and collectible lines, and a multitude of other types of merchandise. Twentieth Century Fox is also planning on the release of Aliens vs. Predator in August, 2004, the first cross-over for these two iconic sci-fi legacies. Always eager to raise the quality and collectiblity of their products, Sideshow has gone straight to the film source and partnered with the effects wizards of Stan Winston Studios for this new line.
