I was at NJCC too, talked a lot to both Marauders and Boss Fight.
Big news from Marauders main dude was that they might postpone the Vietnam kickstarter after a second WW2 kickstarter because they have a lot of stuff ready to go for that. He also gave me a free test shot of a new female bald sculpt they have coming. Will adds pics of most of their new stuff and tooling and paint masters and accessories. Marauders John is a good dude.
Talked to a few different (all very nice) BFS people, semi-convinced one of the sculptors to pitch a Cadillacs & Dinosaurs line.
Boss Fight is going to be carrying ZombieLab in their online store, but that ZL has already nearly sold through their entire run so there won't be a ton available, so don't wait around.
They're not in a rush to do the sci fi series. Not even currently on the official schedule although next year was mentioned.
Gladiator set as you see in the other guy's pics is fully painted, out around January IIRC. It's a trial balloon to see if these painted accessories do well compared to the plain unpainted ones.
Asked about the rise of Chinese 1:18 and they said they were told by their contacts in HK that Hot Toys has priced itself out of the collectors market there and their sales are not as good anymore, and that apparently the thinking is the next toy collector craze will be 1:18. So good stuff for us to be sure.
