That would be a big bummer if so...

Woo-hoo! After skipping last week, no SDCC Hikari, re-hashes for a few weeks prior and the late drop today I was beginning to wonder...

Yeah after the first part of 2016 had mountains of new sculpts and colorways it's really slowed down. Was starting to get a little worried :-k

That drop in production was cause by all the SDCC stuff that had to go into production for the quick turn to be ready for the con more then likely.

Each new piece sells out in hours to retailers on Hikari.

Hikari is no muss no fuss .. an easy sell out every time on the limited edition quantities.

This year has been great for Hikari. The smaller edition sizes seems to have helped the sales.... but it's definitely still up to the character and the fan base.

The past couple of sculpts haven't been my thing, but I LOVE Hikari, and hope they keep it going for a long time. I have felt a little less Hikari love lately, but maybe, like Ron said, after SDCC, there will be a resurgence (and not the independence day kind).

I've been wondering about this. I think we have 4-5 weeks so far this year without a Hikari Friday.

Harley Quinn last week was a pleasant surprise. I hear there will be SW coming. I'm hoping to see 6-8 new molds before the end of the year.

As long as they aren't storm troopers, then yeah I think that'd be cool.
