F4F QA 101 Varia Suit Samus with Lights On

After the mega-ton announcements and launch of the Conker’s Bad Fur Day Definitive Edition statue in last week’s milestone F4F Q&A #100, you might think Alex and Chockles won’t have much to think about this week.

WHO would likely be the second character in the Yakuza line if Kiryu sells well?

WHY is F4F putting a new and stronger emphasis on busts?

COULD we see a Life-Size Sparx and/or color variants of Sparx?
