Bruce Lee’s Legacy Lives On With New Products from Diamond Select Toys

Categories will include Select action figures, Gallery PVC dioramas, Vinimates vinyl figures, Minimates mini-figures, D-Formz vinyl figures, resin busts and statues. The first item to be offered will be a Gallery PVC diorama depicting him in action, executing one of his trademark forms.

Lots of designwork and discussion have gone into making our offerings unlike any Bruce Lee products that have been seen before.“

Bruce Lee Collectibles Coming by Diamond Select Toys
Great news. DST should look into 1/6 scale also....but im buying
Hopefully that includes the green hornet. because id kill for a 6 inch figures of them
this is good news cause im a bruce fan but since DST does 7" figs dont know how the scale thing will work since bruce was on the shorter side. its kinda funny cause just the other day i almost bought the SHF bruce lee w/yellow track suit but didnt pull the trigger
I'll be really interested to see what looks they go for. A The Boss Bruce Lee has been high on my wanted list since Figma and SHF did theirs.
