Previously, DF and Moore collaborated on two projects: a bust of Spider-Man's Mary Jane, and a diorama recreation of the classic X-Men scene with Wolverine, tracking prey in the sewers of NYC. Both pieces sold out immediately.
Moore’s experience in the industry has ranged from sculptures and busts to action figured, produced under the Moore Action Collectibles name. During the heyday of MAC, Moore produced figures based on characters from Chaos!, Top Cow, Kabuki, and <i>Buffy the Vampire Slayer</i>.
The new partnership will give Moore access to licenses for merchandise currently held by Dynamic Forces, including : American Flagg!, Kabuki, Liberty Meadows, Witchblade, The Darkness, and other Top Cow characters, as well as Ash from the <i>Army of Darkness.</i>

He also happens to be a genius when it comes to taking 2-D and turning it into 3-D," said Nick Barrucci, President of Dynamic Forces. "We've had a great relationship for over seven years, and this new chapter will be even more dynamic!"
"Nick and I have worked together on some terrific projects over the years," added Moore. "And I couldn't be happier to expand our relationship to bring fans and collectors what we hope will be some of the finest character sculptures ever."
According to Barrucci, more details, including projects planned under the new arrangement, will be available in the weeks to come.
