[Quicksilver]

Has anyones PCS yellow EX shipped yet?

[FROBAY]

I will post a yellow pic the minute he gets here. Im still waiting for the Sideshow Reg version.

[StatueHunter75]

So I was inspecting every angle of my Blanka blue exclusive bust and don't ask why the hell I noticed this (ESPECIALLY YOU BARBARIAN) but is it me or is Blankas left nipple hard or sticking out more while the other one is more flat or soft???? LOL!!! Too funny!!!

lol actually I looked at a couple pics aaand it seems to be the case indeed!

[THE_BEAST]

Im very happy with it :)

[jetfuel]

Something about this line just doesnt do it for me. Congrats though on such a low run.

[Andrew]

Nice, Beast. Looks like there is good shading around the muscle. How was it shipped? USPS, UPS, or Fed Ex?

[FROBAY]

CONGRATS BEAST. NICE PIECE!!!

I guess you live closer to Jerry, I probly wont see mine till monday or so.

[THE_BEAST]

...

[dechirico7]

So, there are three versions of this bust?

[Quicksilver]

this is a great sculpt, the yellow version is just awesome

[THE_BEAST]

So, there are three versions of this bust?

yup

[Barbarian]

Kickass, Beast! Congrats! Was hoping to get mine today, but probably will tomorrow.

[StatueHunter75]

Sadly it has a couple small pieces of something (probally polystone) rattleing around inside of it. Im still very happy with it though :)

Beast I have the same problem with some piece of polystone rattling around inside my blue exclusive one also. But there's nothing wrong with the outside at all. I'll be posting the video tomorrow.

Look forward to the pictures and reviews friend! Thanks

Does PCS have any plans to continue with this line? Any announcements about who would be next, etc?

More coming !

[Ultrapunch]

Here are a couple to show the size comparison between the two, didnt have much natural light today, so excuse the flash.

Different bases?

[Ultrapunch]

The bases are pretty comparable, but yes the blanka one has a few extra "rings" and stands a little taller, although with akuma's hairdo, the total height is pretty equal between the two. Probably done for this reason?

Edit: Actually its just the bottom ring is a little thicker on 2nd inspection. Also one other note. This bust has a real fierce look when viewed from a higher steeper angle, straight on or viewed from lower you dont see the brow that really gives blanka his pissed off look. So probably will be displaying this guy on a lower shelf

[Andrew]

Cool comparison shots of the exclusives.

[Andrew]

More coming !

Patience is a pain in the tail! So the next bust and diorama news will be October-ish?

Also, whatever happened to your mini Dee Jay figure?

[Old Snake]

I remember hearing about an Oro, long ago. I would get mini statues of characters that I wouldn't get in 1/4 scale.

The busts look great, but I'm just not into them. I'm tight enough on space as it is, and the PFs win out. I would get a Ryu though, maybe even Cammy.

I like September-ish better.

More like end of Oct to see next bust.

The mini figure line is dead. I dont know if you watched the uproar over the $60 price on some companies 6" Thundercats statues but thats pretty close to what the SF ones would have had to retail for.

Understandable about the mini figures. Sad though. :(

Looking forward to the bust pics. News on the diorama?

Was Dee Jay the only one that you sculpted so far? And can we see some pics of it?

Totally understandable, but a smart move. In fact, I doubt I could get behind a mini line, when I can't get behind the bust line. In this economy it's best to focus on the definitive, big ticket stuff, and try to draw in the largest crowd possible. Any sub-lines would fragment customers and budgets.

Aw mannn those look so great... that's too bad then.
I, for one, would've loved a 6" $60 statue line... It's not the size of the statue it's the sculpting job itself and those look great.

Either way, really curious about the next bust...
I was on the fence about the busts but if this line has legs (no pun intended...aha) then I'm on board.

:rimshot:

A collection of these busts would resemble something like the close-up portraits in the character selection screen. It would be an incredible sight.

cool, thx

[Barbarian]

Got my yellow a couple days ago. It's friggin' perfect in every way. Great sculpt, paint and attitude. Menacing and creepy. I love it! Just moved, so I am not too sure where my camera is. I'll post some pics when I find it.

[Quicksilver]

its cool that he's bigger then akuma, im looking forward to getting the green and yellow blankas

[FROBAY]

Got my yellow and I have to say so far its my favorite of the colors. The eyes are wicked cool. My regular edition should be in at the end of the week.

I will post some when my reg gets here, so I can post all 3 together.

Hey look at this auction for the Yellow
http://cgi.ebay.com/Blanka-Bust-PCSC-Exclusive-Limited-50-Sideshow-/120621594048?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item1c159b75c0

The piece is bad-ass, but im not sure its $400 bad-ass, at least not yet. This will be fun to watch.

[THE_BEAST]

Anyone get their blankas yet???

Its already had 3 offers. Sure there from the same person, but that ebayer must really want it.

[Andrew]

Man, I'm still waiting! Living across the country stinks when it ships from Cali. I can only imagine living in Europe.

[OuttaSight]

Most of them were sent last week...Andrews and a couple others went out today.

That is all of them except for people who havent paid.

[Awesome]

How many haven't paid yet? and will you definitely be putting the ones that aren't bought up on ebay?

:buttrock:

[Old Snake]

So, with 3-4 busts planned for next year, who do you guys think they would be? Is Jerry sculpting all of them?

[Averone]

Jerry, what colors remain?
I may get one.

[OuttaSight]

How many haven't paid yet? and will you definitely be putting the ones that aren't bought up on ebay?

9 people have paid a deposit but never responded to any of my emails about the balance and its almost October when I will put them on EBay.

I think 45 days is plenty of time isnt it ?



So, with 3-4 busts planned for next year, who do you guys think they would be? Is Jerry sculpting all of them?

Right now my plan is to sculpt all of the busts myself. I enjoy the scale and the realistic interpretations.



Jerry, what colors remain?
I may get one.

See above for how many yellow I *might* have if none of those people respond soon.

I think I have a couple reg and EX AP's still.

[AstroWho]

Got mine a few days ago....

[Andrew]

The eyes on this bust look impressive judging by the pictures.

[StatueHunter75]

They're very nicely painted. Both mine are at least.

[ramobo]

Got mine today with small chip on the chest hair, its minor so I'll probably touch it up with one of those Gundam paint markers

http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh125/necromango/stuff/blanka.jpg

[THE_BEAST]

R.I.P.

[Old Snake]

When will we get a sneak on the next bust, Jerry?

I am most looking forward to Ryu, Guile, Bison, and Cammy. I will get Akuma soon.

For variants of the above, I'd love to see Ryu's P2 (gray/blue), Guile in navy blue or desert camo w/ Charlie dogtags, and Bison in his inverted colors white with red pauldrons.

What a strange place to get a chip

[bebohawk]

Jerry can you tell who will be next in this line I really hope in Vega

[OuttaSight]

Jerry can you tell who will be next in this line I really hope in Vega

Im working on two different ones simultaneously...so not sure which will be done first.

Both are male.

[SARFARAZ]

Ryu and ken, lol

[bebohawk]

Awesome!!
Jerry is this line will be the same as the Pf line you will make the originals first ??? If not I demand a Dan the mothef$&&ing man !!! :radior: :radior:

[THE_BEAST]

Is evil ryu going to happen, or will it be a color variant?

[SARFARAZ]

Just like shin akuma, ryu's ex would be evil ryu.

[Andrew]

Im working on two different ones simultaneously...so not sure which will be done first.

Both are male.

:laugh:

That's no hint. Might as well say; "Both are World Warriors".

[Old Snake]

I would prefer a gray/blue P2 Ryu over Evil Ryu. Since these are all sculpted, with already low runs, a repainted third run shouldn't be a problem.

I'm not sure, but for some strange reason I highly doubt the next two are Cammy and Chun Li. :rimshot:

[THE_BEAST]

Are you ever going to make an Oro bust?

[Spartacus]

Are you ever going to make an Oro bust?

Beast! How was your Birthday?
What did you get??:p

[Averone]

You can add another to my growing SF collection!
Lovein it!
Just added this Monster! Im getting addicted to these busts. Jerry slow down man! JK :)
