I think just X amount is allocated to each retailer, equaling the total number. easy peasy. :D

I think just X amount is allocated to each retailer, equaling the total number. easy peasy. :D

But the ES is the total right? Of all the retailers? Not just sideshow? So they can't say sold out can they? For the regular I mean. Or do all the other retailers the deal thru Sideshow and not directly with Jerry?

Not sure if that makes any sense..

EDIT: Actually thinking about it, Sideshow could have (say) 100 and they could put "sold out" after they sell the 100. The ES is still technically 350 regardless. It's not their problem if you can get it somewhere else.....

Oh for sure, it took Sagat EX like what, a month or more too sell out and the ES was only 350 but said TBD? ES up front creates a major rush for these things. See all the anti hype for the Diablo statue as it's an open ES? We do not want that! Great job Jerry love it, keep it up man!

I just want to say none of my posts are criticism of Sideshow.

I fully understand and respect why they do what they do. They are a big company with gigantic overhead and if they can sell 500-1000-2000 then i absolutely understand why they do it.

I am a small fish just making my way and I have very little overhead compared to them. i can afford to make smaller runs and still make what i consider an acceptable profit.

Truth is I cant even imagine what its like to run something as big as Sideshow. Even my last company, SOTA, which made millions per year, was nothing compared to Sideshow.

As I gradually transition to PCSC Direct Sales I will forever be appreciative of all the help and support Sideshow has given over the years.

They really are the good guys, and while none of us are above criticism, I hope the collectors can always remember that without Sideshow, PCSC would have never existed.

Jerry, with your business model 80%, or more, of my hobby dollars are headed in your direction. I do not have the luxury of throwing money at statues that will not retain their retail value. The extraordinarily high ES or open ES that Sideshow is leaning toward is not something I can easily justify throwing my hard-earned pennies into. While the Avengers Hulk is a must-have, and some of the DC pieces are calling me, your PCS SF and MK lines remain at the very top of my list of collectables!

Wow. Just woke up and it's already sold out :itsb:
Am I glad I waited up for this :D


Im trying man...

I really want to shake things up in the collectible world.

I want to get that excitement back that i remember when Sideshow first came on the scene.

You succeeded in that. Loving it!

They were not happy with the ES to begin with. We wont be raising it.

Low ES , announced up front ES is my new business model.
Thank you. You're amazing! Really loving it :D

I totally forgot i need to po this guy, and never thought it will sold out fast....the MK9 is still not sold out...can't believe jerry put this famous one es to 200 and the mk9 for 700......:deadh:

Somehow I don't think you will see edition sizes of 700. That is entirely too many for a non Marvel / DC / Star Wars license.

Chalk it up to a learning experience.

I can surmise that the Klassic Scorpion would be in the same boat if there was an ed. of 200 for the ex. and 700 for the regular. They will be sitting in the warehouse just like the MK9 Scorp.

Still, it doesn't differ that much in the end usually. That and the easier getting replacements (and the fact that we only buy exclusive) is also why we just go for the excl on ssc

Congratulations on a job well done and the huge response, Jerry. The results speak for themselves. You're a cult hero for your approach towards your fanbase. And by doing what you're doing, you got me into the game with Reptile and Scorpion. Let's do this!

If you could re-work the skull head look more like this (just the nose-eye-brow portion. The mask is ridiculous). The nasal cavity looks more like a real skull's where as honestly, the current sculpt is missing that menacing stare.

Just my humble opinion. :)

Agreed but the arms were already made for Reptile so I can see why Jerry would include them with the EX. Even though it's not accurate to the game, it does give us an extra display option. ;)

Sh** you never know mixing and matching the arms might look cool and give a unique look yo uactually like, like having the right arm Reptile's and the left arm Scorpions or vice versa.

I don't remember much about UMK3 since it has been so long but I can almost guarantee somewhere in the game Scorpion has those arms, just look at all the ninjas they are just pallet swaps and even Sub Zero does the exact same pose on the VS screen as Reptile with the arms.

It has less to do with defending him, and more (at least to me) of saying, "dude, don't be an insulting assclown out of left field for no reason."

Scorpion never uses the Reptile arms in UMK3. Sub Zero does on the VS screen but Scorpion does not. Not in game, not in the VS screen, not in the menu, not in the winning screen at the end. No where.

It's not the fact that ppl are stating their opinion which is perfectly fine, I've done my fair share of expressing my feelings towards certain companies/sculpts also

But when someone tells Jerry to "go learn something about MK" it's like saying he knows nothing about his own license he spent money to obtain which is ludacris, just over a pair of arms.

I completely agree (I did say "the mask is awful"), but I was referring to the sinister expression and the skeletal structure surrounding the nasal cavity. That's the kind of menacing presence of Scorpion I would like to see (not that god-awful mask). I'm sure Jerry can make it look meaner. I don't want Reptile to laugh at him when they're matched up.

Explain. My biggest problem with buying statues is the ridiculous customs fees I have to pay.

PCS statues total with shipping is around 360 USD. However, my total for each statue comes to around 530 USD, due to customs fees.

If I can avoid customs fees by buying through Secret Compass, i'd easily do that.

reseller offer 15% discount against sideshow retail price, which means sideshow must offer them at least a 30% haircut otherwise it wont be worthwhile.

So if sideshow offers around 30% discount to resellers, they must make their own money, which means they probably only give jerry 50% of the retail price for the statue.

Just guessing obviously, but that kind sucks for jerry.

I think thats just a normal skull with no mask, and the darker orange color is just the fire reflection from the ground as you can see on the background too, it was probably never intended to be a mask, you can see he still has the white skull color under the nose and cheek bones, why would scorpion use a mask to look exactly like whats covering underneath?

The closest to a skull mask is this, but with human eyes

i kind of always got the impression more that for whatever reason when he skulled out (excess heat perhaps) his normal mask just became a bit transparent

If I can avoid customs fees by buying through Secret Compass, i'd easily do that.

So I know it's been said that the hanging sash is the only thing that is fabric, but is the top just sculpted? In the zoom gallery on sideshow it almost looks like there is stitching on the shoulders between the yellow and black.

Well when you wear a mask, generally it's of someones face, which is just like wearing a face on top of your face :<

Explain. My biggest problem with buying statues is the ridiculous customs fees I have to pay.

PCS statues total with shipping is around 360 USD. However, my total for each statue comes to around 530 USD, due to customs fees.

If I can avoid customs fees by buying through Secret Compass, i'd easily do that.

I have a few guys here on the forum that i act as middle man and none of them have had to pay customs fees. I ship as gift to france, canada,and denmark.

I think thats just a normal skull with no mask, and the darker orange color is just the fire reflection from the ground as you can see on the background too, it was probably never intended to be a mask, you can see he still has the white skull color under the nose and cheek bones, why would scorpion use a mask to look exactly like whats covering underneath?

Ok, I get it now. Before you posted this pic, I totally did not understand the EX head at all. It confused me, but after seeing this, I totally get it. I had completely forgotten his mask did look like this in UMK3.

Quick question: I went for full payment on my Scorpion Klassic, but when do I actually get charged the full amount? I thought that happened as soon as I placed an order, but that didn't seem to be the case.

Quicksilver

they charge the non refundable deposit within 24-48 hours of your confirmed order (order starting with T, not W) then the balance is not charged until the item is ready to ship to you, next year

They are close. I could see Scorp Ex being worth more eventually even with the extra 50 pieces. Reptile was definitely tougher to get, but there are some people that only want a Scorp and Sub to display and they'll be done.

See I don't see Scorpion and Reptile as even in the same ballpark.
There's a total of 550 Scorpions. Sure some are EX with the skull head, but I'd say the overwhelming majority will display him with his regular face and mask. There are only 150 Reptile pieces, period.

Hey lebowski, we need a blanch and a rose, and we're set! :laugh:

Damn, I completely forgot there is no regular version of Reptile. That changes everything. Even though a more popular character, there are way more Scorps in total compared to Reptile.

Right, but it's still RYU. It's the same character, just a variant. There's only one Reptile piece. I guess we'll pick up this conversation in 24 months. :laugh:

Ever since I saw the mysterious Reptile in MK2, and heard the sound of the force ball, hes been my fave of the ninjas, followed by subzero then scorpion. Plus my fave color is green :p I do think that since the only way to get reptile is through the PCS exclusive that he will be worth more then scorp in the long run

Two heads with tongue attachment
