PrototypeZ 1/4 scale SF kits

[High Lord Apocalypse]

Alright PrototypeZ, lets get some info on the 1/4 scale line now that other line is on the second character. Some info on ETA, first couple in the lineup, edition size, cost, anything. :dork:

[GenoToys]

Thats what I'm waiting for! SF 1/4 scale is where it's at!

[Andrew]

I've personally never understood the interest in 1/4 scale. They're damn huge, über expensive, and heavy as f***!

Sure, they look good, but so does 1/6. If Erick does 1/4 Street Fighter kits, I could only foresee myself getting one or two for the reasons listed above.

The larger pieces command more attention/ more eye catching, has more detail and the part you don't like is exactly what the 1/4 scale collectors love- the large size.

I agree. I have a few 1/4's, and I think they're just too big, aswell as being heavy as all hell. 1/6 is perfect for me. I wouldn't mind some Dioramas though.

[Andrew]

Oh yeah, I'm fully aware I'm in the minority. But I've got my 1/6 Street Fighter line, so I'm happy!

[GenoToys]

I like the size of 1/4 scale...If money wasn't an issue I think most ppl would choose 1/4 scale.

[dark_spidey]

If I were to collect 1/4 kits, I would only buy 4-5 of them.

With 1/6, I plan on getting all 17 SF2 characters if they're made

[High Lord Apocalypse]

i'm sure the 1/4 scale will be much more limited than 150 as it would be harder to sell due to cost.

[dark_spidey]

Also, once pro painted, the final price for these would be around 1k. Too rich for my blood
That's why I need to start learning how to paint^^

[Vince-Vell]

Im only interested in key characters, so if its 1/4 rose, dan or akuma id get them!.

For what companies like Sideshow & PCS charge for their statues one would expect high quality pieces.
Instead we are treated to this:

Bigger isn't always better, it's just bigger...which is why I liquidated a majority of my sideshow/pcs collection because once the "wow" factor wears off all you have is a very hollow feeling. nowadays I only chase down the most detailed statues regardless of scale.

I would love to see PrototypeZ hit the 1/4 scale market but for now I am perfectly happy coppin' (buying) there 1/6 line...

you never know the 1/6 could rise to that price, with only 150 out there and many different people painting it up and not many selling them off could topple 1k. :itsb:

Yeah I'm sure some will command even more than that

[Artsta]

Yeah I have no interest in 1/4 either.

1. No place to put something that big.

2. 1/6 is awesome because action poses are possible! 1/4 would just be museum poses which to me would be meh.

If I ever did partake in something like this, it would only be for Ryu.

[Luminous]

I'll stick with 1/6 for these kits. It's already going to cost me a fortune.

[Ryu]

I'd love to have a 1/4 of certain characters but 1/6th is the best scale for this at this point.

[High Lord Apocalypse]

inorder to guarantee a good start, i hope protypeZ starts off with akuma, ryu, sagat, chunli. that should be enough to hook some people in for the long haul. PCS is just under 1/4 scale so these should be larger than PCS pieces.

Much larger! :drinking:

[ReplicantSavior]

Did one of the Prototypez guys say that 1/4 wouldn't happen till the 1/6 line was almost finished?

[BarrelCannon]

Meh I'm fine with scales being different from the pcs line as long as they are trying to be consistent. I know there will be people who would want to mix 1/4 proto sf kits with pcs sf pfs. I personally just want amazing individual pieces and ill be happy.

[tonyo09]

I would like to have 1/4 scale statues, but as others pointed out, this might be too expensive and space will be an issue. Maybe prototypez can limit their release to 2 1/4 characters per year? for at least our moolah can catch up with the growing expense

[supermetroid]

Just opened up my Sagat to check out (will have to get painted later) and this guy is HUGE! Idk if I'd want an actual 1/4 statue that would dwarf PCS and SS 1/4 statues. Sagat looks awesome and the base is huge, I couldn't imagine how big a true 1/4 Sagat would be lol.

[ZenLogikos]

LOL. You don't have to imagine. Sagat is 7'4". Simple math means a 1/4 statue would be 22 inches. Enjoy that knowledge responsibly!

[High Lord Apocalypse]

Hey E, any info?
