I really don't know how they do this.
This EX is insane and its all for $375! Their prices are soooooo good.
It amazes me the people complaining on stream its like "are you looking at the same thing as me? do you know how much other companies are charging?"
On a 12 month payment plan its $28 a month.....lol i am so tempted.....

A lot of facebookers are incredibly stupid. The more Ive gotten involved in some of these groups it reminds me why I got off facebook to begin with. Honestly my hat is off to F4F for being able to take a lot of the criticisms with a smile- and there are very few companies that will go back and forth from the drawingboard as many times as they do to get a piece right for as many people as possible.
Never played Crash myself. Switchout eyes are a pretty cool idea.

People not in the hobby tend to equate it to cheap $10-20 action figures they are familiar with rather than sculptures. Is part of why they aren't in the hobby.

Oh i know this guys, i've made it clear in the F4F club and to Alex more than a few times lol.
Guess i'm too impatient for people to catch up haha, new people coming into that club all the time and it is nice to see people saying "i got the crash PVC and then joined" i think F4F are doing it right and doing an amazing job of it, i just wish people would get up to speed quicker lol.

@DeadGhostKnight: I know how you feel. It can be very frustrating sometimes...
I wonder what you all think of the exclusive. A lot of people are currently complaining about it. 'The backdrop is just cardboard', 'The fruits should be bigger', 'The crates should be 3D full resin and bigger', ... Personally I think all these extra's are neat, especially considering the price point. I'm just wondering if I'm wrong for getting worked up on this, in my eyes, whining of those people.

The exclusives are not bad and it’s the same price as the reg. HT include cardboard backdrops with some of their figures. I can understand the complaints about the flat boxes when you look at the Tanooki and Cat Mario statue exclusive blocks.

Yeah but those were the only extra parts (apart from the scarf for Tanooki). With Crash you get the two eye sets and the separate tongue in both versions and the backdrop, fruit pieces and boxes in the exclusive for the same price. Don't get me wrong, I would have loved a box like the Mario's have for Crash and would have gladly paid extra but I get why they didn't. I just don't get why people get so worked up about it. If you don't use it, either order the regular or let it stay in the box. A lot of companies offer lamer exclusives and don't listen to their fans. I wonder if that's why people like to complain, they're spoiled? :p

Not a huge fan of the EX honestly. and I like Crash, wouldn't mind one in my collection but I don't know that I can wing a 1:4 one. I would have liked him 1:6 so he could hang out with Jax :)

I think the EX is worth it just for the fruit to put on the base, if you don't like the box displays leave them in the box, EX is the same price as the Reg, F4F have great shipping prices and most areas have a warehouse so you won't get charged import fees, EX is a no brainer imo.
Also those boxes were pretty thick acrylic i wouldn't be surprised if they change and look much better once Crash releases, there's been a lot of talk on the group about this piece and while i think criticisms of the actual statue and base are petty and i don't think anything needs to change i'm pretty sure we'll see changes on the EX box standees.

I don’t want/need crates. The only place crates has is on a diorama, this clearly isn’t it.
I hope this sells well so that we can get coco and a polar bear exclusive. Dammit I need that polar bear in my life.
As a whole this piece was well priced. The exclusive might be abit lackluster imo and I would prefer not getting the acrylic crates to keep it easier on the shipping prices. It didn’t look all that good when you put the backdrop and the acrylic boxes with the statue all togth. In fact, the backdrop goes better with the pvc crash.
I’m only going for the exclusive because of the fruits, the fruits CAN be abit bigger but it isn’t a deal breaker for me. At silver membership I get another 10% in reward points effectively making this 340 before shipping. That is a HELLA bargain.

Hey guys, I'm new to F4F and never actually bought anything made by them before. I was planning for Guts to be my first piece, but I might buy Crash too, since it is one of my favourite video game franchises ever and I'm seeing this statue just now.
My questions are, for how long the preorder will remain open? After this, I will have to jump on the waitlist, right?
Do we have any more statues confirmed for the line?
Thanks in advance for any help!

I really depends on the piece but for statues in general if you like it, buy it because it could sell out at any point.
No other piece has been confirmed afaik but Cortex at least is almost certain.

I had to pick it up myself. Day one! The price is just too good to pass up. I'd love for them to make a Cortex to go with him. Maybe with a crystal as an exclusive.
