Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Just seems that the releases are due to multiple liscences and multiple lines for each with not enough backing to get the work done. Unlike Sideshow, PCSC is a small studio and doesn't have the artistic resources that a larger company would.Could be wrong, Just what it seems like to me.

I would ALMOST like to believe that. However, Syco is a pretty small company to, much smaller than PCS. Yet, they find a way to pump out PF's like they do it in their sleep.
I believe in the "quality over quantity" moto also. But I dont agree with using that as pass to drag your feet.
I understand the delays and the whole chinese new year thing. But honestly, 1 PF a year....I could commission the entire line of MK in 1:4 and have them finished in a year. Done by sculptors that have WAY more projects than PCS has on the go....simultaneously.
That was actually my plan last year, then just before I put out the cash to have them done I hear that PCS is doing a MK line. So I figured I'd hold off and get the licenced stuff instead. Had I known it would be at this rate I would have gone ahead with my original plans.
Not trying to give Jerry a hard time, but he has to recognize that the demand for these pieces exists here and now....not 10 years from now.
No word of a lie, a few months back I completely forgot I had even PO'd this Scorpion PF. Thats how much time has gone by. Their is truth to the saying "out of sight, out of mind". And to be honest, the only company keeping this line in my sight is Syco.
I know Jerry has already mentioned this line will be picking up steam. Forgive my ignorance, but I'll believe it when I see it.

Even if I had all the resources in the world , I would never release as much MK product as Syco is. I think its bad for the license and bad for the market.
Thats just my opinion
However , I would like to release 4 various MK pcs per year, and thats my plan for this year. There are now 7 sculpts in progress from props to 1:1 busts to the 1:4 scale and Diorama.

Prop and diorama probably wont hit until 2013. So, 1X 1:1 bust, 1X 1:4 Klassic , 2 X 1:4 MK9 (not including Scorpion)

To chime in - I have always believed PCS is the Hot Toys of the statue companies - Jerry expects perfection. I do believe some event/s may have caused a slow-down, but I have no doubt pace will pick-up from here - we've seen what PCS can do.

Sweet.. and they have all been in the works for a while from passionate talent..
for fun from that list I will guess: sub-zero bust, sub-zero klassic, Shao Kahn MK9, Raiden MK9
with a possible Mileena, but went back to the scrap boards to create Kitana

Could very well be.. I remember in a MK interview (I think it was MKO), Jerry said one of the next releases would be a lady
I have been waiting an eternity for a decent Shao Kahn.. the presence that piece could command..
