1/4 Scale Vega

Jerry is there any pictures of the actual rod that is running through the base into Vegas leg? It's an amazing piece so I'm really curious what's holding it in place.

SONYA BLADE MKX statue?

Dear Jerry, I am a collector of your MK statues and I decided to sign up to this lovely forum to have a clear definite responce from you concerning this specific MK icon and legend:

After all of these repetition of male and female ninjas statues (always the same characters), will you ever create a statue dedicated to Sonya Blade?

She's basically the Lara Croft/Chun-Li of Mortal Kombat. MK9 and specially MKX pretty much stablished her new prominence and solidified her iconic importance, and her popularity unquestionably skyrocketed as one of the top characters. She's an MK icon and legend. Is Sonya Blade a worthy character in your book? Do you like this badass mother? Will we ever have an impressive statue worthy of her role? Thanks a lot!

Hi PCS - just ordered your fantastic Kitana 1/3 statue. She really needs to be displayed along with her daddy, Shao Kahn. Can you please make a 1/3 Shao Kahn?

If the 1:3 keep selling Shao Kahn is sure on my list, but not until after the 1:4 ships.

We started a Sonya Blade but i didnt like it so put it on pause. Id be very interested in seeing a thread on her and what MK Kollectors would like to see from her statue

I dont have any pics but its a metal rod that goes almost to the knee. We have had a few samples sitting here for many months and no cracking or leaning.

now that doesnt mean a small percentage wont have problems as factory workers are human and humans make mistakes. But it should be very few if any.

Different factory doing Reptile as we didnt want to hold him up waiting for the Scorpion/Sub Zero factory.

They are estimating a June ship for Reptile.

Thanks!
Id love to but they never get back to me

Email Customer Service. They know better than i do.

For sure some collectors have decided to not wait for a Sorceress replacement, so i know we will have at least a few of those. but it will be January.

Post in the customer service thread with your case number. Doris is out today but Il have her check it tomorrow.

We will solve this

PCS should be getting an email from Simply toys in the next day or two. I asked simply toys to email your customer service letting them know one of the Akuma's they're getting is going to go to my papal address instead so hopefully that's what your company needs to make it work.

Thanks Jerry.
International distributors pick up directly from our factories. Its up to the distributor to schedule that. Some move fast and some move slow. For example there is a EU distributor that is just now picking up their Robocops...and that was ready 3 months ago.

Everything for North America gets sent to PCS and then we ship to Big Bad Toy Store, Sideshow, and whoever else may have ordered.

Simply Toys should be emailing me. Not CS. it could take CS days to see that. Simply knows my email

I forget which question it was, but recently someone inquired about MK characters/costumes and how you decide on which ones for which scale. MK9 costumes were brought up and in regards to them you said something along the lines of "if they make sense I'd consider using them."

Having said that, I was curious where the character Skarlet falls. Her one and only appearance (so far) has been in MK9. I'm assuming characters who fall into the Classic line of your statues, but who are also in MK9, would get made in their classic outfits since the MK9 is finished. Does Skarlet fall into the "MK9 line is finished" category, or would she be considered (although highly unlikely) since she has the unfortunate status as an MK9 only character and you possibly considering MK9 designs in certain cases?

I'm sure you have guessed I'd like a statue of her, but I was more curious if it's mildly possible or flat out impossible at this point with MK9's status now fluctuating between finished and used sparingly.

generally speaking we arent planning on doing anything MK9. With Kitana it just worked out that way because I personally feel its her best costume and if we are going to do a 1:3 I want her looking her best.
No plans for Skarlett right now.

jade is a *maybe*

Any chance we can find out how much the Goro 1:3 is gonna be ahead of time? Even a ball park figure so I know whether I can handle Goro and the lady ninjas altogether on payment plans.. Thanks
No less than $1200 (and thats if we give it a big ES) and no more than $1800 (and thats if we go super small...like 100 pcs)

Shame regarding Tekken. Would love to see what you'd do with them. Who would you want to tackle first if you got the chance?

Searched the thread for any other times Tekken has come up. You mentioned DOA as a possibility. I'd have to think that'd be a big hit for obvious reasons. Any development on acquiring that license.

And Soul Calibur? That license hasn't had any love in such a long time. It's been all but forgotten. Such a shame. Great amazing character design? Who would you tackle first if you got that license?

Excellent. Thank you very much for responding, Jerry! I'm so glad to hear that you don't consider this beloved iconic character unworthy of your collection.

Go ahead and PLEASE read the fans positive feedback about a MKX Sonya Blade statue here, in your very forum:



The possibilities are endless. From her "Kiss of Death Pose" to an inspired "Lara Croft" action pose, she would look epic.

Hey Jerry,

Is there a cutoff date in mind for Juri's Senpusha Energy Effect?

Have you ever considered offering optional stands for the 1/3 statues with switch out portraits?

Any chance of seeing Goutetsu in any of the SF lines?

Thanks
