Hi Jerry
Will Reg Sagat's head be glued on?????
It would be nice if it wasn't in case someone wanted to put the EX head on it

Borrow money from a pessimist, they don't expect it back.

The question you are trying to ask is, should we be making them more limited so they increase in value at a quicker pace.

As a business, we need to capitalize on the popularity of the Chun Li's and Sagats as that profit is what allows us to make the less popular characters. If we limited Sagat to 500 total pcs then the next time we have a flop, it would REALLY hurt us. By selling 800 Sagats we have now created a buffer to take a risk on a less popular character.

Also, I firmly believe that its not IF Guile and Bison will increase in value...its WHEN. Ken and Cammy were both available for LESS than retail after they came out...but a couple years later they started to increase in value and today they have close to tripled in value.

You watch the same will happen with Guile and Bison..it might take a little longer, but it will happen.

I dont know about ordering more than one of the EX. Im not Sideshow and I dont have any say in how they run their site.

Hes been on the back burner while I finish Scorpion and the Ryu full size bust.
I totally agree with you on capitalizing on the popular characters to make the less popular one actually this what so many companies do to survive unwanted failure, Sideshow is a good example.

Jerry can you atleast show us a sneak at Ryu and whose the next fighter also can you please release more than 1-2 PF's per year

Jerry just a quick couple of questions. For collectors who own the Red and blue Chun-li's oversea and can't afford to ship it back to you is it possible to produce some decals of the eyes?

Regarding the Ryu 1/3 statue can you tell us if his clothes are going to be sculpted or material?

I can't see why Capcom would get pissed with you over answering that question?

Safaraz sorry bro don't have time to read the whole thread to see if the questions have been asked or answered lol

"Been working on my 2011 schedule all day...

Wow...it looks like I will be releasing 22 collectibles next year.

Obviously that wont all be Street Fighter. Street Fighter will account for only 9 of the collectibles!"

Damn Jerry what happened? 9 street Fighter pieces and throughout 2011 and 2012 all we got were 2. Bison and chun. Honestly how's 2013 looking for street fighter? I hope we get loads of stuff. 1 PF a year is starting to kill me man....

According to what Jerry said last week...only 4-5 weeks until we get a teaser of the new SF character....cough Alex cough.

So that makes 2 pre orders for 2012 and expecting delivery for 2013.

I for one, don't want to rush the man. I am for quality over quantity. After the long wait comes perfection, the proof is Sagat.
