[NorthernLadMSP]

And all of that is baseless conjecture.

Hey! are you some Sideshow worker seem like this!
I know Sideshow didnt pay any deposit to Prime1 for a longtime. You should check your source better. Your comments full of nonsense if you want please contact directly. I will speak to you.

Prime 1 took advantage of this but unfortunately sideshow doesn’t want to fund this endless procedure anymore. The problem is not with sideshow is with Prime 1. I don’t think they have the money to produce the insane amount of statues that they announce so they keep going with pre orders to raise more money to fund the old releases. None wants to be a part of that not sideshow not BBTS none. The amount of money for the pre order deposits will just kill anyone that tries to follow.

This is not healthy for anyone. Not for the brands not for the distributors like sideshow not for the collectors that they see collectability going down the drain with batmans gold pink black silver , batman who laughs, batman who farts … Don’t take me wrong huge batman fan but cmon.

Another member mentioned that sideshow warehouse is full of prime 1 that’s true a few days ago I saw they had their very first megatron statue available for order.

As im from Europe I can see in all major shops like darkside collectibles darksidetoy.com, collectibles direct, having almost everything from prime 1 available. I also checked the site of prime 1 and they have more than 300 products (crazy if you ask me for the time that prime 1 has been around) from which only 50-60 were sold out all the rest are either in stock or pre order.

IMO prime 1 needs to chill out a bit and focus on delivering the already published goods (if they have the money to produce all that’s is published). Is not a matter of having a US or European warehouse to cut the middle man cause they need the middle man for the deposit money. For me the crucial question is does Prime 1 has the insane amount of money required to fund all these productions without any middle man like sideshow ? I seriously don’t think so.

Prime 1 is a great studio but they seriously need to reconsider their selling policies and the amount of statues that they produce. I don’t think collectors can manage.

Hey NextLevel99, I just have 2 questions for you, which are=
A.Is it likely prime 1 studios will still be dealing with sideshow collectables?
B.Will sideshow collectables still be receiving prime 1 studios items that have been available on sideshow's website?[Cyborg Superman, Fugitive Predator, etc]. Cheers!
