If I had to take an educated guess, I'd say that ARH got a nice infusion of money from somewhere. Thats pure speculation, but to me at least, it makes sense. Along with this infusion of money has come a new method of doing business. That method is, they make a statue and sell it. Prior to this, they sold the statue and then made it. We are seeing this new method of operation with the Zeus statue.
Unfortunately, there are still a lot of people that are waiting for statues bought under the old practice. Now, I think its a careful balancing act. They need to keep releasing new statues, which they make and then sell, while at the same time producing the old statues that have already been sold, and I would guess, the money has been spent.
If you asked me what I thought two months ago, I would have said if you had a preorder, you're most likely going to get stuck with no statue and no money. Now, after my recent ARH experience, I feel like Arahom is working hard to pushing through the debacles of the past few years. I also get a sense, and this again is pure speculation, that there is another person pulling the strings at ARH in addition to Arahom. As seen but the new presence of the ARH staff here, there is a new flavor to his posts. They are informational, they address things and there is answers to questions. If you have been here for a bit, you know that hasn't always been the case.
So... in my opinion, I think if you have statues on order like Valkerie, Arkhalla Fight, Arhian Forever, Sucubuss...youre going to wait a bit to get them. The new stuff, like Zeus and the Arhian bust, I think those will be delivered much faster.
