Yeah, the typical lead time for Prime 1 is at least 2 years. In fact, I preordered this statue on February 20th, 2019, nearly two years ago, so I’m not surprised really. It’s just when you go back to when a statue is first revealed, it’s kind of mind-boggling how long it takes some of these statues to get into collectors hands.
To put it into perspective, from this statues first reveal in September 2018 to now, a woman could have made and given birth to 3.22 babies.

The insanely early teases need to stop. If I have to wait close to 2 years from the time I ORDER something to receive it, then I don't need to be made aware that the product exists ~4 years before that time. From "tease" or whatever to Pre-Order should never be longer than 2-3 months.

I couldn’t have said it better myself. Prime1 teases product WAY too early, which is why I never get excited when they have shows that reveal new product. The newly revealed statues may look awesome, but I literally have zero excitement about them because I know it’s going to be years before I unbox them.
A good example is the Lee Bermejo Catwoman statue. WTH happened there? Teased and yet months later.......nothing? So maybe by 2024 collectors will have that one.

While I love Prime 1, their insanely long wait times are starting to frustrate me.

I agree that the wait sucks. Delays suck. But getting a bad statue sucks even more. Just get it done right Prime 1.
This piece is highly anticipated and will be the comic Harley benchmark. For every person that cancels for the wait, there will be several others to pick up that order, especially with the deluxe and all them heads. That is of course after these pieces finally ship.

Out of curiosity, I wanted to see some competition...
Maybe it's not a fair comparison but from this quick list XM would be on the bottom followed by Sideshow. Both P1 pieces are amazing with Harley comic on top. Open to see any other comparisons and opinions.
Prime 1 - #1
Prime 1 - #2
Sideshow - #3
XM - #4

IMO the P1 Comic portraits win by a mile, especially the 2 on the left.
