I think it's a little unfair to compare sales to Sideshow.

The bigger, more popular company with open ended runs who advertise everywhere sold more than a lesser known company that has limited runs and only advertises on one forum. Therefore, nobody wants what we are selling.

The advertising thing might be a bit harsh and probably untrue, however you have to admit, they have a lot more eyes on their product which generally equates to a lot more sales regardless of the design aesthetics.

That said, I understand the risks involved and cannot argue with the decision made.

I'll keep an eye out for any other related MOTU stuff you might produce and as previously mentioned cross my fingers that you pick up a license which I'll be able to support.

Good thinking. I'd trust Jerry to deliver quality work just based on the concept art if that's what it takes to get this made.

Jerry thank you for enlightening us. But please, if there's any way, Otter is right I also bought a Castle Grayskull just from proto pics. Matty also was very clear that they needed to meet certain sales goals for them to go into production. Matty did it with some of there subscription lines as well. Please give Skeley/Panthor a chance

I'm 100% down for the Skeletor/Panthor duo also if there's even a remote hope of getting it done at some point. For the record, I would be like man-gasmic if a Panthor posed similarly to Battle Cat was made.

* Would also almost certainly shell out for a Horde Trooper and Mer-Man. PLISSSSSSSSSSS!

Just thinking, (worrying!) in anyone's experience if an ES is cut short, could this mean some customers could get their orders cancelled, with retailers not receiving their quota? Or is it a case of lowering the ES to the amount already sold?

I'm talking predominantly about the individual 1:4 mixed media He-Man.

Could Jerry clarify?

Thanks

Well, couldn't help myself. Today I pre-ordered the regular Battle-Cat to go with the He-Man I've already pre-ordered. I doubt we will ever see another MotU statue to rival these two as a display.

Thanks PCS.
