None of those pics are mine I was just making a point. As for 1:3 Gief I've been advocating for him since forever

I don't think anyone would argue with the quality of PCS items, hell i said Zangief is not only the best SF statue i've ever had but one of the finest statues to be put out in years and i stand by that.
The problem is getting Zangief or indeed a 1:3 Ryu and being there on PO day, paying in full because you want that discount and they're "sold out" within minutes...waiting for 2 years at least...
And then oh it doesn't matter they're all on Sideshow now for 20% off and free shipping.
There's no point at all for me to hold on to these PO's...i've been burnt by it multiple times now and were talking hundreds of dollars that could get me other statues...

Problem with this logic is even though it will probably be cheaper down the line, it will also get pushed down your to buy list cause new stuff will always be getting your money.And that statue you said you are going to buy cheaper will never be bought.

^ Then what does that say about the PCS situation and Pre-Ordering as a whole?

presently, NO ONE wants Pop Culture Shock statues and because of this they will be available for a long time at great prices. I would not even think twice about paying full retail with the fear of not being able to pick one up later down the road. This company's reputation is in the toilet and it's slowly making their way the sewer.
But it's all about the art, Jerry said.

I want the statues. I just wished they were being produced by a company I could trust. And for now at least, I have no trust in PCS.

I actually love the bearded Ryu. Capcom's redesign of him is solid. IF I could trust PCS, I would have bought the Battle Ryu Ultra statue. It's amazing.

I also used my PCS/SS credit to pickup Ryu 1:3.
Happy with the 20% off offer on Ryu, website also let me stacked a $25 off code on top of it.

As it stands you no longer need to trust PCS just Sideshow for orders made from now on.

You couldn't give those to me. I actually don't see the interest in them. Weird characters with oversized feet.

That's actualy Jerry's interpretation of how it would feel once angry collectors got a hold of him and put their foot up his @..
All kidding aside though to each his own...personaly I like the style of SF5 and love the 1:3 statues so far (apart from Akuma's hairline).
