Uh acronyms are used in every day life everywhere :| Hell it's not even just acronyms regular words are foreshortened too. Do you expect people to say gasoline instead of gas or adhesive bandage instead of band-aid?

Also I work in IT and without acronyms it would SUUUUUUUCK

Apparently you hate efficiency :P

Using them in everyday life for work is one thing, because I know about using acronyms having worked for different companies.

Yes, I do expect people to spell things out at times.

"Ooh, I got GF on the IL about YMT." Yeah, we all can decipher that. Maybe some people did get an anal probe pre-ordered. I don't know.

Anyway, back on topic. Looking forward to this statue.

Forget value, this ain't 2010 anymore. Expect it to lose value, and there will be a classic Cammy release using a mirrored copy of this sculpt.

Sad that these days everybody feels they have to shorten words like the seconds it takes to write out the full word will ruin their world.

WTF, TMI, LOL, ROFL, AP, etc.

It's because of smart phones. I hate all the acronyms too but I hate trying to type a long message on my phone worse

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Honestly I was hoping this Shadaloo Cammy was going to be her doll outfit and not the Bison alt. Hopefully one of her 1/3 designs will be the jacket alt from SF4 since her SF5 costume is basically her common Killer Bee outfit but with a gun strap added.
