Jerry,
i noticed there were a few shortcuts that the factory managed to get away with on Scorpion.
Now i know this isnt entirely your fault since u had dramas with another factory and it delayed production significantly.

But going forward, could you please guarentee that you will not allow these factories to use inferior materials?

Your prototypes are second to none. But i need reasurance that you will get more aggressive when it comes to QC and that your "pass" criteria is stepped up a notch.

I am basing my question off Scorpion 1/3 alone.

Before the production piece was shown, that piece was almost impossible to get.
Today, people are giving it away.

Please, use force if neccesary.

Jerry with with stepping back and focusing more on sculpting does that mean more hand sculpted statues? Or rather I mean more involvement like the 1:3's?

Anthony is having a call with the factory over the weekend to get a better update.

This factory is a good one but they are very small and have taken too many projects causing everything to be far behind.

We do our absolute best but there can never be a guarantee. Even Tesla and Apple have things slip through QC at times.

i will say that the new management is diving deep into what we can do to make these problems fewer. We all take it seriously. We spend a lot of time making beautiful prototypes and its very frustrating when a factory doesnt quite get it right.

Having said all that, I honestly feel the 1:3 Scorpion is awesome. Its not quite as good as the prototype but very close. The yellow material, contrary to what some think, is exactly the same as on the prototype. The sculpture is exactly the same. nothing was changed.

The only thing that bugs me is the opening of the hood is a bit smaller than Id like but its easily stretched out a bit.

But yes, we will always strive to improve.

I Need your help for replacement. I have all 1:3 MK Statues in order and the Life Size Busts. This would be an amazing display.
Of cource without damage.
Thanks Bastian
Sorry about that. Hopefully you have messaged customer service and/or posted in the customer service thread

We do not. It was a mistake the factory made and we had them send it to us as we thought it was cool. It was never intentional.

Jerry, do you and/or new management anticipate any changes (increases or decreases) to the amount of product solicited, specifically in the Street Fighter line (due to more unannounced licenses incoming, or management preference)? Or is it business as usual, sticking to roughly the same schedule you've talked about previously?

V-Trigger - 2 pieces
1:8 - 6 pieces
1:6 Hot Toys style - 2 pieces
And maybe some surprises...
