Oh, and I think you're off on the dimensions. More like 24" by 24". It's pretty much just the width of his shoulders.

Jerry, have you thought about delving into 1/2 busts?

I understand this is somewhat relatively new to some people, but it offers a much more affordable option...

Also a Raiden bust I think would be one of the cooler busts people would be into.

I tremendously love these things PCS makes and buy many so I mean this with total adoration but at the end of the day that's exactly EVERYTHING PCS makes..


It's not that different than buying several characters or a 1/3 Goro.


Nothing about collecting this stuff to this degree is rational. I mean there's some people that get a few but with PCS's two bread and butter licesenses you're customer base HAS to be pretty hardcore. I don't think people that would buy these statues, a Sub-Zero and Scorpion bust would turn down Raiden cause his hat was more than they could handle.

But I get what you mean and of course I feel differently. I think Sub-Zero and Scorpion were always sub-par in the games and Raiden was always the face of MK for me. There's nothing better about Mortal Kombat than Raiden.

Would the hat really make it that much? I figured you'd use a real asian conical straw hat .

Even real Ronin-gasa hats like those used in Big Trouble in Little China seem to go for less than $300 and Raiden's is more just a wider standard Asian conical hat.

But I get the concern. Just to be clear I have to say I don't want you to think I suggest things without at least a concern for PCS's business at least from what I understand. I know you have people depending on you. And I definitely know I don't know enough to even be in the business.

I can easily be wrong but I don't have the thought process of "let PCS deal with it selling 3 as long as I get one."
I do at least care and try even if I don't know what I'm talking about.

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

Yeah showing just something new of Scorpion might help Sub-Zero's sales right before the PO.
