HMO still looks good yes , just not as good as this. And lets not confuse digital art with a actual statue

the hmo one is just a render so far.
but one thing for sure, hmo will nail the skin colour perfectly. as good as the design from kinetiquettes is, I cannot trust their rough paint job and colour choices.

Can we have more infos about your EU warehouse??
Basically like First 4 Figures you can just order from the Kinnetiquettes website as normal and when your order is due, they ship it to the EU warehouse first and then they ship to you from that EU Warehouse.

So you are only paying shipping from the EU warehouse to your location and of course that also means no custom fees.

The only thing with me being from the UK and Brexit i don't know if a EU warehouse is good enough any longer, reduced shipping costs for sure but custom fees are a mystery.

F4F luckily also have a UK warehouse.

Waited a life for a decent Mai statue and now there are two coming out at the same time

Though the pose is quite similar, I think I like the HMO one more.

Decisions, decisions..

With each new Gaming Legend(s) piece, HMO increase the price by $100
I guess that averages out about $100 per year price increase, as they appear to release a new piece each year.
In 10 years time a 1/4 scale HMO piece will be $1800 ..+shipping +import charges. I guess i'll be out of the hobby by then.
I really hope Capcom's Felicia arrives sooner rather than later

They reduced the edition size so they may be viewing a shift in economics that it is better to do 550 at $800 than 750 at $700 in terms of insuring quality control.

We will have to see how they handle Felicia.
