Prime 1: Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem (Film) Wolf Predator

[Forps is back]

Guys, are you amazed by the SHEEP in this hobby believing that this has sold ~ 999 pieces? There were SHEEP believing that XM was the best company cause Tubers have been receiving freebies and they were pushing and hyping XM, night and day. Some guys were convinced that eg XM She-Hulk or Kraven are not c..p.

But you are also NOT READING BEHIND THE LINES.

The gimmick of "Only a few spots left" or "Low stock" adds to other peculiar moves by Prime1.

The whole Prime1's behavi is "strange" the last month (after the announcement of tariffs). She seems to be in a hurry.

Constant new POs, heavy hitters priced rather "low", no announcement regarding tariffs, gimmicks to entice average Joes to PO and have PO money flowing in.

We're talking something BIGGER here. qz33 seems to be the SOLE guy able to "catch" what is going on.

Having a new PO followed by another new PO followed by another new PO, to place heavy hitters up for PO (heavy hitters = more POs), to have them priced rather "low" (Morrigan and Wolf Predator were assumed to be priced higher), to use gimmicks the likes of "Patron bonus" or "Only a few spots left" or "Low stock" justo to create FOMO and entice average Joes to PO (and have PO money flowing in) = something bigger is brewing

Ask qz33

Hey, qz33. Are you also Forps? What are your thoughts on Skip Bayless?

Hmm, has qz ever chimed in on the great Jordan vs LeBron debate?

Statue companies play games with their stock status...all of them. There should be transparency. But are buyers transparent with their buying intentions? It's all a buy/sell game. It's funny to ready somebody accusing just one company of this practice. Here's a reality check sandwich.



Many people are buying this statue if you look on the social media sites. Too rich for my blood but wow what a great looking piece.

Congrats to who can afford this AND display it.

EPIC.

Ofc this tactic is being used by other companies eg JND. But this isnt the point here.

As qz33 implied, "strange" things are happening lately with Prime1. We can also add another company (not JND though) behaving peculiar the last month (constant new POs seeming to be in a hurry for PO money) but i guess the community does not want to talk about it.

qz33 warned you, though. Be careful and don't fall for gimmicks the likes "it is selling out, hurry up and PO", "get on the waitlist and pay the NRD so as to not miss this piece", "it is priced extremely low, PO it now", "do not lose the chance for the Patron bonus, PO it now"

Ohhhh and regarding Skip Bayless, go watch the latest video where Skip is SCHOOLING 25 NBA/NFL fans. It reminds me of how Forps was SCHOOLING the online XM army of pushers and hypers. ALONE. I was handing them Ls, left and right. And they came in droves. Nevertheless, these guys going against Skip are clueless. Skip, as the guy he certainly voted for, is stuboorn and CONSTANTLY repeats the same arguments. No way to change his mind and it is meaningless to even try and argue him

Does anyone know if it is dangerous to order directly from Prime 1 right now?

When Wolf production is completed, these tariffs might still be in place.

Someone posted the attached screenshot on a Facebook group, and it is unclear if Prime 1 will eventually cancel all American orders while the tariffs are in place.

I have a fully paid order that was automatically put on “hold”, but I do not know what will happen to it.

Will Prime 1 ask me to pay a fraction of the tariffs? Will Prime 1 cancel my order if the tariffs are not removed within 3 months?

There is a possibility that they will cancel all American orders in order to free up space in their warehouses.

Nobody knows besides them, but I wouldn't take their word on anything unless it's about a item shipping right now. A lot can change within the next few months, let alone a few years. I have one thing on order with them, but if there are any tariffs involved on it, I'm definitely canceling.

[komodo112]

If I ordered anything Predator related, no question I'd go to Sideshow.

1. Too nervous about their dreadlocks breaking. Sideshow will either replace or refund it. Prime 1 on the other hand would tell you to glue it back together

2. If something does happen, Sideshow respects the customer's decision and will refund the purchase with no BS.

Only downside to them is that they don't have nearly as much flexpay options as P1 or other vendors.

[solidgadium]

I’ve been getting stuff from them (one last week) and I haven’t seen any tariff increases. I have about three statues arriving in the next two months and no indication of increases.

[Verbal21]

Ok, what kinda of pedestals or display stands are you guys using for these huge 1:3 pieces?
