Part 2: Jerry Macaluso Interview, Pop Culture Shock, NYCC 2014

Yeah that was my video. I think it's Raiden as Jinkazama says. Pretty sure there was a tease.

hmmm so you think the raiden sneak was 1/3rd?
interesting, i thought it was a klassic 1/4

Jerry just hinted about a klassic by year's end, not a 1:3 klassic. Raiden will be 1:4.

No that's not what I said.

The Mule is correct.




So, here's the thing about the 1:3 statues. Or, at least here's what we know:

1. Jerry sculpts them himself - each one, individually. It takes time.
2. They are expensive.
3. PCS is venturing into 1:3 statues for the first time. There's risk involved.

So here's what I conclude:

I wouldn't expect sudden surge or "line" in the works right now (unless the Ninjas are a palette swap).

I think Jerry will want to see how Scorpion and Akuma play out.

It's going to be a loooooong time before the 1:3 Scorpion is in anyone hands, much less any talk of Reptile or Sub Zero.

And, as stated before, we do not know if these will be lines.
You'd need a lot of collectors with a lot of space and a lot of money.

If I was to guess I would expect one 1:3 statue per licence. At least, for now. Portraying the most popular character.

Just my opinion but it's hard for me to imagine Jerry pumping these out at the rate that some of you are imagining, if at all.

you make some great points but i don't think money and space will be the major reason people don't buy it. if money was an issue we wouldn't have people buying statues at ridiculous prices. i always smile when collectors say they don't have space and they LITERALLY have 10 preorders up. we will just have to see.

I think I will only be able to afford 1/3 Scorpion and not the rest.

So with Jerry's new site we're expecting a smooth experience right?

How do his PO's usually go?

First timer??

Press order and pay through paypal and check in as guest, no need to register. EASY!

First timer ordering direct through PCS.

I actually owned Cammy, Ken, and Zangief a few years back but I ordered those through SS back when Jerry used them for distribution.

And I've actually practiced ordering from PCS 10+ times this past week in preparation for this PO. Being a SS fanboy has kept me out of intense PO's for quite some time so I'm probably a little rusty and want to bring my A game.

Reading the XM Pheonix thread has caused me to worry about this PO and hoping we don't havea slow server experience as well...

The only reason I am passing on it is because I am broke, it's the best scorpion ever. Jerry fixed his website so the PO process is really easy. Also, Scorpion 1/3 won't sell out in 3 seconds lol. It is an expensive piece.
