Production hasnt started so could the exclusive either have an increase period or increase the sorceress ex whilst decreasing the reg version, but based on the ex version sales rate may be silly to reduce the reg numbers so therefore just increase the ex numbers. Please, its quite depressing when you have the other ex statues and miss out on another, i know from this forum there are several members that missed out like myself, just my disappointing thoughts coming from a fan of these beautiful statues.

I feel your pain but I cant increase the ES. Email customer service and ask to be put on the wait list (we have started doing them now that we a re a bit more organized here)

2. Have you started work on the 1/3 Ryu and will you show progress pics like you did with Akuma?
3. When can we expect to pre order Blanka and is he the next 1/4 pre order or is that Charlie?
4. Any idea when we can expect Sakura? Really want a Sakura 1/4!
Thanks, Jerry!

1-ship from China in July. Capcom is displaying it at E3 which is exciting.
2-I am starting 1:3 Ryu this weekend.
3-Blanka is next. Sculpture is done. Its being 3D printed. Probably early.mid July

I'm making a spreadsheet of my collection and it's pretty much impossible to find info on statues that we bought on the old website (Balrog, Dhalsim, etc...)
Thanks

Adding older items is on my list but we still havent worked out the bugs in the site so its not something we will have the time to do anytime soon.

The next SF revisit is coming end of the year. Im only doing one revisit per year.
I dont actually view the characters in terms of which games they were in. So I never really thought about it th way you are presenting it.
Having said that. There is a 'New Challenger' in the works

He has always been near the top of the list of statues i want to revisit. I actually really like our Bison but not a fan of the material used in the costume. We are SO MUCH better at costuming now.

How many is enough ? See..thats the conundrum.
We (and I think most collectibles companies) have a general policy to make 3% more for replacements and a couple dozen replacements for fragile pieces. For example, on Teela we had 20 extra swords and guns and shields.
This is why we urge collectors to pay shipping immediately so they get theirs first and can see if they need a replacement.

Thinking about Thundercats, you at least were able to create and sell Lion-O and Mumm-Ra before cancelling the line. So, I'm wondering if you would ever consider dabbling in other similar popular franchises like Silverhawks or Bravestarr, where fans could at least get one or two statues made before having the line cancelled (if they'd be cancelled at all) instead of having nothing.
Maybe you could even consider making a line of 1:4 statues based only on the main hero and villain of multiple 80's/90's franchises so we could get a wide variety of in scale stuff: M.A.S.K., Centurions, Tigersharks, G.I. Joe, Transformers, Voltron, TMNT, GOBOTS, etc...
Thanks!

The problem is companies dont want to do a deal for us to only make one statue. The legal fees for them to create the contracts and supervise approvals are too high to justify one statue, except in cases where the character is super popular and expected to sell a lot. For example, our Conan statue. We are only doing Conan but we expect to sell 750 or more so it makes it worthwhile.
Theres no way we are going to sell 750 Bravestarrs

Another company offered more money than we could. So they are doing it....or just sitting on the license so we cant do it. not sure which.

Kitana is in the works but probably not for this year.
I dont ahve a sample of Jade in front of me. My art director in China approved the color there, Ive only seen pics and they arent good enough to post.
i should have one soon as she is far into production.

At least 2 Klassics in the works. one close to done.

The Ultra line is true 1:4 scale , so a little larger than the 'black base' line.
