Mein Godt! That would mean Yen will be delayed again to next summer!

I see no reason to be concerned. With Prime 1, at least, everything is clear. We'll see Ciri when we'll see Ciri, and we'll see Yen when we'll see Yen. Consistency and precision, some of the japanese qualities.

Not a fan of companies holding onto my cash for long periods of time. Prime1 included. I understand delays occur, but this line seems to be on the excessive end of wait times from what I can gather.
Not saying they'll do us dirty. I just want better communication from P1. They know there's a delay on the horizon, then they shouldn't wait to tell us the month that a statue is estimated to come out.
Let us know what is up. Then, if it turns out it is coming quicker, they've just under promised and over delivered on the production time. It would go a long way towards managing customer expectations.

I go another way.
By example Prime 1 Justice League Wonder Woman Ultimate.
Second delay, then i have canceled Wonder Woman.
There is always a next statue. I'll just take these. Or the next one

 I was ironic.
All these delays are ridiculous. I am wondering if Prime 1 is a company living with NRD and payment plans. The reason why there is so many new orders every month...

Hmmm, not sure how Japan handles LOCs for companies like this. From my manufacturing experience, you would get an LOC to operate on with the underlying product as the securitized asset. The NRD and payment plans are usually just to lock in the production quotas and assure the bank that there is indeed demand for said product. Im sure whoever did the syndication for the LOC for Prime 1 has their own tables for percentages and all that as far as their expectations go. Technically, P1 would have also gotten a fixed loan as the primary operating horizon with the LOC as a backup to accommodate unforeseen production issues/delays. However, P1 is very late on a lot of these statues so they must have massive runway on their LOCs.

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

Not sure if you guys noticed, but they have close to 200 products on pre-order (including variants/DX versions) but 3-5 are coming out every year. That does not look good at all. I love their stuff but really makes you wonder if there's a point in preordering anything.

I wondered if anyone had a break down of past releases. I feel like it has to be higher than 3-5 a year, but even at 12 a year it would take them 5+ years to get caught up with all their existing pre-orders.

Yeah, that's what angers me. Why should we bother pre-ordering if they can't deliver within a reasonable time frame. It's absurd.
