Prime 1 LOTR Aragorn 1/4 statue

Lots of yellow tags means many QC issues, so not a good sign.

I’m not sure those are QC tags.

A lot of the pieces have them on the same sections. I’m thinking they possibly may be keeping track of edition number for each of the parts?

this has been my feeling over the years, and I've been vocal about it. Just like Sideshow was or, still is...Prime1 puts out a great prototype, but never delivers (IMHO) on the production pieces. This is why I have very little expectation their The Batman piece will be any better.

I hadn’t noticed

It might be time for you to do what I do with the JND threads and avoid them when you can. I stepped away for 2-3 months, dropped in for a few days and haven’t been back recently I don’t think.

I know, it's annoying! But like any evangelist, I get excited when I see someone of the "Faith"......I'll crawl back under my bridge now.

Unfortunately I’m no longer really part of Prime 1’s flock anymore.

I only have 1.5 preorders with Prime 1 at the moment (Peacemaker & Joker bust), where once upon a time I had over a dozen.

I converted not too long ago to be one of Queens faithful, with I think a dozen open preorders at the moment.... but that doesn’t include the new Batman piece. Depending on how things go, my next Batman piece will most likely be the Infinity Bale bust to pair with their Selina Kyle.

P1 Is Done To Me After I Receive The Godzilla Bust & Godzilla Final Battle, If It Wasn't For Had Already Ordered Those I Would've Been Gone. This Is Unacceptable. Nothing About That Image Of The Pieces In Production Looks Good, Tired Of The Crap Quality.

[Phoenixblazes]

You guys may very well be right, but I’m not sure you can base any opinion on that particular photo. We should at least wait for one where you can actually see his face head on.

[Lorrcan]

From that angle it doesn't look great, but it's honestly hard to tell. Often these look much better with some good photographs.

Prime 1 released this image with the update that Aragorn will be shipping "soon". I reached out to them for more information and they just said "in 2022". Does anyone else know how long it typically is between production images like this one and release?

Why is that?
