I'll shut up, don't want to feel like I'm pressuring -- was just curious.

Not pressuring at all, we just dont check in here often. We are in the final stages of production, doing some quality control checks.

Update:

Hey there!


All of us here at Level52 Studios HQ first want to give our sincerest thanks for your purchase of the Frazetta Legacy Series’ The Teaser. This project has taken a lot of unusual twists and turns along the way, and with it, a lot of extra time.


Unvarnished honesty time: we truly had no idea how many difficulties marketing and producing a fully nude statuette without any optional coverings would present. Between ad-blocks on social media, distributors declining to carry her, and restrictions on nudity in China where she’s produced, getting her sold and made was one of our biggest challenges yet as a fledgling collectibles company. While we--and we’re sure you too--feel that nudity in art isn’t tantamount to pornography, social media platforms and the collectibles industry are not quite on the same page as us.


That being said, all of those obstacles are now behind us, and her edition is just finishing up at the factory as we write this message to you. The Teaser will be freighted to our HQ via boat, which can take 4-6 weeks from factory dock to our doorstep. Once she arrives, our team will hand inspect every unit to ensure your copy leaves our hands in one piece. Our new estimate for delivery is end of February 2020, but we’re hoping to deliver sooner!


Again, all of here are truly thankful for your support and patience through the production of this art piece. We couldn’t do what we do without you.

Just got an email from Specfiction that Teaser was now available but the website still shows it as preorder. Either way looking to hopefully see her soon!

Mine arrived today and I'm very happy with it.

Starting with the art box, effective, subtle use of gloss and emboss give it class that some art boxes lack. The foam is held together with velcro straps. Avoids worrying about sticking a knife through your statue while you cut the tape.

The staue is well painted. It uses a lot of pastel colours, adding to the overall calm aesthetic. I was a bit worried because some photos had the colours looking very bold. The edges are clean. The dark shade lines in grooves and such could've been painted with a steadier hand. They have a strong water colour look about them.

Honestly, my only gripe with the statue is the cast quality around the fingers and toes but it's barely noticeable.


I'll post photos later, it's been a long day.
