What would SS charge ? XM ? ECC ?

If there are switchable mask and LED i said go for the ECC price.

Only LED i think $1k is good price.

Can you please make sure the factories do not use electric tape on the back of the eyes leds for any of these busts this time around? I disliked that very much on my first Scorpion bust,and I cant warrant ECC prices with stuff like that imo

They are lifesize if SZ was around 6'3"

No switchable mask. LEDS only.

But we havent been priced at ECC levels...or even close. To get those original busts at the price we did those are the kinds of compromises needed.

You mentioned these would be closer to 1k,and yes that's not ECC prices,but it is pretty close to some of there of busts.Some are 1k or just over at 1100,but I don't worry with them as I know they own Toynami who generally get the job done right using the proper materials and parts.You have said it before when factories you use switch this or that in the production part,so I just need to have some reassurance when we get closer to 1k with the MK busts.I don't worry about the SF stuff because I know from years of being a customer QC is good with them

So, with the ice base, is SZ close to 35 inches?

as for the price goes, I think it's probably going to based heavily on the edition size,

Any idea what the edition size for these are?

thanks

We dont have specific factories for specific licenses, so the MK pieces are worked on by same factory as SF.

Every $100 in retail price brings another level of quality. Big difference between $1200 (ECC Guyver Bust) and the $700 we charged for say, Akuma Bust. Almost twice as much.

I have to be honest. At this point I think we have established our commitment to quality as long as no one thinks they are getting a $1200 quality bust for $700.

ECC also gives your order to you generally within 6 months after p.o,where PCS takes two,three or even four times as long,so you essentially are paying for quality and quick turn around with them.With PCS I know the quality is there in most cases,but the price point for your busts are going to be higher now,so if that's the case,than you need to make sure the quality is better too.The outer edges of the leds on the original Scorpion bust had black speckles/dots which made the light up eyes look grainy and dark around the edges.I don't want to see that stuff in your MK busts if your busts are closer to 1k,im not trying to ruffle any feathers,i just have higher expectations with stuff closer to 1k

Okay thank you for your time,and just so you know I am pretty sure if anyone ordered Guyver when it went up for p.o during the first couple weeks,it was $1000 dollars,not $1200.I look forward to seeing more of this and the price tag
