It should be at sea next week, then takes a month to 6 weeks to arrive to the warehouse. Then will begin shipping out everyone's Akuma.

Sorry for the delay.
So basically 2 more months, wow

1 week to be at sea, 6 weeks to arrive to the warehouse, 1 week to check it and 2 weeks to arrive at home, it's a lot of time!!!

For Ryu, we paid the shipping fees and 1 week after he was shipped to us.

I thought we had to pay when Akuma would be at the warehouse.

I paid for shipping 1 month ago.

Akuma will be shipped 1 year after preorder, it's not long compared to other companies but it's a lot compared to what was announced.

But he worth it so a little bit more patience and he will be here.

This is true. I never took the 6 month announcement seriously. Not a lot of people can deliver on that. My expectation has always been 12 to 15 months.

I've been patient with the last two releases since it's a new company; but I'm still hoping they can release at least two per year. Otherwise I'm literally looking at half my life to complete this line.

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

Continue to Support Eric and his company and we can see this line complete.

Sorry,but he has a point。 This need to be consistent。 That is why i always told that they should release Ryu and Akuma and then go to B,C characters. That way if they stop we still have those that are difficult to see around and would create the trust to people that they will do all. They really have wasteid all the bullets, ken,ryu and Akuma

I'm out of this line. Besides SDCC having some nice surprises, I always had a stronger preference to PCS' sculpting style. Akuma doesn't fit in anywhere with my stuff, stylistically.

Edit: I've gone back and forth on this, only because of the slow start of this line, and the style change with Akuma. But Erick cleared it up, saying Akuma was intentionally made more interpretative than Ryu. Fair enough - we don't see much of Akuma up close in SF2. Honda, Guile, and Ken should hopefully evoke the same nostalgic arcade feel as Ryu.

And given how the "other" company has tested its loyal customers wits and patience, I'm all-in with Erick's line. I also appreciate that he's not growing the company beyond sustainability. Balance is the key.
