He knew what he was getting into with Oro all along.
He pegged the ES higher just because over the past year there has been a pretty good uptick in sales for all his statues.
Most other statues just have 1 Ex not 2 so that factors plus Oro was never going to sell World Warrior numbers.
Probably just about on target or at least better than what he feared.
I think alternating high demand then less popular characters is a great strategy to keep interest high and help sales on the less popular ones.

I've got to wonder what the final size of the open edition will be if sales don't go too well he might be even rarer then either exclusive.

Hasn't he already sold more than the entire ES of Alex?
Jerry considered the Alex sales to be a success. So I'd imagine he's happy with how Oro is moving.
He's as obscure as you get (excluding '12' lol), but his EX will still sell out.
Then people will hunt the regular. But not until the ex is gone.

Jerry just so happens to be logged in.
Perhaps he could reveal some early thoughts as to whether he's pleased with how Oro is doing?
Barring the p/o problems of course.

the order problems raised an interesting question, he said that his web guy said something along the lines of "800 people clicking at once" so was that guy just pulling a number out of his butt or did a lot of folks just give up after awhile

800 sounds unusal but even with 800 a decent site should be able to deal with it.
Could indicate a lot of flippers with casual interest for making a buck but when the going got tough...

Im thinking that either Blanka or the Akuma Revisit will be next, but I would like to see charlie since his announcement in Street Fighter 5 was made a few months ago.
Also would really like to see more of the 1/6 figures that Jerry has been talking about for a while. The ryu at comic con was super impressive so I hope we hear something more about it soon.
