This site can't be reached

I have also tried using DuckDuckGo, and no luck?
I might have to look at my firewall settings.

They should have made the base look the same as the 1/1 version.




It's E.T. it will sell out. All 1/1 pieces sold out.
All ECC pieces are made to order, so they always sell out. That's why some are extremely hard to find.

ECC going full-Dino was the WORST decision by a company in this hobby along with Sideshow's to not enter the 1/3 scale earlier.

Nothing moves in this section. Noone cares for ECC anymore.

The best company in this hobby turned into a joke.

Dino-collectors do not have the numbers and the depth to collect ultra-expensive lines or many different lines.

Steve and George (Toynami) lost their minds going full Dino. I bet that George saw some initial success with their first Dino projects and thought "hmmmm, there is a market here". But he overestimated the depth of this market and it shows.

ECC's thread is so "silent", it reminds me of Lebron's bashers being silenced the moment the GOAT posterizes one of their guys inside the paint.

It's truly baffling, I'll never understand how could Elite Creature Collectibles think Jurassic Park would be a good fit for the company..

Monsters and HIGH quality.
As you said they should focus on monster movies instead.. preferably by SWS and culturally long-lasting, ideally if once highest grossing movie of all time.

Totally. Also easily seen by how ECC largest and most expensive piece in their history by a colossal margin, and part of what's already their most intensive line ever, is a JP piece.

Exactly, precisely why they should drop Jurassic Park of which Threads are the most viewed and discussed.

ECC actions are all so perplexing..

"ET" is not a dinosaur. "E.T." stands for "Extraterrestrial," and it refers to the friendly alien character from the 1982 science fiction film "E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial," directed by Steven Spielberg. The character is a small, brown alien who becomes stranded on Earth and befriends a young boy named Elliott. While ET is a beloved fictional character, it has no connection to dinosaurs.

But those are real monsters that actually existed, they clearly don't count

I was ofc commenting on the fact that ECC's threads are silent. Nearly zero activity. NOTHING. NADA. NULL. Nearly ~10 days have passed since lasts posts on various ECC's threads.

And with ECC losing her mind and going full-Dino, she also had PCS sneaking in the monsters market. Even if Steve turns ship, i can't see ECC fully dominating again the monsters market.

But he can only blame himself and George. It was obvious that apart from some Chinese guys collecting Dinos (and also other weird things and animals) and a handful of western collectors, such lines can't be sustained for a long time (or having a lot of new pieces revled and being put up for PO). He can only blame himself and George.

ECC's threads are ghost towns nowadays. This along with the last ATROCIOUS non-Dino things ECC offered (eg that 1/3 Hellboy looking like a HCG piece) make me sad.
