It's sounding like it's going to be a lot more than 99.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

It's very easy to understand, their reply.

Basically, the Asia Pacific region got 99 ES.
They will then announce the global ES.

So, it will be more than 99 ES worldwide.

For me personally it doesn't matter. I love this bust, the price is a steal.. and I want it on my display room!

I'm guessing the edition size will be based on sales during the "booking time" of August 18 to September 18...

There's probably way more than 100 people with this on order lol

That's not to say it won't turn out fantastic, it just seems a mess with the ES

Yes, they will announce the ES for the worldwide after the PO cut off.
They will also show the video of this bust on their youtube channel in a few days.

I think we may be surprised due to the economy and realizing the amount of people that can/would want to take up this much display space.
That said. My bust should be a (# of 99). If that ES on my statue is of any higher, I’m taking a picture next to this ----- and sending it right back!

Yes I understood especially once nearmint posted that pic 99 for Asia Who Knows How Many everywhere else.

Yeah I get it and sure I'm the same way as long as it comes out looking like this. Sure.

But for the price there's just a lot here 2 full arms, the camera, and will the fabric be the same quality as shown here.

Thing is we've already learned the ES was too good to believe...

I do understand your concern as well.

What I have in mind is that this is a collab with penguin toys, who already has lots of experience with life size busts, with silicone materials, and they deliver the actual product almost exactly like what they have in the promo shoots.

So that keep me from getting too worried about this bust. I am sure they have it all calculated, and will try to deliver.

As for the ES, I think it's just a misunderstandings due to incomplete info.
They did wrote 99 ES for Asia Pacific.
What we don't understand previously is they also have plan to release more ES for worldwide, and announced the numbers after the preorder cutoff.

So I think they are confident that they will be able to sell this bust at least 99 pcs in Asia Pacific, but they are unsure how many will sell worldwide, so they will wait for how much preorder they have for worldwide and then announce the numbers based on how much order they get, afterwards.

This regional preorder system may seem weird, but some Chinese statue companies been doing it for a long time.
I got a recent statue from China with Asia region COA, and ES. There are separate COA and ES for the worldwide edition. The product itself is I think the same.

I'm just happy we're getting this, from a beloved masterpiece comic, and it's not too expensive for my wallet.
I don't really care for the ES, just deliver a product that is very similar to the proto, and I'll be a happy man!
