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.

I kindly disagree with you good sir. Pictures don't do the faux bronze justice. Very underrated statue.

This is the reason I prefer the faux bronze. I have see pics somewhere of a repainted version of the Bowen IG version and it makes all the difference. I believe this upcoming Koto version will surprise a lot of people once it's in-hand. Erick Sosa does great work.

There you go. There's just no need to pay retail on Koto pieces. If you're willing to do a little research, you can find them at substantial discounts. Congrats on your PO.

Thems is fightin' words! 
I personally find the FB superior to the painted. Hence, why I own it.

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

Agreed Sosa is 1 of a kind sculptor. Hey the FB version isn't bad, just different n goes a cheaper.

Is A10 collectibles a legit retailer? I'm really new to this and have only bought from BBTS and Amazon for Kotobukiya.

I bought stuff from them before and didn't have any problem. I think other members bought stuff from A10 Collectibles and they didn't have any problems either.

Has anyone heard what the production number is going to be on this guy? The new Kotous site doesn't have the quantity gauge any longer so I'm curious.

We won't know that until it's actually released. That's just the way kotobukiya does things.

I agree. Once you get a great paint job on the Ig thanos, to me it doesn't get any better than that. This one has the Ron lim head, but look at the base compared to the original.
