PCS Street Fighter 1/4 1/3 on hold other than Swimsuit
This was a comment from Ant a year ago that I found. Someone asked about SF statues so did some reading Sagat and Bison tanked so they put Balrog Ken on
hold. Just the 1/2 Akuma getting a statue, swimsuit and bust much as I can tell

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

This is misleading.
As you yourself said, this is from a year ago. Yes, 1/4 and 1/3 haven't seen anything lately, but SF6 just came out.

I can't stress enough how much supporting a line leads to rare characters being made. We have production minimums and we have to know these B characters will be popular enough to be made and sold. (I personally like the Ultra line the best, but I'm told the juice isn't worth the squeeze with those, so we will see if it goes past blanka)
1/3 Ken is on pause for now. 1/2 scale akuma is next for the high end stuff.
Chun Li bust pre order is in q2 I believe
I can all but guarantee sf6 will be in our stable. We haven't planned what yet. Let's see how the game does and who the popular fighters turn out to be.

So I'll be expecting more in the coming months.

My guess though, is that PCS were using the 1/10 line as another barometer for Street Fighter success, and they're probably not seeing the numbers they want.
Several loud voices in the fb echo chamber, however.
Still unsure why Ant made that "game changing" announcement, but then this line doesn't apply. Open ES - doubt it attracts many people.
I don't believe Ant is as big a fan of Street Fighter as Jerry was, but I believe he's trying to find something that works for them. Wonder if "Part 2" of their game changing plans this fall will elaborate on Street Fighter?

Where is the 1/2 Akuma? It feels like it has been ages without news, kind of leads to losing interest...

So the 1/2 scale Akuma will be part of the swimsuit line? Now that is a gamechanger!

The 1/10th line? Thought the point was that was supposed to be the everyman always available line ? Making it limited never seemed to fit the goals with that one.
