Ideal number of 1:4 statues released in a year

Hey guys, I'm curious... given our ES and price range, what would be an ideal release schedule look like to you? Granted everyone will have different opinions on this but it would be interesting to look at the average results. Also, this is about 1:4 scale premium collectibles range and is NOT limited to one particular license. So for instance, if I said XM were to release 2 statues per month, it could be 1 from license A and the other from license B.

On with the poll!

I'd be happy with 1 statue per license every 6 months.

Yea I agree with that. Multiple per license in quick succession is tough. Granted, I know we live outside your current market so our financial burden isnt perfectly accurate.

I'd prefer 1 statue per license every 3 months...so one per quarter per license. If I win the lottery then make however many you can churn out in a month

Agreed. One statue per quarter works for me as well. I might be able to handle two per quarter if my primary focus is XM which where I am headed anyway.

Interesting... given this schedule, that means previously announced statues (20) will take 10 years to fully roll out...

Wolverine
Antman
Thanos
Ms Marvel
Thor
Mark 7
Phoenix
Cable
Ironman classic
Inhuman – Blackbolt
Doctor Strange – Classic
Deadpool
She Hulk
Brown Wolverine
Scarlet Witch
Elektra
Inhuman - Medusa
Dare Devil
Quicksilver
Ironman Mark MK 3 - movie

Original intention was to roll out all in the next 24 months... which is roughly 1 statue per month. That would be too much, no? And these doesn't even include the 1/6...

That's an ambitious schedule Bryan. How would you guys maintain your high level of QC on that schedule?

I mean, you also have to consider our opinions are of statues WE would buy. I have no interest in Deadpool, Elektra, Daredevil, Quicksilver, etc.

So really I might only be getting 2-3 statues this year. With Wolverine, Phoenix, Cable, and MAYBE Brown Wolverine.

You also have to factor in that some characters won't appeal to collectors. You guys do such a good job on characters it's hard to pass though. On your list I'm in for Wolverine, Thanos, Phoenix, Cable, and Thor for sure. Dr Strange and Blackbolt will tempt me I'm sure.
