I bet they are struggling with how to improve viewership on their live shows and get more traffic through their online communities. My feeling is they are tasking this to the employees who may be in a difficult position to make big decisions with little internal influence. It should be a strategy from their management team. But what do I know. I'm just a collector too.
Are seasonal codes worth the bother?

Sideshow appears to be able to slash $50+ off a piece if sales are slow.

Sideshow appears to be able to offer free global shipping on a piece if sales are slow.

Sideshow appears to be able to giveaway PF pieces to YouTube reviewers, so long as the reviewer signs up to the Sideshow Collectibles code of conduct - no reviewing of customs pieces etc (i'm not sure if this includes pieces by XM Studios)

I work at a place that implemented reward points about 5 years ago. We currently have a multi-million dollar liability. I wouldn't be surprised if Sideshow has to begin expiring them to avoid possible bankruptcy if many redeem their points all at once.

Lol. I'm not looking to get paid, but if SS is providing pieces to YouTube reviewers, I'd be foolish not to look into it.

Who's in charge of posting codes this year? Any idea if one will drop over night?

This forum is getting statues from DST to review which they are going to give away in some sort of contest. It's in the news section here.

Guess this is the new business model?
