BLANKA - Page 107

I got my replacement. I swear it is twice as heavy as the previous. It's heavy as Bison. Crazy that weight can vary so much.

The problem I'm facing is who to display him with. I wanted him alongside Honda but they don't both fit in the space.

Edit: I've paired him with Sagat. In another cabinet I have Honda, Bison and Balrog. It seems to work.

He's too small next to Sagat. You should display him with the new Ryu or Balrog. Sagat should be paired with Guile

STILL waiting here. I posted my concern / frustration on their fb group and it was deleted with no explanation.

What is the actual QC issue with Blanka, does anyone know?

Hi,
Receive this mail from pcs custom service:
«-Hello Collectors,

If you are receiving this message, it is because you have a Blanka 1:4, Blanka Savage 1:4 EX, or Blanka P2 1:4 EX that has not been delivered yet. We came across some QC issues with this statue - including minor glue stains on the back of his pants and very minor paint flaws. We were very saddened by these issues and did what we could to deliver the highest quality pieces to those who paid immediately upon their arrival to us. We have now shipped all the Blankas that passed our in-house QC, and only the statues with these small defects remain.

If you still want to get your hands on this amazing statue that you ordered, we will offer a 25% discount or refund on what you paid for the statue. We will also be checking the statue before sending it to you to ensure you receive the least effected statue possible. For 99% of the available statues left in-stock, all of the slight defects are on the back of the statue and do not show when on display looking at it from the front. The statues will be sold as-is, as we don't have replacements to offer, and there will be no additional refunds offered.

We of course will honor a full refund if you decide you do not wish to keep this order due to the defects.

PCS sincerely apologizes for these flaws and will be working diligently to ensure issues like these are not repeated on future statues.-»

Just to say I reply to the custom service and ask a fully refund of my 2 pre-order fully paid. Just hope they will not made years for make the refund I already waiting 2 refund case since months.

sorry to hear. I was lucky enough to get mine shipped (still haven't opened the boxes, lol).

I wonder why they are still selling them on the pcs site?

Oh yes the Mixed Media line is rather on it's arse. It's good news for people who want an instant cheap 1/4 SF collection as you can get a bunch of pieces for $200 or less.

Real bad for those who paid out full price....it's not the pieces themselves as a lot if not all of them came out close to proto it's just a real shift in the market and of course PCS' reputation being mud...

I cancelled all my pre-orders and have sold just about all my 1/4 pcs statues (blanka and ehonda left). But I will be stuck with my 1:3 forever. Refuse to lose that much for them.

True, there are a lot of 1/3 scales online right now and I don't see them go for 500+ USD. That is just crazy. I am so lucky to have sold everything (needed space for Star Wars replicas) for retail or more, right after that the market started to implode, which I never would have expected. At least not in that extent (a 1/3 Harley Quinn Arkham Knight EX or 1/3 Deathstroke EX were sold for just 600 Euro in Germany for example!!).
