Unfortunately it's not sold in North America, you can only order it from Europe

I have 4 little ones, and I had to make choices based on better business sense.
Freelancing was good tome for for 15 years but moving into OEM product for companies and my own stuff.
I will be around though
And yes! It does feel good to be free.

The line did very well... I had been asking them to let me go for a while now, maybe since 2015.
However the industry as a whole is in for a rough awakening... it's happening already... super flooded with similar stuff.... time to move on.

It’s almost not fair what they do. They have lisence as hostage but their QC is terrible for what they charge. I’ve made a concieous decision to finish off last few 1/6 piec s I’ve been chasing and to get few more 1/4s and run the other way. Prices are unreasonable , very few unique pieces from big guns are coming out and I can’t keep dumping money into products where I’m losing 25% off top immediately if I had to sell. My statues were for me to enjoy my fav characters once I have them it’s time to roll out to greener pastures.

Yeah you leaving koto, jerry selling pcs and comics going sjw plus the flooded market. Yup i agree.

I regret selling some of the koto pieces i owned (due to circumstances in my life) that you sculpted especially Magneto.

I could tell you put 100%+ into your pieces but Storm seemed like you just wanted to finish your contract because of the complaints voiced about it...Still getting her though!

Ain't that the truth, remember SS Hulk Maquette that sold for like $700, you can buy it as low as $400 now... The market is so flooded with Hulk statues..
