Nice, now the excruciating wait for the delivery, not to mention the worry of bad product recieved. Come on Yamato, this is your time to nail it and get with the big boys!

I so agree... Vallos.., I decided to wait for any more statues from them tell I get her and Her Garden
"B.W. L.E." ... speaking of Broken Wings.. Vallos.. did MR. Sosa sign yours yet (?),
I just got an email yesterday confirming my order from Yamato USA, but their telling me, he didn't sign mine and
they are going to have to ship it to him and
add a small shipping cost to my order....uggg.. I'm PM'ing MR. Sosa to let him know.

There has been some issues, mainly paint application, which comparing them to other companies **CoughsideshowCough**, it is not that bad. For PVC, the complaints were visible seems on some statues, and for Resin, the issue I had was pegs not aligning (Discovery). Overall, I think Yamato does a good job. I just hope they hit it out of the park with Ritual 1:4 since I feel this will really turn heads if they do.

Well I am definitely looking to acquire her once she is released. If they do knock this out the park, it will go down as one of the top female statues in resin form from any company.

You know it has to be impressive if Cap70 is interested.

Update; Eric said he's taking care of the issue w/ Her Garden BW/LE..

Congrats Vallos.. I hope I'm close to being in line, mine arrives here soon too
Hope ours are low numbers

I agree w/Ritual... ether she's going to be a *epic fail* or one of the best statues (IMO) to date from Yamato... can't wait !

Has anyone ever done any reports on how much it costs a company when they decide to cut costs in production and quality control compared to having to replace/repair statues and the customer relations issues when a product has several defects?

Seems like it's just a bad idea to try to cut costs in production or in quality then have to make up for it on the other end.
