Why would this piss anybody off?? Every company has sales from time to time.

I wonder when Prime 1 Studio will announce anything, show anything regarding Street Fighter or Ghost in the Shell ?

I read a post the other day concerning a freelance sculptor who appears to have caused a delay to a 'project which has been teased to you all during last year'. At first i thought Street Fighter. Then i thought maybe not, as i'd assume Prime 1 would be using 3D data from the game.


Hi all,
Although we do not discuss any issue in our product development process but we feel that it is important that we share our bad experience with untrustworthy individuals so that others won't fall prey to their cheats. We have engaged a freelance artist that we have gotten in contact with in October 2017 for a project which has never been completed or even started even after deposit has been paid. Some might have known his reputation and dishonest action already towards his customers (private commissioned) and producers including Prime1. The artist official name is Chris Patterson also known as “Kris Lee”. We are writing this to prevent this happening to any other producer or customers. To add this, we want to apologize for the delay on this project which has been teased to you all during last year. It was planned to be showcased at our last Wonder Festival Winter 2018 but unfortunately it didn’t occur.

From what i could tell, Kris Lee was behind Ryu for PCS. He doesn't appear to have been around long. Maybe the Prime 1 project proved too much for his skill set? although he does appear quite talented.

I assumed Prime 1 would be using 3D data from the Street Fighter game with the intention of creating all the characters from the game, as Prime 1 appear to enjoy releasing as much as possible in a short time frame. I do wonder if there are enough collectors out there with wallets big enough.

I don’t see why it should make anyone angry. As mentioned sales happen all the time. Try collecting Weta products where statues sell for 60% off their retail price within the same year they were originally solicited. Not to mention this is hardly a sale for anyone having to pay $200-$300 in shipping by ordering direct.

You took the IQ test and the results were negative...

Seriously, do not expect making any profits by collecting toy statues in Finland. Shipping + VAT + tolls =
