The official ask Popcultureshock thread

Hi, Jerry.Just a few more questions for you, which are=
A.Now that you've said that the MK9 1/4 Sub Zero statue is in the process of being painted, can you say when it will be going up for pre order?
B.Can you please confirm if you will DEFINETLY be distributing the MK9 1/4 Sub Zero statue through sideshow collectables, as a lot of international buyers[including myself] have personal suppliers who can order stuff from their website, thus making it more of a sure thing of getting one when it becomes available for pre order, and not having to worry about missing out on one[which I SIMPLY CAN'T!!!]
C.When do you estimate the new website with the shopping cart system will be active?
D.And finally, please say that you WON'T have the 1/4 MK9 Sub Zero statue in an email lottery, as pretty much everyone who already has the MK9 1/4 Scorpion statue[including myself] will be hanging out for the MK9 1/4 Sub Zero statue, and would be EXTREAMLY disappointed if they missed out on MK9 Subs.Cheers!
P.S, Welcome back to the forums also!

QUESTIONS:

Which is a better seller, Mortal Kombat or Street Fighter?

Is it possible to make sports related statues? I would buy a Mike Tyson or Michael Jordan.

Hi Jerry, in a previous newsletter, you previewed a digital sculpt of MK Goro. Just curious, are there any updates about Goro? Thanks!

He hasn't released that many MK so in total numbers it's definitely SF. Otherwise the ES that Jerry tries to set is so they would sell out, and they pretty much do. So you'd just have to compare ES between pieces to find that out. At a guess I'd say SF.

John Cleary is doing Goro and he had to take a break to jump in and help on another sculpt. He is back on Goro now and I think we should be finished in the next week

Thats like asking which of your children you like more

I am not a sports guy so I wouldnt trust myself to do a good job. I believe that to create a great statue you have to also be a fan of the characters

I meant Klassic Sub Zero is being painted. Not MK9

The regular version of Klassic Sub Zero *might* be available through Sideshow, but the exclusive will only be available through us directly

New website should be up very soon. Before the next pre-order.

In the final steps of approvals. Been a long process.

With capcom approvals is it safe to said @ least 3 street fighter statues will go up for pre order. for next year

As it looks like it took 6months to get dhalsim up (Which is not a bad thing )

Thanks for all the answer Jerry YOU are the most awesome are you going to be @ comic con SD 2013.

Last Question - you said that Revisit will be shown in July will the revisit be after Dhalsim pre order wise I mean .

Dhalsim is the next SF 1:4 scale. After that we may do the first 'Redemption' character or, if approvals go well, we may put up Blanka.

I dont think I am displaying at SDCC as I couldnt get a full booth and I didnt want to squeeze into a friends booth.

However, Im going to ask Mattel and Capcom if they are interested in displaying some of our pieces.

Glad to see you on the forum again

We are working on two simultaneously. We'll see which gets approved first.

So looking forward to seeing Blanka and what the redemption statue will look like

I'm glad to see you back around and posting Jerry We do appreciate all this ;p

Question for you: Are things like the PCS EXs going to still be a thing in the future (i.e. reptile and alternate sagat). Like a possibility for another paint scheme ninja *cough* ermac *cough* with the classic subby or alt costumes for dhalism?

[Bruticus]

I was under the imperssion Jerry that MK9 Subby would be made before classic?

At what stage are the MK9 Subby at today?

I gatta ask....wouldn't the regular be the same thing?

I mean, Scorpions eyes are always white. So would the regular be white acrylic eyes like the Sub-zero SS EX?

I'm just asking because I wanna know if I need to order both.

Chris

[MrYac]

when might we get some more info on Goro (at least which line he'll fall in)
