[Pop Culture Shock] Novidades e Novas licenças 2015

I agree.

I just dont want people to think that the better styrofoam guarantees no breakage.

As for Lion-O, the real reason there was hardly any breakage is there are no small/thin parts. Had little to do with the styrofoam.

Many companies will beef up or modify the sculpture to avoid these small/thin breakable parts. This leads to statues that, to my eye, look cheap and more like toys. I try to make our pieces as dynamic and '3D' as possible which means I dont shy away from small/thin breakable parts.

I think this is why PCS has been embraced by the collector community.

If you closely compare pics of my Scorpion with competitors you will see (I hope) that mine has a more 3 dimensional feel to it

If companies dont pass costs to consumers we go out of business.

You cant create a retail price based on whats 'fair'. You create it based on what your costs are plus a reasonable profit.

I have much higher costs than bigger companies as I dont make anywhere near as many statues as they do. You get volume discounts in China. So I pay probably 25% more for a statue in China than a bigger company does which means I probably make even less profit than they do.

My profit per piece is around $25 after I pay sculptors, overhead, licensor's, distributors, China and shipping.

If it ever goes below that Its just not worth my time.

Some companies will accept a smaller profit margin and turn out more pieces at a lower quality to make up for it. Thats not how I want to run my business.

- O personagem Bishamon, do game Darkstalkers estava nos planos, mas devido as baixas vendas do Lord Raptor a estátua foi cancelada.

- No momento ele está desenvolvendo outro personagem feminino, visto que as vendas da Morrigan e Felicia foram boas, mas os demais personagens terão que esperar o lançamento de um novo game da franquia para ganhar popularidade suficiente.
