Should every statue you make be this size and price? Of course not. But if it makes sense with some of Sony's premier characters, I would hate to see you choose not to make it, because of a few pieces of negative feedback you received. I'm sure lots of people you may never hear from on a forum, will love the statue.
Just my 2 cents anyway. I also own your Delsin Rowe statue (did skip the Journey one though as the game doesn't interest me). Really like your work and hope you continue making great statues
SCEA franchises I would purchase statues from:
- Beyond: Two Souls
- Folklore
- God Of War
- Heavenly Sword
- Horizon: Zero Dawn
- Infamous
- Jak and Daxter
- Killzone
- Knack
- Lair
- LittleBigPlanet (standard Sackboy only)
- Ratchet & Clank
- Resistance
- Sly Cooper
- Starhawk
- Syphon Filter
- The Order 1886
- Uncharted
Thanks

Hey now. I believe there has been a misunderstanding. My feedback was not meant to be perceived as negative. I am not stating that Mr. Barth - and the entire product development team - should disown any more high-valued items on the basis of size and price. My concern is that thus far, a number of character collectible merchandise has been targeted to those collectors that prefer large-scale items. Don't get me wrong. I am floored by the statue. My pockets, though, are not up to snuff and never will be. If you look at the God of War brand on the PlayStation Gear Store, the only affordable Kratos you will see is the POP! vinyl, and I am not fond of those little things. There is the DC Direct figurine of Kratos from a few years back that has long been sold out even before the site was put up, and right now NECA's action figure release is coming up. But what if someone doesn't want articulation? What if someone cringes at the sight of joints and ball pegs? What they want another alternative to the DC Direct figurine (and the God of War Ascension CE "statue"). What if I desire something from the amazing work Mr. Barth and his team are capable of? I would like to see both sides, both ends on the spectrum, satisfied. Or at the very least a choice meet at the middle (say $200 to $250 at most).
And I agree with Mike1888. I've only played the first game, Resistance: Fall of Man, so I am not sure of the other entries. Nevertheless, the Chimera - of assorted class structures - are very interesting specimens concept-wise, and I would like to see them put to some use.
Also, Flower and Flow. I enjoyed those two more than Journey. Still, would be cool if there were mini "statues" for each game, so that one could create a That Game Company collection.
