Sounds like something that would happen. Guy wants black PS5, post pic and others like it too. Guy decides to make a small limited batch and charge enough to get the custom work done so he gets one of his own in the end and goes for it. Launches website and starts process. Initial attempt at pre-orders/orders is a a disaster and then all of a sudden sad pathetic losers email him threatening to kill them for not being able to order one. Then they decide to not do it anymore.

All seems very plausible to me really.

Plausible? Yes
Smart/Viable? Hell no!

They were definitely in WAY over their heads. Sounds like they probably had no idea how they were even going to get them made if they are willing to back out so easy (as if they were far into the process and were invested past a website it would not make any sense to back out).

Most likely.
They didnt lost much, but they didnt thought properly about it either.

what's also strange is that they were "egging" SONY on directly to "come after them" during the whole build up time to the day the pre-orders were launched!..they went out of their way on numerous occasions trying to antagonize SONY to shut them down! with a cease & desist order!..i am wondering!?.. if initially after collecting "the data" if they wanted to use "SONY" coming after them as the bonafide claim as to why!? they could'nt move forward!!!?..but since SONY did'nt reach out in time or get an opportunity to respond..all of a sudden it's "credible threats" !? as the reason why!?..i think LICENSED re-color folks like COLORWARE would not tolerate competitors offering identical services without paying the expensive licensing fees to SONY etc..so the whole thing is really strange and fishy sounding.

The taunting Sony thing I think you are confusing this with a different company called "dbrand" (a different seller/brand that is making black faceplates only... they taunted Sony to come after them as Sony had threatened and shut down a UK startup earlier, though it seems the issue those people had was that they were using the PS logo on the plates which dbrand and SUP3R5 would not have). Basically there were 3 different faceplate companies in the span of a few months time (the UK one I cannot remember the name but it was like "PS5Plates", or something, and then there is, SUP3R5, and DBRAND).

Also the SUP3R5 thing as far as I know as just supposed to make this one thing. They were not getting into it to later compete with Colorware lol

Again I can see how this looks and sounds like a debacle... I still do not understand how it sounds fishy (though none of us know the whole story so it suppose it could be, just nothing yet has added up to enough for that personally).

One of the SONY executives i think CANADA based!?..already dropped hints that they are planning "colorways" and console "limited editions"..he (Sony Executive) went as far as to say "we hear you loud and clear"..that people are asking for a "BLACK" console!!..he alluded that the priority was ramping up production of current SKU and working around the pandemic issues..but SONY most likely won't end up neglecting a BLACK console anyways!!...so i think i will hold out for a OFFICIAL release from SONY..i am pretty confident a all BLACK console will happen!

I am sure they will. But the SUP3R5 one was not just black faceplates. It was a limited numbered run of custom PS5's and PS5 Controllers. So even if Sony does make black faceplates it will not be the same thing for collectors, but it will be great for those who just wanted an all black PS5 console.
