Without getting into details, we inherited this project part-way through and weren't able to make some key decisions about the statue initially. We've since had it given over to us completely, so we're trying to make it more in line with something we thought more people would be into. For instance, the lowered cost.

As for the timed vs. edition size, that's slightly to do with us wanting to not take chances on the cost of it (and therefore be able to offer it at a lower price to you when it comes back up), but largely to do with a preference against timed editions. I'm a huge proponent of taking a stand for something, so declaring the edition size up front feels better to me, and seems like a stronger position to take with hard core collectors. I don't like to make big purchases without all the information up front.... Hopefully you won't mind terribly that it's a more traditional statue because the thing is super impressive and cool in person.
Thanks for the explanation Ryan, its great to hear from you

I will not cancel my order, and for sure this statue gonna look awesome. Zer0 himself is already cool :p

Just curious when you mentioned Treehouse would have 'small extra' for us who ordered earlier.. Must be something cool i assume?

That sound good. I personally think it's too early for this to thrive on a Time Edition since a lot of people don't even know this exists. I have this up on my blog but I have gotten quite a number of emails asking if the store is legit or if the news is real, even though I linked it to the official store.

You can either keep the money down on the final version, plus some incentive for being down from the start and putting up with this, or we can refund you.
Too bad, I didn't put down a deposit early for this.

Anyway, the lower price will be a welcome change along with whatever else you guys have planned for this. Absolutely loved this piece but the price was just too much considering I would invest in the whole line.

Looking forward to the details!

Don't get too excited! I was thinking some store credit so the statue would have a bit of a further discount. Maybe I'll have to figure out something more creative....

Guess, I won't be losing out much apart from the store credit. I was thinking like an alternate head or something.. Oops did I just give Ryan an idea..

Can this only be ordered in the U.S.?

I'm trying to order but it says there is no shipping information at this time...
