Hopefully the rest of Series 2 all has the same expected Q2 ship date. I would guess they do. Can't wait for Raven. Seems unlikely, they’re not supposed to go up for preorder until early next year. Danhausen was moved up to help with his medical costs. |

Danhausen was moved up to help with his medical costs. I think he just moved the pre order up, personally, but the production schedule likely hasn't changed since Danhausen was always scheduled for Series 2. He's held off on posting Series 2 pre-orders because Series 1 was delayed and isn't in people's hands yet. We've seen Bundy be just as far along as Danhausen prior to about a week ago when we saw the MOC images. I'm optimistic. |

I think it's great the way Zombie shows the production samples and protos before the painted piece and then the MOC images, gets you hype for the figure. I love that with new Series there's a chance the carding colour scheme will be changed too. Really well done by him, I like it! |

Intrigued to see how the guy claiming to not like a whole series of countries comes out of this as the face. By no means excusing the post, but imagine saying one guy picking on you is why you hate the UK.
Shame too as I love fullyposeable and they swear by him.

I remember being like 12 and getting scammed on ebay by a US seller. So naturally I have hated America ever since.

Is this guy honestly for real? Using an entire country because someone from it contradicts his own opinions. Dude, go away 😭

Wulf is a good artist but for whatever reason, he thinks since he was the first person to do Hasbro related art (which I'm not sure if that's even true or not), everyone is "ripping him off" and he's become quite bitter about it. His customs ideas are creative, but they can get pretty sloppy as that guy was pointing out.

How the Wulf of hasbro street claims everyone ripping him off and being salty about it & the hate towards Uk collectors.
He had to rip of someone Initially ie the likes of Rudat & D Price. He can be the first but he won’t be the last .
I’m not a customiser but I personally would not be happy to sell a custom if the final product finish looked like that .

sorry but having looked at some of Wulf's work, it's hard to tell they're all by the same person!!
some figures he's showing are absolutely nailed - Butch Reed, Jake Roberts, Adrian Street (though he should have a smiling face) and Big John Studd to name a few are just awesome
but then you look at figures like that Demento, or Busick, or even the Road Warriors and it just looks like a child made them

I do know he makes at least 15-20 each for his club, and from what I've seen, those tend to look a little more rushed and sloppy than the one-offs you mentioned that he nailed. |

That Ivan Koloff custom on his page is pretty sick.

I don't know what this club is about, but if it involves members subscribing to see his work, figures like that Demento do nothing to inspire confidence that his ability is worth spending money on

Not to get too into the weeds about this, but yeah he has a private club where he makes 1 figure a month. From what I remember, he was unhappy with the lack of the responses on his social media, so he basically took his ball and went home, set up a private twitter for his club where people "truly appreciate his work". Now call me crazy, but if you want people to see and appreciate your work, you don't put it behind a paywall account. Anyway, he makes up to like 25-30 figures a month for his club and the people who repost their figures seem to like them, so good for them I guess. He's capable of doing great work, but the club figures always look rushed to me. To be fair, he mentioned in one of his rants yesterday that the Damien Demento was a reject figure and he just sent them out to his club members for free since he wasn't happy with it. He's a prickly fella. I like looking at his work and was sad he went behind the paywall. I understand it's frustrating to have a bunch of followers and it feels like nobody is buying your stuff. But as someone who has nearly 2K followers on IG, maybe like 5% of those followers actually buy stuff from me. I'm not going to punish the rest of my followers just because they're interested in what I do but don't wanna to buy my stuff. That's just weird to me. |
