I only recall a couple of posts by Nick and myself that this comment could be directed at. I feel you've misunderstood.
Actually a-dev, I wasn't really referring to you or Nick specifically. I've seen a number of facebook posts, where people say "I'm just going to halt my payments, until I see more in-hand pics/videos", essentially suggesting that they will make JazzInc wait for payments that they had already agreed to. I don't recall a lot of Nick's posts, but I've seen/read plenty of yours over the years, and I know you've been a collector for a long time.
The issue I have with those facebook posts, is that it seems many (potentially newcomers) don't realize that JazzInc is not some big corporation or something, where individual piece sales don't matter in the grand scheme of things. With JazzInc, every sale counts, and that's how they've grown.
Sure there are some issues, not denying that. But anyone who has been exposed to JazzInc dioramas (which is what they always were) prior to the licensing agreements, etc., have seen a progression in quality and complexity with each release. Every piece has had issues that could be nit-picked or complained about. But at the same time, each piece has been a step forward from the last one.
All of the dramatics (and in some cases, hyperbole) on the Facebook group is going to change things for the worse, not the better. Joost will have no motivation to involve the collector community, when it comes to product launches, feedback, etc... I'm expecting that the days of having potential purchasers provide feedback, or vote on features during the design phase are over.
Essentially, they are going to have a response rate, and a return policy, similar to Sideshow, Hot Toys, etc.. And it's too bad, really.
