Chronicle Collectibles?

[Newbieguy]

Never heard of them till recently. How is quality say compared to SSC, Hot Toys, Prime 1, etc? Thanks!!

My ranking of those companies:

1. Prime 1
2. Hot Toys
3. SSC
4. Chronicle Collectibles

Having said that, CC's ED-209 and Cain were greatly detailed but the products they have been pushing out have really suffered in terms of quality - 1/4 Endo, 1/4 Guardian, 1:2 scale busts and to a lesser extent, the Jurassic Park bust.

I have ED-209 & 1:2 Arnie BD Bust, happy with both.

Hoping BO Rex is better painted than the 1:5 Bust.

Not sure Hot Toys counts as a statue company?

I have their ED and Cain, no complaints here.

OP asked how CC fares against Hot Toys too.

Oh, duh, lol.
I guess I didnt read it very well!

Assumed statue because of subforum and Chronicle not making 1/6 figures....yet.

That is pretty harsh, I would put them ahead of both SS and HT for the most part. We haven't even seen the 1/4 Endos in hand yet, but SS nor HTs versions are/will be very good either. I have their Anubis, Terror Dog, and multiple POs. Their Robocop maquettes look great, I just don't collect that line. They are new and they get some slack for that, we will know more as they get cranking out more pieces.

I like Chronicle, they are a class act. I have had to cancel 2 POs from them and both times they do it quickly and fairly and don't give you the runaround while doing it.

If you have to cancel for any reason, you get all payments refunded minus 10% of the order which you get a coupon for to use on any future order. This does not expire either. So you dont lose out if you have to cancel for any reason which is way better than most other cancelation policies like PCS (who are TERRIBLE at cancelling POs) and SSC which are great at cancelling POs but both you lose your deposit on.

I have the 1/2 BD Arnold bust and the Genysis Endo Bust from them and I'm very happy with both.

TRex bust comes in on Fri so will see how that looks...

I vote humbs up for Chronicle!

King Conan will be my first Chronicle statue. I am really looking forward to it.

I forgot I also had the CC Endo bust. It was well done, but the paint was not up to par for my taste. It was not 100% their fault though, as some reason they could not get the correct paint into China, but still don't know why they picked such a dull substitute.

Same hereason. I was also tempted by the Starship Troopers Tanker Bug piece, could be a cool little side line!

They cancelled that entire line due to low sales.
