Molecule8 John Lennon UPDATE 5/10/18 - SCAM COMPANY!

Re: Molecule8 (New company) - John Lennon 1/6 scale figure (sculpted by KA Kim)

Hey if they can deliver quality stuff I'm all for it, competition and choices are good.

The whole thing just seems strange. Websites that disappear and come back on, claims to a lot of licenses by a company that is a complete unknown, etc. Also Kim doesn't seem to stay in one place too long. Less than 6 months ago she was going to be the face of blitzway.

Anyway I wish them success but I would like to see big talk backed up by more than an unpainted head sculpt.

I haven't seen any big talk.

I've seen a bunch of companies over the years show up a lot like this and most of the time, it doesn't end well

Aww c'mon really pixel

Comprised of a diverse team of highly creative and talented artists, designers,
sculptors and engineers, we deliver the finest detail and craftsmanship for each
and every new limited edition figure we create. Our passion drives us. Our
perfectionism defines us. Our results differentiate us. Count on Molecule8 to
transcend the current market offerings in high-end collectibles and to elevate
the competitive standards.

Also the laundry list of licenses, the insinuation of more which are secret, the advertised hyper realistic cgi sculpts....

I would be more optimistic about this company if they simply said "We hope to carve out a unique space in the collectibles market with some exciting new products." Instead that load of snake oil in their brochure makes them sound like a pack of con artists trying to swindle some old, retired "investors" out of their life savings...hopefully this will not be the case and they will turn out to be a great new company...but maybe they should let their FINISHED work do the talking whenever it is ready instead of all of that carnival barking.

Very hard to believe K A Kim would lend her name to a fly by night company. A little patience needed here instead of jumping to conclusions.

Ever hear of a little statue company named Psycho? Just getting a commission doesn't even mean you have a license for said work.

Also, because companies show up all the time looking to part the trusting from their cash makes me question the true nature of this endeavor.

Being cautious makes sense of course, I was just saying we shouldn't jump to conclusions that they are a bunch of crooks before they have even put anything up for pre-order.

No one here has given them any money I assume. If they want deposits without showing anything then I'd understand scepticism. But if their products appear on retailer websites like Sideshow there shouldn't be any issue. Some of the teasers are promising but I'm not expecting anything yet, just waiting to see what happens. We might be pleasantly surprised.

Yes, this. Syco was still scamming people after they were outed

EVERY. SINGLE. ONE. of those claims has been proven in spades by the past work of only a single member of this company. SO NO. I absolutely do not consider it big talk when it's coming from someone who has shown time and again, year after year, that they can do the walk.

You guys are absolutely ridiculous.

Are you also being paid by Star Ace and others to mix the threads up like this?

Unsubscribing from thread now because it's obviously become a mod-sanctioned ****show.

Lol thread title

They don't appear to be in a rush to announce plans. I feel the title is suitable for these parts at the moment.

[emoji38] seriously a plant for star ace? I hate harry Potter and that katniss was a joke, never owned anything from them. I'm just a guy who likes star wars and 80s toys and never been a mod.

KA Kim is a hot asian chick who does top notch head sculpts, not the almighty. You also need deep pockets, factories, connections, distribution, etc. You can't crown yourself king of high end collectibles before even showing a completed proto, now that is ridiculous.

And this sums up the problem with threads like this one. What do her looks have to do with her extraordinary talent?

Time for me to unsubscribe too.

I really don't see what all the fuss is about. Hopefully its a new company pushing themselves hard to do great things.
I'm personally looking forward to seeing what they come up with.

Exactly this. Some people misinterpreted company law when they did some basic 'digging' and the thread has gone down the toilet since then.
