Re: Molecule8 (New company)
But their hype machine seems based on the Trump mentality.
We, the collectors, are now joined in a great national effort to rebuild our hobby and restore its promise for all of our people.
Together, we will determine the course of high end 1/6th scale and 1/4th scale collectibles and the world for many, many years to come. We will face challenges. We will confront hardships. But we will get the job done.
Molecule8, however, has a very special meaning because today they are not merely making 1/6th scale figures, but transcend the current market offerings in high-end collectibles and to elevate the competitive standards.
For too long, other manufacturers have made cheap figures while the people have bore the cost. Hot Toys flourished, but the people did not share in its wealth. Enterbay prospered but the jobs left and the factories closed.
The established high-end collectible figure market protected itself, but not the collectors of our country. Their victories have not been your victories. Their triumphs have not been your triumphs. And while they celebrated in our nation's hobby, there was little to celebrate for struggling collectors all across our land.
That all changes starting right here and right now, because this moment is your moment.
It belongs to you.
It belongs to everyone gathered here today and everyone watching all across the forums.
This is your day.
This is your celebration.
And this, Molecule8, is your savior.
What truly matters is not which party company controls your wallets, but whether our wallets are controlled by the people.
May 2017, will be remembered as the month the collectors became the rulers of this hobby again.
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.
The forgotten collectors of our country will be forgotten no longer. Everyone is listening to you now. You came by the tens of millions to become part of a historic movement, the likes of which the world has never seen before.
At the center of this movement is a crucial conviction that a high-end collectible manufacturer exists to serve its customers. Collectors want great high-end collectibles for their children, perfectionism for their families and accurate, detailed, museum grade pieces for themselves.
These are just and reasonable demands of righteous people and a righteous public.
But for too many of our collectors, a different reality exists.
Iconic characters not given the Molecule8 treatment trapped in poverty in our hobby, rusted out factories scattered like tombstones across the landscape of our nation.
An collecting system flush with cash but which leaves our young and beautiful collectors deprived of all quality.
And the recasts and the gangs and the barebones figures that have stolen too many lives and robbed our collection of so much unrealized potential. This carnage stops right here and stops right now.
We are one niche group, and their pain is our pain.
Their dreams are our dreams, and their success will be our success. We share one heart, one home and one glorious destiny.
The oath Molecule8 takes today is an oath of allegiance to all collectors.
For many decades we've enriched high-end collectible figure manufacturers at the expense of the collector's industry, subsidized the armies of Iron Men while allowing for the very sad depletion of our figures' quality.
We've defended other competitors' borders while refusing to defend our own. And we've spent trillions and trillions of dollars overseas while high-end collectible figure collecting's infrastructure has fallen into disrepair and decay.
We've made other figure manufacturers rich while the wealth, strength and confidence of our collecting has dissipated over the horizon.
One by one, the factories shuttered and left our shores with not even a thought about the millions and millions of collectors that were left behind.
The wealth of our middle class has been ripped from their homes and then redistributed all across the world. But that is the past, and now we are looking only to the future. Molecule8.
We assembled here today are issuing a new decree to be heard in every detolf, in every foreign display case and in every toy collecting forum. From this day forward, a new vision will govern our land.
From this day forward, it's going to be only collectors first, collectors first. Every decision on trade, on licenses, on advanced doll bodies, on the quality you will come to expect from Molecule8, will be made to benefit the collectors and collectors' families. We must protect our borders from the ravages of other companies making inferior products, and destroying our figures.
Protection will lead to great prosperity and strength. Molecule8 will fight for you with every breath in it's body, and it will never ever let you down.
Collectors will start winning again, winning like never before.
We will bring back our passion.
We will bring back our craftsmanship.
We will bring back our perfectionism, and we will bring back our dreams.
We will build new Lennon heads all across our wonderful hobby.
We will get our people off of the current market offerings and back to perfection, rebuilding our hobby with Molecule8's hands and Molecule8's labor.
We will follow two simple rules: Buy Molecule8 and hire Molecule8.
We will seek friendship and goodwill with the current market offerings in high-end collectibles of the world, but we do so with the understanding that it is the right of all current market offerings in high-end collectibles to put their own interests first.
We do not seek to impose our way of life on anyone, but rather to let it shine as an example.
We will shine for everyone to follow.
We will re-enforce old alliances and form new ones and unite the civilized world against the radical current market offerings in high-end collectibles and to elevate the competitive standards, which we will eradicate completely from the face of the earth.
At the bedrock of Molecule8's quality will be a total allegiance to the collectors, and through our loyalty to Molecule8 we will rediscover our loyalty to each other.
When you open your heart to Sideshow, there is no room for prejudice.
The Bible tells us how good and pleasant it is when God's people live together in unity. We must speak our minds openly, debate our disagreements honestly, but always pursue solidarity. When high-end figure collectors are united, Molecule8 is totally unstoppable. There should be no fear. We are protected and we will always be protected. We will be protected by the highly creative and talented artists, designers,
sculptors and engineers of Molecule8. And most importantly, we will be protected by God.
Finally, we must think big and dream even bigger. In this hobby, we understand that our results are only living as long as they is striving. We will no longer accept the competitive standards who are all talk and no action, constantly complaining but never doing anything about it.
The time for empty talk is over. Now arrives the hour of action.
Do not allow anyone to tell you that it cannot be done. No challenge can match the heart and fight and spirit of Molecule8. We will not fail. We will deliver the finest detail and craftsmanship for each and every new limited edition figure we create, and we will thrive and prosper again.
We stand at the birth of a new millennium, ready to unlock the mysteries of Molecule8's advanced technology, to free the earth from the miseries of a cheap Hot Toys release, and to harness the energies, industries and technologies of tomorrow.
A new national pride will stir ourselves, lift our sights and heal our divisions. It's time to remember that old wisdom our soldiers will never forget, that whether we are black or brown or white, we all bleed the same red blood of patriots.
We all enjoy the same glorious freedoms and we all salute the same great Molecule8 quality.
And whether a knockoff is released in the urban sprawl of OneSixthKit or the windswept plains of ebay, they look up at the same night sky, they fill their heart with the same dreams and they are infused with the breath of life by the same almighty creator.
So to all doll collectors in every city near and far, small and large, from mountain to mountain, from ocean to ocean, hear these words: You will never be ignored again. Your voice, your hopes and your dreams will define the Molecule8 destiny. And your courage and goodness and love will forever guide us along the way.
Together we will make the high-end collectible figure market strong again, we will make high-end collectible market wealthy again, we will make the high-end collectible figure market proud again, we will make the high-end collectible figure market safe again.
And, yes, together we will make collecting great again.
Thank you.
God bless you.
And God bless Molecule8.
