I wonder if BBTS will ever pull it... or just leave my Brody PO up for eternity.
I seriously don't understand how he just says "We regret to inform you..." and posts that which is just a screencap of what NECA sends to their retailers. Like that's it? Nothing else? I still don't understand how it gets to the preorder point and then the estate pulls out? I mean just tell us that. He talks so much and can't explain it? I'm honestly surprised so many people replying on twitter are understanding. He gives no explanation at all and they're all like "aw shucks." I at least complained lol.
I have plans of displaying him inside the mouth of my Mike Schultz SCO 1/6 bust with holding machete and wearing bandana going down the hatch emulating the scene of all scenes.
Same, and with that, cancelled Quint immediately after. I would get Bruce without the humans, but not Quint without at least Brody, Brody is my most favorite human in the movie.
RoboSpidey?
What difference could an explanation possibly make?
Some fan will read the explanation and figure out how to resolve the issue for Neca, tell them, and the figure will end up getting released?
The figure is not coming out...

One thing is that the actor or estate typically get final say on the product. Even after an initial agreement is reached, the estate will need to approve final product. If they aren't happy with how it looks, what is included, or just decide they don't want it released after seeing it, they can kill the deal.
Another area you can run into issues is with competing parties claiming they hold the rights. Could be different members of the family, could be a company. One party threatens to sue both the licensor and the licensee unless product is pulled or they are cut into the licensing deal.
And finally, it could come down to another manufacturer claiming they have the rights to produce Roy Schieder's likeness related to Jaws merchandise.
Basically, all stuff that can pop up once a product has been announced.
