Arahom just wrote this for all of us
I wanted to share with you our strategy going forward
"Every time you guys order directly from us, it is surely better because we make more money! I don't want to sound "greedy" but this is of course a business and profits are what allow us to keep producing these statues.
We will start offering (starting with Minotaur and Ares) Website Exclusive statues with added bonuses from now on, so we can increase the number of purchases direct from our website.
I have thought about a point system too, like Sideshow has, but this has to be carefully considered yet.
Also we are implementing payment plans, so you guys don't need to pay it all upfront for a pre-order that will still take a few months to deliver.
Just keep one very important thing in mind. ARH fans and collectors can help us THE MOST by pre-ordering our statues once they become available.
Pre-Orders help us a lot by giving us an idea of how many statues to produce and also help to finance the production in China.
Thanks for your guys support! We have so many cool statues coming out this year!"
Also:
"We will probably not produce in-house AP statues anymore. APs have been a long time part of ARH history, and it has helped me so much to keep the company moving forward, but on the other hand, it takes so much of my time, that I am not able to take care of other important areas of ARH.
From now on we will introduce the "EX - ARH Exclusive" line that will have differentiated bonuses only available through our website. I am also back into sculpting for ARH, and I can only tell you that I could not be happier!
I have been working for the past couple of months on our new CONAN statue diorama, and I can only say, this is the MOST bold statue we ever made! I cannot show you guys pictures yet since we are still waiting for licensor’s approval, but I can just give you a hint...
“Conan The Sacrifice” - A 1/4th scale diorama with Conan fighting a gigantic snake with a big axe to save the girl!” This will be epic!"
