There’s only like 20 people clamoring for a 2.0 Ledger that are on this forum lmao. The majority isn’t. The well hasn’t dried up. The problem is that they just take forever with production output.
No, people are actually upset that the InArt Ledger has become so dated, so quickly that they actually want InArt to try their hand at it again so soon instead of just upgrading to a better available version. That thought process goes beyond this forum, you know that.
Ledger Joker is what put them on the map. You say people aren’t clamoring for a 2.0, but the people that still defend the 1.0 would jump to the new 2.0 immediately just because it’s made by InArt.
You’re in every thread calling their competitor’s products cheap toys.
I’m certain you’d PO InArt Ledger 2.0,
sight unseen.
It gives the impression the well has dried up when they’re only eight releases in and talks of another Joker is on everyone’s mind only one year after its release.
We never know what they’ll actually commit to producing, therefore any hope in a tease of theirs falls flat. People were excited for Reeve Superman despite its rough appearance, just because of who was going to make it. Placing InArt in a light where they can do no wrong and “it’s just a quick prototype”. Well, where’s the revision?
I have the Inart 1.0 and would like a better version, though with the The Hot Toys new version, and so soon after the 1.0 release by Inart, does it make sense financially for Inart or any company to put another Ledger into production at this time?
That would mean they go back on their word. They said 2.0’s are not their thing, wanting to put out a rounded out, complete, final release with each figure they make.
That would make people hesitate to purchase from them. Imagine you start collecting their LOTR line, they get six figures into the Fellowship then all of a sudden, they start making 2.0’s of the figures you just bought. Now they’re releasing upgraded 2.0’s alongside 1.0’s of figures they’re just getting to under the same line.
How many people would go out of their way to commit to an entire LOTR line, to then only upgrade them all in a few years at these rising prices for each?
A 2.0 Ledger might help them financially at first, but in the long run could really hurt them if not enough time passes by. Especially if there’s a drop in production from prototype again. They need to put out far more product before they start to dig into their catalog of characters they’ve already made.
