Hello fellow collectors and 1/6 enthusistist! Today I want to address a cancer to our community that you as well as I have been allowing to grow.
SOVEREIGN STUDIOS!
For as long as I've known the world of 1/6 I've heard of this guy(s). Dated back all the way from OSW. They've gained a reputation for a lack of professionalism to complete orders in a timely matter and at times at all. My downfall (like many of you) was that I chosed to be ignorant to the perpetuating excusations made to these guys and take a dive myself.
A little over a month back Sovereign's work began showing up on eBay under the username foreverannoyed. I was baffled by my discovery because I thought Sovereign had many ongoing orders to address. How in the world can they find time to sell anything else. So I went ahead and checked the feedback and found that there have been many satisfied cuatomers. I even took the liberties to email the seller and ask if he had the items in hand. However the seller wasn't the Sean from Sovereign we knew. This seller was NAME REMOVED FOR IDENTITY PROTECTION, Shawn's assistant (for a lack of a better term) he answered emails for Shawn and is is charge of getting out orders to customers. foreverannoyed told me that the items were in possession and was ready to ship upon recieveing payment. He also explained that the auctions were listed in order to make money for shipping costs and what not to get the past orders out to people... that was his story and he's sticking to it. Okay I'll bite seems believable, and communication was immpecible.
Long story short I ordered on the 2nd of Decemeber. After I paid for the item there was no email from foreverannoyed confirming the item was shipped out. I emailed him a week later and I never got a response. So I wait another week and email him again. 9 days later on Christmas night foreverannoyed decided to respond. He left a brief message asking for my eBay username and date of purchased and that he needed that information to get my tracking number, I responded immediately. He didn't respond until this afternoon. In my email there was a tracking number and a message about someone dying in his family. The tracking number only states that he had only shipped it out today. I opted to respond to his email telling him how unprofessional he is and his responses proved just that.
This guy wrote me at the very least 5 emails within the next hour with insults involving homosexuals, transexual and even told me to go masturbate to 1/6 figures. He also stated that our money was not important to him nor anyone involved with Soveregin Studios and that their work is top notch bar none. I gotta say I am a bit humored by some of his emails but it's with these emails that made me question if there is any truth in what he's saying. He didn't have the time or courtesy to email me earlier to tell me there would be a delay cause of this "tradegy" but he can write me 5 emails packed childish gay bashing (they weren't short either each one was at least 5 paragraphs long).
I encourage all of you to stop feeding these money hungry scondrels who care nothing for their customers and even more importantly I've notice a trend that leaves their "museum quality work" in question. You see lately a bunch of members here have received unfinished Indy jackets. I can go on about my opinion on their sculptwork too but thats not the issue.... besides I doubt anyone even ordered anything. So that was my awesome story about these professionals and pioneers of the custom community. The rest is up to you.
btw. Darklord Dave and all the other guys here. Isn't it about time you guys do something about their account here? I mean how are they any different from Chris Howes?

This can't go down well. I just hope I one day get my Newt figure from Shaun , it feels so long ago since I ordered it.
