Re: Candyman & Friend! Monty productions! Sculpts by MG! SPACES NOW OPEN!!!

Hey peeps so there's a misunderstanding my fault but no money will be paid apart from the canes until the proto is shown :)
 
Re: Candyman & Friend! Monty productions! Sculpts by MG! SPACES NOW OPEN!!!

cool..Mike funds are coming for the cane this week...:)
 
Re: Candyman & Friend! Monty productions! Sculpts by MG! SPACES NOW OPEN!!!

with all the talent and proven people on this project...I believe this will be fine...:)
 
Re: Candyman & Friend! Monty productions! Sculpts by MG! SPACES NOW OPEN!!!

With this sculpt and Rahmier 84 on painting? Its gonna be perfection.

I was talking with Greatlakes about this. Since many / some of us are stateside does it make more sense for us to have the sculpts shipped to us once they are painted and haired rather than send them overseas just to be boxed up?

Not really man the boxes and clothing box sleeves are being sent direct to me so I can package them up with the COA's as I'd rather not ship it piece by piece...... The boxes will be amazing and should fit in a detolf for those who want to display them.

Does that make any sense? :rotfl

I will not be taking any Payments of any kind until the proto is shown and you are happy if something is off we will fix it before going ahead.......I'm currently working on a deal to have Golden ticket COAs.:hi5:

Agreed. I rather have my items sent to me directly from Jake instead of going overseas just to be sent back to me. The less it has to be in transit, the better.

Id be down for that. Save on shipping and Vat.
 
Re: Candyman & Friend! Monty productions! Sculpts by MG! SPACES NOW OPEN!!!

There wouldn't be no charges the shipping of the items is paid by me as I was having them all put together in their custom boxes here. It seems pointless shipping back to you guys a figure without a head in a decent display box that's not what I wanted to aim for it takes away the joy if opening this beaut. However if that's the route you'd like to go I'd cut the boxes out because they'd be pointless and just have them sent in normal boxes with the clothing and COA.

Also it would be pointless supplying bodies if that was the case as you'd still have to build them or would you prefer the bodies?

Works for me :)
What ever you guys decide is cool only thing in that case that would be sent to me is the clothes.
I'd do the COA with the clothes and just ship them in jiffy bags saves a ton on shipping.

Uk people will still get the full figure treatment with box if they'd like it as your sculpts would have to be sent to uk.
What ever you guys choose is ok with me as long as you get the sets that's what's important. :)

Owen can you clarify, is shipping to us already included in the prices you have quoted or do I still need to pay for shipping from you to me?

I'd probably go without the boxes and body if I still have to pay shipping.
 
Re: Candyman & Friend! Monty productions! Sculpts by MG! SPACES NOW OPEN!!!

For me it is not about the boxing / unboxing. I think it is the risk factor of shipping overseas twice... makes me super nervous! I have been burned by overseas shipping in the past unfortunately. The figure was lost and the insurance only paid a little fraction of what it was worth. And it was a limited run so there were no backups. If the painted sculpts are stateside I just feel inclined to keep them stateside just because of risk. It is not a matter of the box, etc. As matter of fact I wouldn't mind still getting a box with a dressed wonka body + oompa outfit.

How much would overseas shipping be in regards to insurance on a $1000 figure?

Hey the only shipping price is the end shipping price at the end which I'm yet to work out the shipping towards the end, Jake shipping the sculpts to me would be paid by me not you guys as it's unfair on you guys to pay that.

I'll leave it up to you guys to decide :)

Hey man I understand that it's up to you it's all going to be tracked etc I need to get a price like I previously said I'm laying for the shipping from Jake to me as everything else is being delivered to me. It makes sense to send them to me for the full figure.

You get this worry with every piece you order it's taking a risk otherwise no one would ever get these beauty haha!
 
Re: Candyman & Friend! Monty productions! Sculpts by MG! SPACES NOW OPEN!!!

if I could make one request for mine....it would be to have the eyes painted in a different direction.....everything else I'm good with which includes the shipping over seas....:)

Noted any preference ? :)

And did you want yours shipped here to be put together with Box etc?
 
Re: Candyman & Friend! Monty productions! Sculpts by MG! SPACES NOW OPEN!!!

yeah I don't mind it being shipped back to you for assembly...I just want to make sure the package is safely insured....like I said...I will be vocal about these things more often because I would hate to add to my sucky run this year...:)...lol

No I can fully understand that I know how you feel as it's happened to me a few times.
I'm doing 2 smaller custom boxes for both to keep he shipping price lower as the box I had was massive!

I will have them insured no worries :) I just need to know who's doing what I will only do boxes for guys shipping heads here as it seems pointless otherwise.
So if anyone doesn't want their heads sent here please pm me.

Let's wait and see what the proto has to shown few weeks away!

I will still likely want to go with the box. If I were to have the heads shipped to me after painting, I think it would still be worth having the dressed wonka body, oompa clothing and boxes sent from you. I know it sounds backwards, but its more of a logistical thing paired with having been burned on overseas shipping before. I will be curious to see once we get further down the road to see how much the cost to insure / ship will be.

Again man shipping will be the same price without or with heads so either way it wouldn't matter :rotfl
It seems pointless doing it sent backwards you wouldn't be saving anything. I've had a few pm's request ion they be sent here so let you guys choose if your the only one who wants the sculpt Jon that's cool man. :)

I'll leave it up to you guys :)
