The gold leader Y-wing was just finalized a month ago, and assembled/painted a few weeks ago. And isn't being offered as a kit. It's in EFX's hands.
The ANH Star Destroyer is still being worked on. One of the last few kit parts was just identified two weeks ago. The process of laying out the thousands of scribe lines on the main hull plates it being battled out right now digitally. There is no scanning of the original, it's all broken down part by real part. One section at a time, using the best reference available.
I can not see why anyone would want a product rushed.
I'm sorry, where in my quote you cited did I say anything about rushing a product. I can't seem to find it anywhere.
The info you provided is great although, I'm sorry I have no idea who you are in relation to EFX, but what you quoted has nothing to do with my and everyone else's complaints about EFX's awful customer service, lack of updates, etc. etc.
Two years from the announcement and not a single update.
Do not even try to defend that. Anyone who does is just gonna look like an idiot.
All we are asking for is updated information.
Personally I am done with EFX.
There are multiple better sources for almost everything they make.
Here is a result of EFX's business model
My old EFX possessions:
PRC Stormy
L.E. Vader
RMQ Vader
Clone Captain
Clone Trooper
Luke Reveal Saber
Luke ESB X wing Helmet
Was also gonna get:
Boba
Biker
Star Destroyer
Y wing
1/1 Stormy
Lets see, that is somewhere in the neighborhood of $14,000.
Now I will have either one or zero EFX products
I was a HUGE fan of EFX. Now I have found replacements for everything except a Luke Reveal Saber. When the time comes, even though I actually prefer the EFX version, I will get a Rylo if I can.
I was as big an EFX fan as one could get and now I want nothing to do with them.
There is no defending this behavior and everyone should tell EFX where to go.
