You aren’t reading to me, those test-shots exist because there is tooling. For a reason that I cannot understand they used the same badly done Lion-O Mattel to create the injection mold. I don’t think they’re in time to correct such a serious structural issue spending thousands of extra dollars on it. In the past Super7 failed to fix simpler issues such as the wider crotch in similar stages.
You are making assumptions and you don’t know this to be fact. You once stated you are a publicist, so unless you manufacture toys for a living you really don’t know what a company can or can’t do before going into production. I said this once before you are free to contact Brian Flynn on his FB account with your concerns. Try doing that instead of constantly posting about it in various forums. Only Brian & Super7 can make the changes to the figures.

You’re more worried about me and you aren’t able to assimilate or accept the facts, the example I gave you in the post you quoted is that, a fact.
It’s obvious that Super7 visits these forums and others, it’s also important to comment on our concerns as customers here.
Uh huh, ok keep telling yourself that if it makes you feel better.
Any news? No sample paints yet?
Not yet but I was told we’ll see wave 2 at Toy Fair so I’m expecting wave 1’s production figures to be there too. Not that long to go:sneaky
So, no sample paints?
New wave 3 is being shown at NY Toy fair today.

Also the new 3.75" figures are shown too. All look awesome!

No. It is clear plans have changed with TMNT arriving a full month earlier.
Surely they aren’t showing them for hide the issues.
Or maybe because all the factories in china are closed down due to the Coronavirus that Nothing was shipped from China to Super7 to show.
You always see the negative in everything. Its already been stated the due to the factories being closed from the Coronavirus everything will be a month or two late until the Factories reopen. That’s why Super7 showed us wave 3 early, They had nothing else to show us because they haven’t received Painted Factory samples yet.
Nope, Brian had them and didn’t show them, they are seen in the background in the wave 2 videos. It has wave 1 TMNT paint samples, logically it also has Thundercats.
In case you have doubts, January 14:
@brianflynn Packaging samples for Thundercats Ultimates! Wave1 under review (complete with unpainted plastic test shots I get to keep!) painted samples are here too!
Once again you’re wrong.
Test Shots and paint samples are for a company to tell the factory what wrong and what needs to be fixed on the Final sample product to be sent to them before the go ahead is given to the factory go into production. Even you should know that. The mere fact wave one wasn’t shown was because Super7 didn’t have the final panted & packaged samples from the factory yet. Brian is not going to show off something in the display case their factory sent them back in January that may look flawed. Just because he mentioned he got painted samples before doesn’t mean they were painted correctly.
Brian Flynn would love to show us what the final product is going to look like at Toy fair. They didn’t because With the factories all being closed from Coronavirus nothing was sent out to Super7 which is why Brian showed off wave 3 Prototypes two months early.
Leaves paranoia.
He said had the TC paint samples there and didn’t show them, it’s the only fact, unlike TMNT.
And If Brian didn’t show them because they had issues, you’re giving me the reason, it was exactly what I said.
Super 7 also had the NJPW figures but were unable to show them because they still needed approval. Ironically they were able to show Andre and the head sculpt still looks pretty much the same.
Super7 Pre-Orders Update
March 2020
Dear Super7 Pre-Order Customers -
Our top priority is always delivering you the best customer service and getting you updates as soon as we have them. We could not be more excited to deliver to you the high quality, fan favorite ULTIMATES and unique, made-to-order releases you’ve ordered. Likely you are aware though of the real impact the coronavirus is having all over the world right now.
Unfortunately, as with every other company in the toy industry, Super7 is also being affected by these events. Global shipping and supply chains have been disrupted due to the virus and this is causing delays in our production and deliveries.
While all of our factories are back up and running, though many at only partial capacity, they have been unable to provide revised ship-dates for many of our pre-orders.
Several of these like Toxic Avenger, Conan the Barbarian, and Ren & Stimpy are paused at 95% complete without a clear end date (yet). Snake Mountain is also nearly complete, but after the Chinese New Year and Coronavirus delays, we are waiting for the final sample to begin production. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Wave 1 is also awaiting final samples, while New Japan Pro Wrestling Wave 1 and Thundercats Wave 1 are still in the sampling process.
In the last few weeks as production has started again in our factories, we expect all of these projects to move to completion fairly quickly, but the exact timing of each factory is still a bit fluid.
We will keep you updated as we receive real answers and timelines for each project as we know them.
Thank you for your patience. You will receive more updates soon with specific details on your order, including sharing the latest and newest pics of your preorder!
If you have any questions, please click on the button below. All questions are logged and will be immediately responded to by our Customer Service team.
Thanks,
The Super7 Team

Figured that was coming. I have something else stuck somewhere between here and indonesia. I’m guessing at a port in a stack of ever growing shipment containers.
no not surprising i’m not clawing at the walls to get these so i’m happy to wait
There is so much cool stuff to collect anymore that I could use a break in product myself, as much as I really want to get on with these after waiting so long.
