KS Update #41 - Digital Upgrade & Character Bust

[Yokosuka]

I hope the busts are got by true fans rather opportunists.

[Axm]

Oh god. Any other year but this year and I would have snatched up one of those. Amazing collectors item.

[sand4fish]

Doesn't he need those to make the game?

Nah... He got 3D scans of those busts. Besides even if Yu needed the busts, he would update them (make new ones) for Shenmue 3 as Soneshee said.

It was painful for my wallet, but I couldn't resist. Hope I'm considered a true fan.

[manuel tripero]

Those busts are gone.

[Ryo Fhan]

Those busts should have been at least 5000? 8,000?

I mean, just the damn watch was 5000 (don't mean to say damn watch, but it's obviously way cheaper to make)

[Peter]

There was definitely a mismatch in pricing there. The watch went for $1200 and $800 on ebay within the past year alone.

[johnvivant]

those busts should have been $3000-4000 minimum. they are very famous Shenmue artifacts.

Who is in charge of pricing these reward tiers? Those busts should have been three times as much. There are people paying twice as much for a bag of knickknacks. The difference in that kind of money is somebody's salary on the development team.

I'm giving up on the rewards of my other 185$ account for this.

It also caused a few backers to move away from the jacket and crystal memories reward. Such a dumb move! They should have given the name a vendor a big discount instead and moved the busts up to $4,500.

Obviously, our boys over at AJ are throwing in a few curveballs to keep the excitement going... right?
....f*ck.

[Rakim]

Yep... Those same ones in the video, but now with mold, discoloration and everything.

[Supa]

I'm sure there are some left, and maybe they can sell a few replicas if they have PayPal.
