Molecule8 - 1/6 Scale Willy Wonka

[Sweet Rabbit]

No just a lot of insinuation that Molecule8 haven’t been paying the people that helped produce Lennon which suggests Wonka is less likely.

If it’s true, the whole company is less likely

So I hope everyone that’s paid towards this has put in a claim for their money back...

You get nothing!!!

Should we just go ahead and update the thread title to "Wonka SCAM" preemptively?

Maybe it will still release? Lol

A figure may come - just nobody that worked on it will get paid. There is no way they can recover from this mess.

Nah, look for M8 to disappear and change the name at some point

I have been thinking that... the inevitable new toy company that will suddenly pop up selling figures with these stolen heads.

Definitely, once their site went down for "maintenance" the writing was on the wall. Vijay was like "peace!"

Just waiting for Mike Hill to chime in with his Molecule 8 horror story....

So no Willy Wonka?

So no Willy Wonka?

Nope because of a willy wanker.

They need to rename the domain to Molest8 for everyone they really put the screws to. Amirite?

Man this went from zero to dumpster fire fast. Will miss that Wonka opportunity, hope there is some recourse for the artists and people involved somehow but not holding much hope of it.

I wish Hot Toys would make Willy Wonka

I wish Hot Toys would make Willy Wonka

That would certainly be a homerun for them!

 

[Godfather1408]

This is hilarious! Via facebook message

"Dear I understand the team is working very hard on Willy Wonka and will update you as soon as news is available."

At this point the damage is done so why are they still bothering?

Willy Wonka Iron Man?

 

[jal76]

I would actually say that that is the only thing probably even less likely than Molecule8 ever making a Willy Wonka...
