Of course, those are just indirect ways, it's like implying that being in any forum, board or Facebook groups actually supports a company. People are not in here for the companies, they're in here for the hobby. Being here "supports" Sideshow as much it supports other companies.

Learning you are... Seedling is still young but fruit will follow yes?

Not really, this is a SS centric forum. Between their statues and Hot Toys they distribute that is probably 80-90% of the traffic on here. I would go to another forum if I did not collect mostly SS.

I think if you click on the ads at the top that link you to SS page they get something but otherwise I believe you are correct.

Was confirming what this guy said.

And... What's your problem? :pfft:

Help sell the items...

That is hardly what I consider "supporting", honestly.
Actually, in this very thread we're discussing CoolProps, which is NOT Sideshow. Ironic

SS must agree it is supporting, else why would they give the site a cut?
Coolprops is getting discussed more due to SS is losing customers to poor quality pieces, now we start to look elsewhere and spread the word here. No reason SS could not have done as good or better than CP, but seems they don't want to anymore.

I love SS, when they get it right. Fact is I only have two pieces on my radar now 1:4 Chronicle T-800 & CoolProps 1:1 P2 Bust.

The Q.C lottery has made me reconsider every SS release.

Gawd I hope there's no QC issues when their stuff ships... What will folks do?
