SSC QC - A quantitative look

[Lord Aykroyd]

In light of the "Which Company has the Poorest Quality Control" thread -

- I thought it would be nice to get some real numbers to see 'how bad' the QC issue actually is.

In the pole above, a QC issue means damage, paint app problems, missing items, clothing rips, etc.

A QC issue does not mean the final item looks nothing like the prototype (i.e. Faramire or Ani's lips) -- yes these are quality problems, but its more of a 'ssc signed off on letting a crappy third party paint their wonderful collectibles problem as hasn't yet dealt with it - though by hell or high water I sure hope they do'.

To get the approx % of QC issues you've had, just take the # of problems / # of collectibles you've bought from them and X 100.

W00t.

Do you count damage to boxes on 12" figures?

I'd say no on this - or everyone is going to post 65% +

15% or greater.

I don't think you should be allowed to vote in this poll unless you have over 200 SSC items. That's the only way that it would show anything.

I have no idea how many items I have, but I'm sure it's well over 300, and I've had 2 problems. That's .0067%.

Darklord Dave is biasing the empirical objectiveness of this poll.

Whoops, almost forgot to add

I'm saying that the poll has no empirical objectiveness.

Now that IS a biased response.

That leaves me out... I'm only around 15 (and counting )

Obviously you are a loser.

No he's not because his post count isn't over 7000,
