Planet X Updates with First Looks at Full Color Image of Genesis - Hommage to Omega Supreme

[BaCon]

Thanks to the official Planet X page, we have an update on the Genesis project, a third party production that pays homage to the War on Cyberbtron Omega Supreme character in an ultimate way! From the page: "Hello, It's a long time since we last update of Project Genesis Progress. Here is the newest coloured Prototype. Feel free to comment on it! Planet X" Yup, they have posted our first looks at the Genesis action figure in full colors. Yes, indeed this guy is looking pretty sweet, check out the image below for more details.

Yeah actually a let down color wise, still not going to bother with it mainly out of protest that Planet X is price fixing. Plus it looks like Omega's arms would break either easily, and it is still over priced for a 3rd party product

From there Facebook page

 

Recently we have received comments on controlling the price of Genesis in the market. We would like to explain our marketing Strategy.

 

The main reason for Planet X to maintain a smiliar retail price per each country is to prevent price war and make sure all retailers have fair amount of profit by retailing it. Price war is undesireble to all retailers and especially manufacturer/designer, and no one want to see its retail price drops before it release. Also, our "genesis" size & weight is still unprecedentedly huge and may have unforeseeable sudden increase on shipping expenses, we need to make sure all retailers still have room for profit if its final size & weight increase their shipping expenses. Hope all retailers & customers can understand.

 

Planet X simply hope to maintain an acceptable profit for all retailers who appreciate and help to spread our products and spirit, so we can keep on a continous relationship and develop more products in the future. Indeed, many 3rd parties also keep the retail price similar all over the world, in order to maintain a healthy environment.

 

At this moment, all our members are working very hard on the progress of Genesis. The colored prototype photos should be updated within a week!

This effectively gives Robot Kingdom the advantage by $20 if you buy him from them, and have it shipped to the states, so screw these guys and their unknown QC

Oh and that is actual BS about other 3rd party companies, they do not price fix, they MSRP so it is up to the store to decide the price, where Planet X wants to control the price
