Re: Jazz Inc, shows a familiar bust!
Can anyone provide a link to the video that this is pulled from? Without any additional context, this entire topic seems to be masked in a Londinium Ffogg.

Good to see it in context.
Still, not disclosing an NDA during negotations is Business 101.
I think sometimes when you're a creative person there is a misconception that you'll work with anyone, or that you should be honored someone is a fan of your work. Business is business. I had a situation many years ago that some folks pointed a company to my work and they were "anxious" to work with me-- during the negotiating stages I didn't feel like we were connecting so I passed.
I'd love it if this company made figures using Chuck's work-- I'd toss my Hot Toys in a bin for my future grand kids-- but that's between the honorable Mr Williams and this guy to work out, and hopefully his inability to respect the NDA is not indicative of how he conducts business.

Andy, Joost is the only company who personally answers fans questions promptly. Hot Toys certainly does not answer questions. And if enough fans write he will make changes to improve the car. I helped contribute to the accuracy of the 1966 Batmobile. If someone has a quality issue he works to resolve it to their satisfaction.
So yeah I would say Joost is very honorable.
Joost asked me a while ago who I would recommend to sculpt 1966 Batman and I said "Chuck Williams."
