There was a small kerfuffle final week when Gaming Heads, who create varied forms of videogame associated collectibles, introduced that Sony had immediately pulled their license and had instructed Gaming Heads to destroy all the prevailing PlayStation licensed inventory. However the greatest situation was that Gaming Heads was directing prospects who had already paid to Sony for refunds, and even included contact particulars for a Sony worker.
Individuals had been understandably pissed by Gaming Head’s plan to shirk their authorized obligations and the corporate’s Fb web page was instantly flooded by indignant prospects.
Now, the corporate has lastly finished the correct factor. In a brand new assertion that pops up as quickly as you go to their website, Gaming Heads states that, “we’ll do all we are able to for you and the remainder of the Group (together with processing your refunds).”
The assertion go into some additional particulars as nicely, a few of which make an already complicated state of affairs much more baffling. In line with Gaming Heads they’ve managed to buy-back a few of their gadgets from their wholesale and distribution companions that means they’ll now full group orders for his or her Jak 3, The Final of Us 2 Ellie, Kratos (Norse) and Kratos on a Throne statues.
Nonetheless, this appears to contradict their prior assertion which mentioned Sony had instructed all of them current inventory should be destroyed and no current orders might be fulfilled.
Gaming Heads additionally say they’re ready to listen to from Sony concerning royalty funds for gadgets prospects had already ordered however Sony had cancelled. Once more, this appears considerably at odds with their phrases about shopping for again statues and finishing orders.
Briefly, the state of affairs continues to a complicated mess and it’s no clearer why Sony determined to terminate the decade-long relationship with Gaming Heads. No matter precisely what occurred behind the scenes, although, Gaming Head’s dealing with of it did nothing however damage their repute. Hopefully they’ll be taught from this entire debacle.
In the meantime, I’ve reached out to Sony for remark and can replace this put up in the event that they choose to say something.
