Here is just a sample of what people are saying about us....

"Just got my sharks (Killer and Ultimate Bruce) and they are just stunning!!! Great craftsmanship and airbrushing that I've ever seen. Thanks for the awesome work and skills that made these sharks great. Best of wishes and God bless." -- Rob N., WA

"The mini Bruce made it safe and sound and is proudly displayed.... I do a lot of this type of collecting I wish all the companies I deal  with could be like SCO.  I look forward to what y'all have coming down the Gulf no pun intended, well maybe a little. 
Be well, God Bless" -- Marlin B., TX

"You have one very satisfied customer here. Mike was right; it was well worth the wait. I'm so looking forward to hanging Bruce on my wall. Hope your family had a wonderful Thanksgiving." -- Mark S., Ontario Canada

"Good day - I want to thank you and your family for the great work on the 18" Bruce. I'll cherish it for a lifetime." -- Jaws Fan James V., MA
                                                                                          
"Unbelievable! I know you all received a deluge of orders when you reduced those prices, so I wasn’t worried about the wait. 
It really is an unreal product, I almost want to buy another for my office. 
I almost bought the Sideshow maquette a few years back and so glad I didn’t/stumbled on your site. 
I’m beyond pleased, and now just mulling over getting a bigger shark." -- Jeff G., SC

"My friend received the bust and it is PERFECT!! He adores it - thank you very much!!  Thanks again for your great work and terrific customer service.  You all have been a pleasure to work with." -- Christine P., VA

"Hi there, the killer shark arrived today and is incredible! Thank you so much!  I look forward to buying more shark products from you in the near future.  Kind regs-" -- Damian S., United Kingdom

"Hi Cathy and family, Just thought I'd let you know that I picked up my Bruce bust at the weekend and that I am very pleased. I'm so impressed with the quality and accuracy of the replica, and so pleased that I took the risk and invested in such a special piece. Thanks so much for you excellent service and great replica. Thanks," -- Richard Y, United Kingdom

"Killer Shark safely arrived in the bay area!!!  And he's GORGEOUS!  And he's also HUGE!!!  I had no idea he was going to be that big.  Once again, Mike and The Schultz Family have done an amazing job!!!  My 8-year old told me this morning that he was "really proud" to have the shark.  Thank you for EVERYTHING!!!" -- Steven C., CA

"Dear Mike, Cathy and family, I'm relieved to say that my "Ultimate Bruce" arrived safely here in Japan!  It really is exceptional, Mike.  It looks just like the dry-docked shark in Edith Blake's photos." -- Richard B., Japan

"Hello Schultz Family, My incredible killer shark has arrived in perfect condition. I am trully amazed at your work.
This is better looking than I ever imagined. It really is an honor to own your work.  Thank you soooo much.
I can't wait to see what you will create next. I will send pictures after my Ultimate Bruce arrives." -- Dan C., CA


"Dear Schultz Family, Just a note to say my Ultimate Bruce arrived in perfect order today and I am ABSOLUTELY pleased! What a spot-on sculpt and paint! I love it! "Jaws" has been my favorite movie since 1975 and I have been a minor collector of the movies' paraphernalia for years. This is far and away the best Bruce out there!  Keep up the exceptional work. I will be back again for future purchases." -- William N., MI

"I just wanted to let you know that I received my OSS – Open Sided Shark and it exceeded all my expectations. (And my expectations were unreasonably high!) First of all, the packaging was incredible; it was in perfect condition. Words cannot possibly express my joy when I opened the package up. (My children were overjoyed, too, and they don't even know who Bruce is!) This was not just a shark; this was BRUCE. He was flawless. This was the shark that I spent too many years of my life obsessing about. And suddenly, thanks to Mike, the shark was mine. The detailing! The expression! The teeth! All beyond incredible. I can't stop looking at it. This shark was worth every penny that I spent on it and it is one of my most cherished possessions. Thanks to Mike for signing the base; that ensures that everyone knows I have the real deal. And a big thanks to Cathy for the ultra professional e-mail correspondence! ... Thank you for everything! I am definitely a happy customer. Beyond happy."  -- Steven C., CA

"I can't tell you how excited I am about this shark. I've been waiting for this model since I was 9 years old. Mike is a BRILLIANT artist and I can't wait to get it! ... I'm going to place the shark in a pretty prominent spot here in San Francisco so that everyone will be able to see how cool it is! And I'll make sure to tell them where I got it! ... Thank you for EVERYTHING! You guys are AWESOME! ... It looks like you guys are WELL on your way to being really HUGE in the industry! I'm a Graphic Designer here in San Francisco and I know great art when I see it!
As far as the signing (Mike's signature on display base) goes I'll leave that to the artist! Top or bottom is fine. (I'd probably prefer the top but my concern is that there won't be enough room.   I'll let him use his best judgment.) I just want to make sure it's known that I have the REAL Schultz family open-sided shark.  No cheap copies from that creepy 'Fred' guy."

-- Steven C., CA

"Hello Schultz Family!
I just wanted to let you know my OSS arrived and I am blown away. What an unbelievably accurate display, and so insanely cool! However, it is bittersweet. My best friend and dive buddy David bought this for me back in March for my birthday, and as you know, he passed away. He was the biggest JAWS fan, and he loved his NTT so much. I still have his emails and pictures of him with it raving about how awesome it is. He would have loved the OSS as well... Thank you again for such an amazing shark. I can't wait to find a suitable place to display it. And I know I'm early, but Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year!!!"
 

-- Joel S.,  CA 

"Bruce arrived, and he's even better than I expected!!  A true work of art!  Thanks for the opportunity to own this fantastic piece!"  -- Nicholas V., NJ

"Mike, the new NTG ROCKS!!!!  Well done man!!!" -- Paul McPhee, Marine Life Artist/Sculptor, CA

"I wanted to say how much I love the BRUCE.  Mike did a great job, and it is proudly displayed in my office!!!!  Saw Spielberg over the weekend at the DIRECTORS GUILD AWARDS and told him about it!"
--
Greg Nicotero, KNB EFX Group, CA

"I bought your most realistic great white head from you and I must say everyone loves it. They think it is real! It is hanging proudly in my living room right in the middle of a 4 foot fiberglass bullshark and a 4 foot hammerhead it looks awesome! You should be working for Spielberg! Take care and God bless!" -- Michael S., PA

"OMG!! What INCREDIBLE TALENT.  You are AMAZING..I AM PROUD TO OWN YOUR WORK..THANX" -- Mike D., Canada

I cannot tell you how thrilled I am to be able to own one of these masterpieces. I can only imagine how awesome it will be when it is in front of me.... It is so cool to be able to customize my very own Bruce!"

"...Congratulations on your work! You’re making fans all over the world proud again to be a Jaws fan. And at the same time you make dreams come true… because THIS is the shark we all love (to own). -- Luke S., Netherlands

"I'm happy to report that the NTT has been delivered and it's in perfect condition! I've quickly set it up for a goood look. I have to say, none of the pics that has been posted do this piece justice. My NTT came out absolutely amazing and is exactly what I've requested if not more so. Thank you and Mike for making this happen. Soon, lots of folks out there will be seeing tons of pics of my NTT ... God Bless and thanks again." -- John C., CA

"First and foremost I am so happy with my purchase! The word amazing does not do NTT Bruce #7 justice, really! A huge thank you out to all and especially Mike . Everything arrived safely and the detail is both perfect and incredible!
Thank you again all and I look forward tomore of your products! Sincerely, a proud NTT owner,"
-- John M., CT

"
Just to let you know that my "Bruceday" present is absolutely fantastic and brilliant! Thank you for this piece of art. Each time I look at it (about 25 times/hour!) it's like watching at the real Bruce model from the movie. I am so happy to own this collector.
Thank you so much."
-- Fred C., France

"Bruce was in PERFECT shape when I unwrapped him last night. Not the slightest bit of damage from shipping. Took it out of the box, unwrapped it and was floored by the magnificence of a real, live NTT in my house. It's so incredible when you actually see the NTT face to face. And it's perfectly perfect. It's lightweight yet almost indestructible and the size is just right. If anyone's on the fence about one of these, jump on board before it's too late... hyperbole is justified with the NTT, because it's just that GREAT. Still can't believe I actually have one. Stared at it for hours last night....I'm eagerly awaiting the next fine release from Shark City Ozark. You can count on my support!
Thanks again!" --
Clark Y., OR
"Thank you for making the ordering process such fun and the ability to customize each NTT. Its been truly a remarkable experience thus far and I  cannot wait to see mine done up. NTTs are truly works of art. Regards," -- Tim N., Singapore

"THANK YOU SO SO MUCH, U GUYS ARE THE GREATEST EVER!!!  I have thousands of dollars of high end horror collectibles - no one in the industry is nicer." -- Mike S., NY

"My NTT showed up yesterday and I just got to open it today. WOW...this thing is especially Awesome! The detail is insane...very happy with mine. It arrived in once piece and great condition. Hats off to Mike for creating such a fantastic piece! And thank you for your patience and time for making this happen. Hope to acquire any future pieces Mike decides to add to the collection. Have a happy holiday! " --   Chris R.,  Canada

"I had a great talk with the editor/owner of AFI the other night (we've been friends over 12 years), and he was blown away by the pics he saw of NTT."  -- Steve / Action Figure Insider

"I am very happy and giddy to own one of these.  And I am truly amazed at the talent and commitment that Mike has displayed.  Thanks for all the hard work, attention to details and spirit that has gone into this.  Bruce-NTT is a real masterpiece!"  -- Richard M.  (aka Buzzybean)


"I received my Bruce NTT today and just wanted to say thank you and to let you know that I am very happy and impressed with him.  I also really enjoyed getting the notes of exactly what Mike did in his creative process with the Bruce that he created for me.  It is really something special to own.  I loved the little addition on the Famous Monsters of Film land magazine "JAWS vs APE".  I had that issue when I was young when it first came out.  I can still remember the store I got it at and where I was when i looked through the magazine.  So it was just one more thing that made this NTT that much more special to me. Just wanted to let you know that I noticed it and though I am sure that you had no idea that it would have a sentimental value to me, it did.  It was also nice to see how carefully you packaged the item.  It was easy to see that a lot of thought and care went into that also.  He arrived safe and sound. Again I say thanks and I look forward to seeing your other projects down the road." 

-- Eric L., NY

"Bruce arrived today in excellent condition.  This thing is Awesome!  A real Masterpiece that has all of the stand out characteristics of Bruce!  Not to mention he just looks really cool at any angle you may want to view it.  Even the main base with its tiniest of details catch your eye.  Mike really nailed it.  A dead-on replica of the most famous JAWS shark from the trademark jowls to the distinctive dorsal fin  which many modelers always seem to get wrong.  I feel very privileged to own one and  will treasure it for many years.  Mike is a man of immense talent and one hell of a sculptor.  In the immortal words of Richard Dreyfuss, 'He did it!  He did it! He did it!...'" -- Chet G., NJ

"I'd just like to let you know I have just received my NTT Bruce and he survived the journey to the UK just fine. He is an amazing piece, even better in person and I'm over the moon with him!
I cant remember being that excited and nervous unwrapping the packaging since being about 5 yrs old on xmas day, it had that kind of magic to it.
I'd just like to thank you all and everyone involved in helping create what is the stand out piece in my collection.
I will post pics up on operation orca when I get the chance and I look forward to seeing future projects.
 Best regards to you all!" --
  Dave W., UK

"Many thanks for getting me the amazing, huge, great, genius BRUCE NTT!!!!  I received it safe and I'm glad I got in on the run!!  Many thanks" -- Dirk M., Germany

"...the NTT arrived safe & sound!  Simply amazing and beyond all expectations. 
I greatly appreciate all the time and effort you've put into the NTT and the new products. 
NTT is definitely just the beginning for me."
-- Scott P., Canada

"Just had to get this piece ... It needed representation in Oz.  After I unpacked it, I showed my wife and she said "It's a shark"... To which I replied ... "No honey, it's THE SHARK".  -- Nick S., Australia


"... my NTT came today.  I am really delighted with it, it's amazing in every way!!!!" -- Gavin B, UK
