You have to expect a little flack when the same people act like broken records... I get insulted all the time in HT threads because I don't agree with what's being said. :huh

If I have ever insulted you over anything other than your reaction to an opinion I expressed about a toy then I apologise. However I'm inclined to agree with what Lar'ja said. You get retaliated against after you insult others first. Thats how I've seen it.

But look heres what I can do for my part:

-I'll stay out of your threads from now on, I won't even look in them.

-I will not talk about NECA in a high-end figure thread. However I made that vow a few months to a year ago and I don't believe I've gone back on it. Earlier in this thread I was trying to discourage it when I saw pics of the NECA P2 appearing. I know that flame wars are inevitable over it, if not with you then someone else.

:lol Dude, you seriously need to lighten up and accept that other people can have an opinion that doesn't have to follow the astroturfing mentality in some threads. 90% of the members on this forum would be considered trolls by the standards you're applying to a few of my posts. :slap I don't even remember posting very much in the DC section. :dunno

You're the one who needs to lighten up here, Butters, as you seem to take it personally, like someone hit your baby, if they should even voice the slightest bit of complaints about Hot Toys. I don't know what you're really trying to accomplish, but it's obvious that you're trying too hard. It's true that there are a lot of trolls on this forum (90% is an exaggeration), but they don't tend to last too long before getting hit with the ban hammer.

At least those broken records play a prettier tune than you do, Butters. They have grounds for what they say, and why shouldn't they? It's their money after all. Countless customers are in agreement that HT is inaccurate (which it is, let's face it), but it's still within the acceptable margins so they'll still buy. That doesn't mean there's anything wrong in hoping for improvement, because either way, we win. On the off chance that these complaints are addressed, you're the one who'll end up with a better figure.
You, on the other hand, troll without provocation. Before you deny it and ask for evidence, think hard about why that other company's thread was temporarily closed down. There's always been a little hate, but it was typically the result of an initial shot across the bow.
This time, that wasn't the case. The conversation was going perfectly well prior to your post and when it was reacted to in a reasonable manner (and kudos to those who replied as such, it must've taken quite a bit of restraint seeing as it wasn't the first time you stirred the pot), you took it even further by insulting everyone. Do forgive their incredulity at your comments. From their point of view, it wasn't right -- and it really wasn't. But hey, you can chalk it up to lens distortion, they probably weren't perceiving things clearly enough.

In reference to the part of your quote that I highlighted in bold, my recent conversation with him is proof enough of that being true.

Perhaps the ignore feature would be the best course of action.
 
Whenever I see a post that makes no sense.. I can't believe it's not Butters.

I don't think many are here just to make statements. If you say something on a forum then it's not unreasonable to expect that someone will respond in a positive or negative way to what you're saying occasionally. That doesn't necessarily mean that you have to respond. The ad nauseum from some gets boring. Why stop posting your thoughts in the threads I created? I don't own them. Don't stop talking about NECA on my account. :dunno

Where on this forum am I against HT making adjustments? Where have I said they can't do anything wrong and that they're made out of gold? Wow... :dunno

I'm sorry. I couldn't hear you over your ego and hubris...

the riddle of butters is solved.

:dunno

FYI, there is an ignore feature folks can use if they don't care to see what certain other members post.

So NOT the point when that member is being purposefully disruptful, OVER AND OVER AGAIN, in a thread that is then locked.

FYI, that's what mods are for.
 
Haha, the unbannable Butters.:slap

Hey now guys. There's two sides to every story. I mean, almost everyone in the Aliens & Robots section is defending him.

Oh wait, those are the people who DON'T want him here. :lol
 
Sent Hot Toys a dozen emails from different accounts about including another set of mandables. Figured it was worth a shot. Ill continue to bug them too. Ive got nothing better to do.
 
So you're saying that's a NECA Falconer, then? I'd say that figure he's sculpting is around 16"-18", so less than half would be around 7" ........ Yep, that's NECA scale. Good call.

:cuckoo:

I meant it's NOT 1/6th. Did you even read my post and the post it was replying to?

:cuckoo:
 
people are still complaining about HT inaccurate Predator sculpts? :rotfl. A ton of ppl will still be buying it.
exactly just deal with it.
No one sayin anything about this ppl - buy what you want if you want :dunno
You only expose yourself as a pile of fools by "complaining about complainers" more and more and more and mooooore...
