Re: Molecule8 - 1/6th Scale John Lennon

Nice to see an actual product....I am going on the assumption that this is not a render.

It's falls short of the initial sculpt in many ways, but overall for the money you get a lot.

Assuming people who orders actually get this item and it looks as it does in the pictures.

I doubt I would deal with M8 with their current track record and lack of ability to follow a calendar or update in progress. Seems like a shabby enterprise to me. On kin to the way PCS has been operating.

If they do a Wonka I may bite well after in hand pics show up....I am not rewarding this method of business with a pre order....

When someone asks a company for a refund multiple times without being acknowledged and then being forced to go through PP to get it, I would say that makes them nearly crooks. It definitely makes them shady.
 
Re: Molecule8 - 1/6th Scale John Lennon

Damn them for that eh? I mean who do they think they are by hyping their own product right?? Shame on them.

Eamon. Brother.

If you had shown up out of nowhere, claiming to be the single greatest thing to ever happen to illustration and teasing that - next Tuesday! - you were about to unleash a drawing of She-Ra unlike any the world has ever seen only to show us a couple pencilled roughs two months later showcasing a Princess of Power that's perfectly fine but in no discernible way groundbreaking?

I don't think you could blame me for being less inclined to believe a word you said thereafter.

Hyping their own product isn't the damnable offense here. I would think that you, more than most, can appreciate the importance of hitting deadlines and not overselling your ability to produce a final product that meets the prescribed standards.

My point here on this entire thread was that calling them crooks and con artists was not cool.

I'll actually co-sign this. They've mislead vendors, ignored customers and botched communications but, thankfully, there's been no concrete evidence to back up those aspersions. That's a fair point.

But I don't think you can blame me for being less inclined to believe a word they say hereafter.

7 months later and the same crap figure with his hand in his pocket
 
Re: Molecule8 - 1/6th Scale John Lennon

After being MIA for 3+ months on instagram , Kyung Kim is back at promoting the figure

Mole8 is also back at commenting saying they do not have a shipping date, and will get back to customers once they get a shipping time.

How cow!! :D Thats a hell of a personal attack. I don't even know who you are man hiding behind your fake forum name there. Exactly why do you feel that's a reasonable line off attack here bringing my personal Facebook feed into things? did I piss in your cornflakes or out-wit you public before or something? both are highly possible, especially the former.
I generally say that i am both kinda awesome and I kinda suck at art but whatever little picture you want to paint of me here for these guys, rock on with that "brother".
If I get into the specifics of your attack then I will be accused of promoting myself or something so I'm not gonna.
I cannot imagine we are friends on facebook but if we are, kindly remove yourself. If were are not FB friends then I'm glad I am still being bitched about in some circles. :D
 
Re: Molecule8 - 1/6th Scale John Lennon

Mislead sure. Lied no. Lying insinuates that they deliberately tried to deceive. They messed up but they are not evil.

I would hardly say they outright "lied"

Gotta jump in. Love both you guys, but I gotta disagree here. They are still pushing that endoskeleton inside their figure. That has not and will not happen. That is, and will be, a lie.

I'm not sure how many "misunderstandings" you guys are willing to let slide before you call it lying. I'm far less tolerant I suppose. I've seen these guys lying from the start. Stated intentions with no follow thru does not count as "we tried" in my book.

Says the guy constantly attacking people in the thread and banging on and on about how right he is and everyone else is an a-hole? C'mon man, you need to wake up here. We're all entitled to opinions, but what do you expect when you lash out? Chill. Take a walk. Get some fresh air.

M8 really should not have shown off all those BS renders, that simple.

I didn’t read what you said as a personal attack on Eamon. You were simply comparing something comparable in his realm of overpromising and underdelivering. I got it.
 
Re: Molecule8 - 1/6th Scale John Lennon

Question: are the yellow tinted glasses going to be provided as they say, or will it be the lower grade silver ones shown in the picture below?

They're included, they just weren't shown in any closeups like that. You can see them on the blue jacket and green shirt figures here.

Me taking issue with M8 being called crooks and con artists when they clearly are not is not attacking anybody. It defending from attack.

You can't be proven wrong. I get it :lol :lol

M8 took money. M8 ignored concerns. M8 ignored Paypal requests. M8 lied. No, not crooks :cuckoo:

You are not the first to be won over by a charlatan. You won't be the last.
 
Re: Molecule8 - 1/6th Scale John Lennon

Footwear is magnetized to the base? Interesting. I had assumed the metal skeleton would be magnetized to the base.

Anyway, looks better than the last photos from their booth but not as good as the original sculpt. Looking forward to in-hand pics from anyone who still has it on pre-order.

Cool, so I can go onto his or even your personal Facebook page and site some example from that might prove your point? Oh wait I cannot because I don't know who you are either as its' a fake name.
Lets me explain what this is some weak BS, not that I really want to.
The Booty is referring to just random She-Ra art I do for myself for fun. I start a sketch, tell folks I hope to get this one finished. It's Not professional paid work. I don't draw for The Boot, funnily enough. More often than I like, I drop the odd personal private piece in favour of paid commission work. Isn't that just scandalous?? I do not think I am awesome at all. Quite the opposite.

I'm here on the rollercoaster every day. I'm just not saying much.


What's super hysterical is that I was contacted on Facebook to actually come here and specifically give my thoughts. I don't think I was even subscribed to this thread until I was asked to give my thoughts on the M8 situation. You tell folks who asked you what you think and you get roasted. Go figure!
 
Re: Molecule8 - 1/6th Scale John Lennon

I always thought something would come from them. Its not a one man band thief its a established company. All be it in a difference realm but a established company non the less, they just didn't fully understand what they were getting into.

I have no dog in this fight either way, just piped up as you asked for girls.

Yeah...that was weird...maybe he thinks that you are trying to prove him wrong by having been born a woman...weird...

Eamon, you do good art for sure. I've seen some of your stuff.
