XM Studios Iron Man 3 Statue

[Y4NK33 PL4N3T]

Save the stupid emoticon, that wasn't funny. First, I haven't changed my stance. Second, I think XM makes some nice pieces so I have nothing against the company at all. It's become common here to trash SS at every turn so I wanted to see the competition and what all the fuss is about. After seeing this particular statue I don't get it. It looks nothing like RDJ. That's not trolling. It's an opinion on this stature. I don't like their Hulk either. I think their Cap looks really nice.

Disagree, it was funny. Also, it's common to trash SS at every turn lately in Iron Man product threads specifically because literally every single IM product they've released has been a QC ridden disaster for about 5 years now with no signs of slowing down. If you want to read people gloating over SS, go to the Court of the Dead and DC forums where their shipped products are still top notch. If you're set on reading SS Marvel threads, get used to the bashing until they ship something that isn't a mess. You stated your opinion, no problem with that, but having no interest in this piece you're hanging around just to fan flames and do exactly what you railed against in the other thread. Congrats.

Dave has said that constructive criticism is fine. Saying things like "their product is crap" isn't.

You can get your point across without resorting to simpleminded comments. It's all about showing respect.

IMO saying those types of comments, like the example I just made, says more about you than it does about the company or product your saying it about.

not sure who your defending, if it's Kit then read his first post, he comes in "" playing dumb "" so he can trash the statue without technically trolling (that's the way it seemed anyways), but given this statue has been previewed for several months now on this forum I somehow doubt he didn't know that was RDJ, plus he kept asking the question over and over again... Anyways I wouldn't of said anything except he was preaching a different message in another thread.... so he sounded a bit hypocritical..... no biggy....

I'm all for constructive criticism, but come to think of it weren't you the one who came in and edited my post to say this looks like 'Uncle Mario'? That isn't constructive at all. Granted, I don't mind sarcasm because I have a sense of humor and do think it's funny but still, you can't have it both ways.

What you call 'simpleminded comments' others may call 'the truth'. I agree you should respect other forum members opinions here, no problem with that.

I'm not defending anyone. Simply pointing out what Dave has stated for his site.

I didn't edit your original post, I merely poked fun at your comment within my post where I quoted you. We see that happen all the time. It was in jest.

I still think that both the XM & SS IM portraits look off.

Saying something is "trash" is simple minded.

I know what/how you did it and that it was in jest. But original post or not, you offered nothing constructive and that was my point. When that occurs in SS threads those posts get deleted almost immediately, just sayin'.

Saying something is "trash" is simple minded.

It can be, but sometimes saying something is "trash" is just a simple, more economic way of stating dissatisfaction with a piece without needing to write a long winded essay about everything that someone may find wrong with it. Short and sweet if you will.

Duly noted.

It may be a speedier way of saying it but Dave doesn't like it and it's his site. What he says goes.
