  1. Yes, so honest question, what was wrong with the way i voiced my opinion, was it the F word?( i've seen the same or worse on here many times) looking at my original post i stated that I felt this was a F U to long time collectors, nothing more.
  2. I never said and don't think the set was designed to exclude anyone,that would be stupid for any company to do, and don't put words in my mouth, i never said or implied anything like that. However being this is a SDCC exclusive, at a higher price point, and sold exclusively online it is more targeted to adult collectors rather than children or casual buyers, unlike rehashes sold at walgreens at $8, and to not in some way make this appeal to them is a mistake, that's the difference, and why i still think it is a "fuck you" to long time collectors. i call 'em as i see 'em and that's the way i see it on this. As for you taking issue with it again i never said Zach fucked up or what ever, so thats on you. dont take things so personally. its funny how people always say(and im not singling you, Zach, out on this) everyone's entitled to their opinion, yet i've received alot of crap for voicing mine.
  3. be careful you risk the scorn of the internet with your words of dissatisfaction.
  4. All i ever said was I didn't like the set, not that others couldn't or shouldn't. it was others that made/are still making it personal.
  5. "You've gotten really heated at almost anything these days" i commented on one thing, then people want to call me out for my opinion, thats on them. Zach obviously was butt hurt that i didnt care for the new set and used "fuck you" many times in his post as a way to single me out ( i said it once), maybe we should be concerned for him I appreciate your concern, but im good
  6. Scalpers? those who are late to Minimates? cardboard collectors?
  7. the set does nothing for those of us who have supported this line for years thats a FUCK YOU, but more importantly is YOUR comment that makes it that much more obvious that DST doesnt give a FUCK about long time fans, and for you to make such a statement on a site like this that is primarily inhabited by long time fans and then to be surprised by the reaction is just sad. it seems like you have a grasp of alot of scenarios, that would be met with dissatisfaction from "fans" why not try doing something different then? -Some people
  8. So @$50 gets you 6 rehashed mates and some fancy cardboard? Wow!
  9. Another big Fuck you from DST to those of us who aren't late to Minimates.
  10. Am i not reading this right? isnt that 3 days?
  11. right. like we would ever get any kind of news story or pre notice of the line ending, someday the line will end and we probably wont even realize it for awhile.
  12. lately ive been looking at reloading all my old custom pics, but i noted some old customs that have been hanging out on my work table that i never even took pics of, so i dusted them off and snapped this quick one. despite asking several people back in the day, i never got a glimpse of DSTs original concept TMNTs with the sculpted heads, so i made my own.
  13. glad you like, i made her way back in 2007 (damn im old)
  14. we need a rapidfire or other MOTORCYCLE(ghost rider) in this line asap and maybe some kind of tiger surely one of them Cobras or dreadnoks had a tiger, i know they had MOTORCYCLES motorcycle
  15. had to read this twice as the first time i got a very strange take on it Lol maybe its just that bastardized english them Brits use sounding odd to the American ear
  16. i'm with you on this as well, i've " never got" the fact that many/some/all of the Transformers could or did change size, the oddest being gen 1 Megatron going from one of the largest (at the time) robots transforming to a hand gun that could be wielded by another bot of roughly the same size that Megs just was!? again this goes back to the original designs as Toys first then cartoon and comics. conversely however from a minimate stand point the fact that all of them regardless of size in other media will be roughly 2" is just a fact of the line.
  17. Wow, im generally amazed that many here are so concerned by my opinion of non-transforming Transformers, ive been mocked, and lectured to that they are a legitimate or accepted form of collectible by the transformer community, that they have appeared before etc. not that i EVER said that they weren't or that i was unaware of previous incarnations along the same line, this is just my opinion of the concept folks its not like i said that DST couldn't/shouldn't make them or that you or anyone else couldn't/shouldn't like them. (oh if i had that power, you would all be in trouble, but i digress) i don't collect many funkos and definitely never found the need for a non-transforming Transformer Pop so i can't speak to why they have never come under the same scrutiny or their pros and cons in general. An interesting point id make is that the Original "Transformers" were designed as transforming Toys FIRST then adapted to cartoons, comics etc after so the TRUE look of them WOULD be the way they looked as Vehicle and/or robot however "Janky" and "Kibbled" that may be. anyway as stated this is just my opinion( we are ALL allowed to have one, and if more people would just remember that instead of the knee jerk reaction that seems more and more prevalent in our world today, i think we would all be better off) if you are happy with these new additions to Minimates then i am happy for you, hell, i never even said i wouldn't buy these either just that the concept i always found odd. what might turn me off most is that these look to be about $30 for a 4 pack is that right?!
  18. its not the same at all, its spider-man you get what its billed as, it would be more like getting a MM called Transformable spider-man that doesnt come with removable mask/suit to change to peter parker. these are literally called Transformers and they dont transform its like buying a pack of batteries that is empty and having that asterisk with the note Batteries not included. on it
  19. As usual i find myself quoting BHM, as he shares my sentiments before i do. Transformers that dont... Transform has never been a concept that i get. Bring on the JOES! oh and a Vamp and H.I.S.S. too, maybe even a Rapidfire MOTORCYCLE!!!!!!!!
