Yeah bad post, flame me. Because this is a board for sofubi good or bad everyone is entitled to an opinion and because I like this toy I get flamed. /rant. I'll continue lurking and keep my posts to a minimum so I don't get flamed by the elitists
I still admit as being a n00b here but...damn, this kid Is ballsy... Lurk all u want, good luck bro...
I'm still trying to figure out the Facebook jargon comment. Maybe I'm just dense but what does that refer to? I'm not sure why anyone would be bashing Scott because another artist unaffiliated with him bought Baby Deadbeets and made a run of custom figures. That happens all the time with sofubi that none of us would consider a true platform toy, and more often than not those releases are not "sanctioned" by the creator of the figure. How can you criticise someone for having their figure customized by someone else? Now it just feels like people are bashing the figure because its popular with noobs and non-SBers.
I understand it has the platform toy feel, but oh well they are Deadbeets. Most of the boardies that don't like them, don't like the beets anyways. Some of the reasons are legit, some are opinion, and some are just crap. Its understandable, its a discussion board. But the beets aren't usually discussed, just shit on.
To an extent the toy kinda gets a pass . . . It's more the Kozik school of sales and marketing technique and the fuckwits that the toy seems to appeal to being drawn over to Skullbrain. Complain and bash?
"To an extent the toy kinda gets a pass . . . It's more the Kozik school of sales and marketing technique and the fuckwits that the toy seems to appeal to being drawn over to Skullbrain." Yeah ill give you that, Tolleson basically came on these boards just to sell and thats all he really seems to do on here. And im not siding with the veterans or newcomers, but new vinyl and kaiju has to be made eventually. But im thinking more of Guumon's Daigomi and MVH's pieces. Deadbeet is way different from other vinyl. Some of the established artists/companies maybe putting out pieces closer to kaiju, but damn some of them really are shit. I'd rather stare at a Deadbeet than at some of those.
I have no desire to discuss the merits of the toy, my opinion of it has nothing to do with my opinion of the thread or of stolleboy. My opinion is he (and his cronies that only hype in this thread) is a parasite. He showed up to hype and sell. Its indicative of the epidemic that runs through the toy scene in general. In the past this would've been frowned upon here, but now its welcomed by the "noobs" and the "old guard" are apathetic. At least he could be up front about it and admit he's here for the cash like some others have. His responses to me show that he really is a "boy," as he won't man up and just say, yes I'm here to sell stuff and have never even posted outside of the American Idols forum. That I'd at least respect. RFSO. Or insert whatever other trendy little line people like to use around this forum that doesn't really mean anything because there really hardly is a "community" any longer.
my name has nothing to do with BBs btw, it was just a coincidence when i got into toy collecting. dont know how many times im going to have to say that.. but not like you guys care anyways, right? and my brower says 'http://www.skullbrain.org'.. pretty sure im on the right site
id much rather collect [expletive deleted] than all the crap i see on SB. for all you kaiju-only collectors, get off your high horse. its a toy. that is all. Isn't this you as well? I think somebody posted it in another thread.
Can we just stay on topic of this thread. The translucent yellow is nice I want to see some more solid colors though
