Thank you for quoting half of my post to validate your argument. Like I said in the part you cut off, I found the third-person grandstanding papadoom mentioned and professed omniscient market speculation on every high profile statue hilarious at first. I have no problem with trolling if it brings a certain flavor and fun to discussions. CBG at least motivates humorous responses from others, even if one doesn't find his own posts amusing (I often do, but YMMV.)

forps is unique in that the presentation of his opinions as objective and deeming statues as failures and the people who buy them as suckers, consistently motivates justifiably angered reactions for pages at a time, so his posts are visible when quoted even when I tried to do the mature thing by simply putting him on my ignore list. If the mods can remove and ban people just for derailing threads--regardless of how popular or fringe whatever opinion he's espousing is--he's guilty of provoking that to the point of, like dafadcariad said, discouraging participation until he's finished with his tirades.

Poor guy (Divinesorrow), why ? Let them call me names. I dont care. I do not want other members to "protect" me from these fanboys of 1 (or rather 2) companies. The fact that ALL the hype from certain companies is long gone, has made them FURIOUS. Let it be. I will let you trolling me or mocking me or calling me names. I dont care. You can simply put me on your ignore list. Why bother ? I am not going to call names or to say other things. There are many guys here and in facebook or social media who know exactly what is going on and why.

Vader,

this is MY opinion and by my track record, i rarely make a false estimation. If some guys cant see what i am saying (that the total black "hides" the details of the sculpt and makes it rather bland vs the original), its not my fault. MOVE ON...

The original is MILES, i repeat, MILES better than this variant, no matter how CHEAP this variant is. Its like saying that Deathstroke PFF would miraculously become a MASTERPIECE, if Sideshow decided to give a -50% discount. NOPE. NEVER.

I don't understand why someone who doesn't own the first one and doesn't like the second one spends more than 2 seconds in this thread.

I did that because that's the part I wanted to reply to, my "Argument" had nothing that needed validation. I feel that overall I see him being attacked directly and called out and made fun of for his posts. There are many people who say things that shouldn't be said in these forums and should keep discussions on topic. Everyone is giving an opinion on every single post written in these forums, is "Train your eyes" really the tipping point on calling for bans and directly calling the guy names thread after thread?

We're not worthy, we're not worthy

Back to the topic though, I love how this statue looks and like It better than the original colors. Would have loved to have the original add on instead of the new colored batterang and the krytogun.

I don't own anything from iron studios - How are their statues considered quality wise?

I love the black one. Just wish the base didn't have the graffiti.

PO'd, cant wait on P1 SDCC reveals. With an unk ES and a more applicable price tag with missed opportunities on the OG, had to snag.

Thanks and likewise. Resistance is futile! I literally said to myself, "self, who are you kidding?".

Yeah I almost pulled the trigger on the OG just recently, glad I didn't. Yeah I wouldn't be surprised if we see early shipping.
