    I'm not gonna defend Ben I think is a terrible reviewer for wanting free stuff but emgo and Bobby skull-face are pretty good guys because they give their honest opinion especially skull-face even if the company pays for a review

    Yeah those guys would accept free stuff, but at the same time they don't mind paying their own way if necessary.

    Lol, I do, yes. Not sure why, but I think I just see it and it's usually somewhere I can't really see in any mode so I just leave it there?

    I'm a big fan of Paik. Gives you the full facts and full transformations. Despite his ham hands and sausage fingers I do like BSF's discussion points, especially when he's talking about the state of collecting. Emgo's humor is hit or miss for me.

    Ended up cancelling my order with BBTS and going with someone else. They said they had no idea when they would get their stock.
    Anyone know why some N American retailers aren’t getting the product?

    I think because BBTS is bigger the employee's don't know when it comes in till it's checked in at the warehouse.

    Very reason I went to TCP. Always had good luck with them. I used to use BBTS, but they always seem to be on the tail end of receiving shipments. Never had problems with them, they just dont seem to get stock in when others do, and I hate waiting.

    I like Bobby Skullface. Solid reviews, and he comes at it from an honest standpoint. He does favor the Fans Toys aesthetic like me, but if he doesnt like a figure he doesnt hold back, FT or not. That's how it should be.

    I do get the feeling they are MUCH bigger. But I still wonder why, TF source and ToynDojo both have their instock and BBTS couldn’t tell me if they were arriving soon. I’m sure they receive shipment tracking from the distributors.

    I like Bobby’s because he’s so consistent video to video. I know what he’s going to dislike before he says it. I base a lot of my purchases off of his reviews.

    I'm liking the orange a bit less as I watch reviews and pics, but also not sure I want FT to release another version in toon colors especially if a limited edition. I feel like they might, and they are setting up Warpath to do the same. Have there been other figures where they took this approach besides Cyclonus?

    I am not a fan of BBTS. It's like they dabble in just too many things and cannot keep their site accurate. I recall them having some stuff for Constructor forever on preorder and I just cancelled it. TFS and Showz and some others are my go to shops.

    I have my Bruticon preordered with them, at this point, I’d like to cancel, but I had to front $75. Live and Learn.

    You're right someone at BBTS should have that information, but it doesn't mean everyone does.

    Diecast's video review has a big ass orange diorama right behind Maverick... there's a color difference between the two.
