    I had a chance to play with my friend's Locke, and there's no way that thing is better than my Yellow Constructor Set. I mean it's literally night and day.

    shoot the messenger, classic … I may be a tad impolite for the refined neckbeards, but if more vitriol was reserved for XTB we’d actually be getting better toys, just a thought

    Hopefully tfs-express won't expect more money out of me to get my replacement sent.

    I've just messaged them. I returned mine though, so my reply might not address every circumstance

    I'm not exaggerating when I say that I think that what they'll do is just ship the "improved" version to retailers who will sell you that copy in place of the one you returned and then give everybody who kept an original one a $10 gift card code for being so understanding with them.

    That's my standard right now and also my secret hope so that I get to hear "wElL aCkChEwUaLlY tHe WaY tHaT bUsiNeSs wErkS..." responses from overweight, sentient swivel chairs who have never had a job outside of their homes once we see just how much they fall short of all of the screen caps people have of them saying it'll be a full replacement.

    I'm betting they send you a copy of Toro instead and then tell you that if you're unhappy, to contact Miss Zou. That's about my expectation here.

    I PO'd from BBTS and they never got their initial shipment in, so I've yet to receive or pay for anything as of yet. Whenever they do receive their order, it should be of the corrected version, they charge me and send it out, no worries on returning anything or paying for shipping all over again. No muss, no fuss.

    I guess one of the advantages of not being too concerned with BBTS's lateness in regard to getting product in.

    Just to keep the running diary going: this is attempt #873828;7383849/93’ to get XTB on record as to what they’ll be expecting of current owners. Results are negligible.

    When asking if they’d set a firm order number/cost or a list of expectations to get a defective copy fixed, I received:

    1) Vague blow-off by XTB social media editor
    2) Banal, repetitive simping from XTBootlicker fan.

    Everybody says it’s the FansBoys who are the worst, but the Bootlickers have them beat by a mile. At least FT buyers are excited about a typically good product.
