That's cool. You don't have to agree with my opinions, but at least I'm being positive instead of bashing everything new just because it's the trending hate train. You guys are welcome to hate any design you want, I just don't see the point in crying about it in every thread endlessly. There's literally no reason to go to the thread if you don't have anything positive to say. But I guess you have nothing better to do with your time lol. I bet you folks hate millennial too.

You all feel free to continue trashing every new figure and talking about how amazing the prequels were and how the sequels are Disney feminist garbage or whatever it is. You totally make these forums a fun place to be ����

No one is crying except you. Do you even read your own garbage? I bolded all your attempts to belittle or insult DarkChocobi. In one thread you gush over someone, because you like their style of not critiquing anything they don't like. You can go Tinder them later. This is a discussion board, its going to have positive views, its going to have negative views, and its going to have "Meh" views. If you can't handle it, its honestly just your problem, because for all your supposed "positive" vibe, you're constantly negative to others peoples opinions, do you not see the irony in that. In just this post alone you make an assumption of how the poster feels about an entire generation of people, make fun of anyones negative thoughts about sequels and then proceed to tell him how much fun he makes this place.

No ones keeping you here, and in case you missed it, theres no thread saying, lets discuss Dark Chocobi. At the very least anyone bashing a movie or toy are sticking to the damn topic unlike you. Heres an idea, for someone who acts so holier than thou, try extending the same courtesy you think every toy should get to the other posters on this forum, you know actual PEOPLE, unlike the intellectual properties and toys you seem to feel need your championing. I've had figures and statues that I think were great and I read through negative opinions non-stop, it doesn't affect my opinion one bit because, believe it or not, I realize on the internet people can like or dislike the same thing.

I'll personally give my opinion on these boards on anything I want, positive or negative, you don't like it? Suck it. Take it to PMs.

Yet you left out all the parts where you previously called me a blind fan boy piece of **** and accusing anyone that likes anything new as being lower than you. All because I thought the designs were cool. In what way is THAT not a personal attack?

Not to mention there's more personal attacks in your comment than mine where I said it's lame that all some people do is complain and I don't see the point of just coming to threads to be negative.

You seem so nice.

I'd rep this if I could. :goodpost:

So it's cool for him to say I'm a fan boy piece of **** for liking the new designs, yet suddenly I'm the bad guy for saying that it's dumb people are just coming here to complain and put down those that like the entire thing the thread is about?

Yep, fawning fan boy POS's that think everything is AWESOME DUDE!

^^^^So that's okay, right? But not calling people out for belittling and insulting those who like the figures. Seriously? You guys don't see what's hypocritical about that?

Wish their sleeves were smooth. Or made in same way as Kylo's in VII....
Could be so much easier on my eyes.

I wonder if they'll have issues with articulation due to the sleeves. Not sure what material they could do to the elbows without making it obvious.

The fan boy comment was in reference to you generalizing all Star Wars fans, I even quoted the comment, but HONESTLY, that portion wasn't 100% directed just to you, in general I've seen a couple people whos attitude seems to be don't come into a thread if you don't 100% like the product, but you had just insulted another member in a thread by saying he was either a troll or "just didn't understand", so you were probably feeling it 100% was aimed at you.

If you want to keep it on topic, then stay on topic and stop trying to make people post the way you like. Making fun of Star Wars fans in a generalized statement hits at a lot of people at once, playing the martyr doesn't help your cause after you had just accused naseco of being a troll or being to dense to understand a Star Wars movie. Everything is time stamped, cry me a river when you threw the first rock to insult people because they don't agree with you.

You just need to decide if you want every conversation your in to devolve into finger pointing or you want to talk about figures.

First of all, I'm a Star Wars fan - so I'm including myself in that generalization. Have you never heard the phrase, "No one hates Star Wars more than Star Wars fans"? It's honestly true. I'm not saying people are unable to dislike anything, I could care less. I just think it's funny that for the last year or two, the main complaint from many Star Wars fans (including myself) is that TFA was too similar. And now that we are getting some new things introduced, whether it be the Supremacy, the nuns, guards (which I realize are similar to the Royal Guards), etc.. a lot of those same people are complaining that these things do not look like they belong in Star Wars. I'm not saying that's how you or anyone else specifically feel, but that is the reality of many Star Wars fans that are unhappy with x,y,z.

Your comment was certainly directed enough at me for it to be considered a personal attack and to be offensive, which is why I found it hypocritical that you started calling me out suddenly for responding to people who were insulting me just for my opinion.

I said that I liked the design. I was insulted by you and a few other posters soon after saying that I was a blind fan boy POS, that my definition of "awesome" was stupid, that I was blinded by nostalgia, etc.

So apparently it's fine for anyone to **** on other people's opinions, unless they conflict with yours.

In that other thread, not only did you respond to my post wondering if he was trolling with a non-combative response, there were a few others that either wondered the same or made similar comments. Again, you single me out. And if he didn't like the movie, good for him. I was honestly wondering if he was trolling because he referred to Rey as Kylo's twin sister and some other stuff that seemed pretty obvious to me watching the movie once, such as Kylo intentionally not being a huge badass.

Everyone does their fair share of complaining, arguing, etc. Yet you've singled me out and you've done a fair share of trying to personally insult me, which is contradictory to you saying people should just talk about the figures and not the people.
So if you're going to preach that people should act a certain way, you should do that as well.

I'm not going to argue with you about this anymore because it's completely pointless and clearly we have different opinions. But you can't really expect me to just take all of your insults for saying I like something, and not respond. There's no reason that I should just let people insult me personally for an opinion I have on a figure, including people calling me a piece of **** fan boy or that I'm blinded and have a skewed perspective. And yes, I realize the same can be said for people that insult someone for disliking something.

This is getting tiresome. Verbal ping-pong. Can we get back to praising or bashing figures, not eachother?

I'll start:

Love the OT.
Totally hate the prequels.
Love EVII.
Like RO.
Looking forward to watching VIII.
Not hating, but still bothered by the Lobster design.

Group hug :grouphug

Yes, you will. If anything your responses to me and others, indicate that. As to your other point, I wouldn't want someone to crucify you just for your opinion on collectibles, I just don't like your wide sweeping statements, glad to know you consider yourself part of them. guess that makes it a little easier.

I'll stick to the on topic portion of this. :lol

The design to me is cheap, wish they would have went with something totally new that did not immediately evoke the IG.
 
So these Praetorian Guards, I wonder which one they're gonna release first. I hope they don't pull a RO Death Trooper, where the Specialist was announced first, and THEN the Deluxe and regular versions a couple months later. If there's gonna be a deluxe version at all, it should be announced at the same time.
 
They may do a similar release to maximize profit. If so maybe wait till they're all teased/released then choose.
 
I can't figure out which one is actually elite. lol. Between Hasbro, Jakks, SHF and Funko, there is no way to tell as each helmet had been called elite by one or the other.
