That's cool "buddy", cause after your unprofessional ranting I'm sure Shocker Toys is dead to everyone here as well. You definitely need to go back to school take some business courses.

If this was a big, real company.... like Hasbro or Mattel.... This guy would've been silenced or fired because his PR skills are none and his ability to take constructive criticism from his target market is nill.

To me, this guy is as stupid and as blind as the idiot sellers that we get on here from time to time with an *SQUEE* backwards understanding of supply and demand.

Considering that Hasbro does at least tries to listen their customers' desires, complaints, and concerns and if needed they will address and explain them in a calm mannor, you could do well follow their example.

If you don't believe me go to Botcon and watch the Hasbro discussion
panel.

I'd like to make a suggestion, as a toy company, it would probably be cool if you made some toys that we can buy. I don't know, just a thought.

Question? Why does shocker toys spend his time at other boards? No body actually posts at his, excluding employees. It's a sad sad little board. I had to check it out to see if this was really Shocker Toys or just some sad angry little man it turned out to be both. The same nasty attitude that he exhibts is prevailent in his boards. For a good laugh read his posting rules. anyone who questions his way to run things (or not run things depending on your perspective) is labeled a hater. If you go to other sites and tell it like it is, you are a hater, but he welcomes the free publicity. Honestly check out Shocker toys forums. Look at the dates of the postings, look at who actually makes the majority of threads. Shocker Toys is a lonely lonely place. How does the company stay afloat? Lower overhead. He must sell his blanks really well though, have to admit. Oh and if you want to know where he cut his teeth in customer service, he was a construction worker. But really I think he gives construction workers a bad name.

If the staff had started a rift here I apologize. Me being a comic fan would love to see Valiant in the lineup. There is alot of great stuff in Series1 and 2 and some inbetween like Solar and Magnus. Series1 has had its' articulation reworked and will have new paints based on the comic artworks.

Also Dethklok is being done 3-D print this time the SDCC sculptors were let go as well as all other sculptors. Nothing seems to get dead on other then 3-D sculpts. You will like the new set that will be available before and at SDCC this year.

I'm assuming you're someone different than the other person who has been posting with the Shocker Toys name here. You might want to keep that person from posting here because with their insulting way of communicating, they're not doing anything here but losing you potential customers. Just my :twocents:
