Gen 1 no... I have the first few issues of Gen 2. I don't recall much about them.

I can't speak for the TF comics, but I thoroughly enjoyed the DDP Joe run. I know it's not really canon anymore since they decided to continue the Marvel numbering, but it was good stuff.
Hicks, you're about to get a PM. |

Well, I'm currently in the process of closing out any remaining BBTS preorders and finding other retailers.

There's a new set of Sharkticons being released through iGear. It's a three-pack and a seller out of China was adding an additional figure [same mold, different color, labeled as a "Leader"] as a free bonus. Basically, four figures for the price of three. A price already lower than BBTS' by about ten dollars.
I sent BBTS an email asking if they'd be adding the extra figure to their offer as well since the only listing they had for it was for $40... Instead of just saying, "no" or something like that, they went to iGear complained about the other seller and got him in trouble. He's had to remove the listing from his site for the time being. Like I've told Hellion, this is twice now that BBTS has done something like this. The first being when the one Bravo Wave of PoC vehicles came out with the black HiSS tanks. BBTS started filling my sealed case orders [before the case came in stock at their store] with leftovers from other cases they opened to fill single vehicle orders. I think the case was the HiSS and Fury. I got leftover brown HiSS tanks and Furies from previous case assortments. When I emailed them explaining that it's not what I ordered and asked them take back the "sets", I explained that the reason I wanted the sealed cases was because I knew the black HiSSes were going to be in them. They replied saying that they knew nothing of the color change and told me that they wouldn't take back the shipped order on grounds that it was "the same thing". In response, I explained it wasn't and provided images of the cases I had already received from another seller [Toywiz, I think] with proof of my claims. They responded explaining that they would take back the brown tanks for store credit I could use towards purchasing the black tanks at their inflated price. Basically, I wouldn't be getting a one-for-one exchange. They also took down the "case" listing and replaced it with a listing for a Fury and brown HiSS, selling all the cherry picked black tanks for a higher price. You know, the PoL system is basically the only reason I've dealt with them this long. If TFSource's stack system were as straight forward, I'd've left BBTS long ago. As it is now, I'm finding the "stacking" system through TFSource won't let me go over a certain price order limit. Say, buying two of the upcoming Grilocks through it. |

Since those would qualify for free shipping anyway, turn the stack off for that order, then back on afterwards?

Man, wow. I have had nothing but sterling experiences with BBTS. Dismayed to hear this, Hicks.

Man, that does sound bad on their part.
I just got a bbts order in, been dealing with them for 5 or 6 years without a hitch. Now a UPS I can bitch about nonstop.

Hellion, yeah, I wound up just breaking up the orders per figure. And the answer to your question, 3.
Yeah, BBTS is getting worse the bigger they get. So yeah, fuck them. I can't undo my orders for the early bird sales for the MMC feralcons through them because no one else will honor the deal at this point... But that's the last thing I'm going to be receiving from them. Should be good news for TFSource and CapturedPrey though. |
