They should be thanking me for leading this pack.

At first I disagreed with older members leaving or letting casual haters get in the way. But I now find my self agreeing with the ones who left and get why so many up and coming customizers hate this community now.

Guess the truth hurts from both angles.

I get the frustration, plenty of the threads in here I start on and never return for the negative on what they are supposed to love. This is a fan site, and I get being mad at stuff you love on occasion, but some people seem to just hate on everything.

Keep rocking what you love and making it your own. I know most of my versions of the characters in my head are a mix of the cartoon, comic and my own ideas. I tie a lot of family together like Lady Jaye and Destro, Scarlett and RnR being step siblings, etc. I like to make it my own.

I can't customize for shit, but I admire the people who can for sure. My best customs when I was a kid was taking silver paint to all my Joe vehicles for the tire lugs, engine block details, etc. I spent three days painting the details on every vehicle I had back then, and thought it was the coolest when I opened a skystriker panel and saw silver engine parts.

Man, I would give up Classified forever in exchange for a series of figures boasting designs like this. Well done!
