Well, I don't think anyone thinks you're lying. As you said, no reason to. I don't recall whether you tried doing what Naptime said, but if not it's definitely worth a try. I doubt that it's an issue restricted to one company's products.

Hey those are my pics! Awesome! It was really cool getting to talk with John. At first we were talking and he mentioned stuff about custom resin casting and I was like, "Who is this guy? He looks so familiar." My family and I left to grab some lunch and it was over lunch that it hit me who he was. So, we went back to the Con and I spoke with him some more.
John said that he's actually using the same company that Marauders does to make their action figures. So, again, these guys should be even more compatible with MTF figures than BFS. Jason |

I was there and got to see these figures first hand. John even allowed me to handle some of the figures. The sculpting is amazing! Now, I'm not a fan of Western action figures, but I can see where some of the parts could be used for other types of customs.
The build is compatible with MTF figures. They have the same ball neck joint and the solid torso with a ball joint at the pelvis that can pop off. My favorite of the figures is the "Marshall." I told John, "You might call this figure the 'Marshall,' but my first thought was 'I'm your huckleberry.'" As far as a "mascot" goes, I'm not too sure what you're talking about there. However, John did mention that he plans for female characters in future waves and that he has talked with Marauder John about possibly using the K9 sculpt with a new head and tail to have a "Cattle Dog." So, maybe the Cattle Dog is the mascot you've heard about? I don't know. We talked for about 30 minutes or so about various customizing stuff and the state of GIJoe collecting. He had a TON of custom resin cast stuff for sale. I scored a 1:18 Stan Lee headsculpt, a custom resin cast Slip Stream helmet made from the vintage head sculpt but hollowed out and some other stuff. The dude even has some resin cast USS Flagg parts like doors, Y-pins, deck clips, crane engine cover etc. So if you're looking for some parts to complete your Flagg and don't care that they are resin cast, you might look him up on Facebook under JE Russell. Here are some pictures I posted on Facebook "I'm your huckleberry" Jason |

I used a Mac Mini running Firefox to place my order. Maybe the problem is Safari?

Yes, I believe that is it.

I hope you do not mind that I put the pictures, they were the only ones I've seen of the Little Rock Convention. If I had been there, I would have asked JE Russell a thousand questions about the following figures they have in mind ... from the horses ( I hope I can see better the final design that shows it), even the wave with Native Americans
Like I said, I'm not a fan of Western action figures. So we talked more about the history of custom resin casting and the state of collecting/customizing in general. Jason |

I’m pretty sure that was a very specific reference to something else. Does anyone do Facebook? Maybe someone could ask on the Facebook page?

I hope they do some Westworld-inspired female characters.
