3 on 1?
Sounds fair judging from their beta ways. Those dudes bitch and whine more than the guys who preordered classfied figures. Flip flops gave you the advantage. I?m honestly surprised anyone is still fucking with this clown, his associates or his shit copy paste designs. But I don?t think they were expecting the 20+ dudes in the lobby to back me up, either. I?m just glad they to poorly structured arguments, lame insults, & not having a sense of humor. It was disrespectful enough to the convention without turning to violence. But I was genuinely worried that they were there to physically harm me. The sexual energy was weirdly high. I really think Tony wanted to kiss me. But that might just be cuz he was hella drunk & I have big tits.

Interesting that his fans rail on Hasbro for all the recent repaints yet Valaverse has to do it to maximize the cost for tooling Wave 1 and nobody complaining about the repaints. Just like they railed on Classified for having to take off the arms to remove vest yet you have to take apart Action Force at the waist if you want to put a gear pack belt on.
What was on the shirt that got them all riled up? The line is doing the exact same shit Hasbro is. Repaints on repaints. Reissues in fancy packaging. Exclusive accessories and calling it an exclusive. I mean? he?s literally rerunning series 1 which is the same thing Classified did. You couldn?t write this shit if you tried. At least when Hasbro does it you aren?t out as much money.

I think it's safe to say by now that the initial shipment is lost and will never hit BBTS's warehouse. Port backlogs do not explain 6 months late. Bobby probably has no choice but to do another run to fulfill the order.
Even if the original batch does arrive, they may not send them out because of the potentially expensive customer service disaster.

In their defense? it was mostly 2-1, cuz Bobby let Mike & Tony take all the risk.

Sounds like he's working out an exit strategy. If he's still having to pack his own orders, he's screwed. That means he's not doing enough volume or making enough profit to hire one minimum wage employee. Which would be fine if this was a side-hustle, but if this is his only source of income, it's not sustainable. He shits on Boss Fight all the time, but Boss Fight's primary source of revenue is selling their services to other toy companies. Same with Four Horsemen. With other 1-man toy operations, the owner has a day job.
I just imagine Bobby going deeper in debt with each new wave. The growth he was counting on will never come and he will eventually hit his credit limit and you'll see his output slow way down as all his resources go toward paying off the interest of his loans. He definitely wants to sell while his company has the outward appearance of being successful. I would feel bad for him, but if he acts his a big-shot asshole while under a mountain of debt, how would he behave if he was actually successful or rich? He'd become something out of the Purge movies. Thankfully, we'll never find out. |
