Only a few hours left in this round to vote! Clutch holding a 6-pt lead now and looks like he will probably advance to Round 5 and the Final Four.

Clutch beating Wild Bill is the most unexpected result in the whole tournament for me. Clutch is a high quality figure, don’t get me wrong - but there is a lot of reuse involved. Wild Bill on the other hand is largely new and loaded with character specific detail like the cowboy boots, the hat, the gun belt etc. Genuinely thought Wild Bill would win this one easily.

Agreed. To DBs point earlier in one of these threads, its just a fun tournament / game for people to be engaged in here.

At this point I dont put any stock in the results. Obviously it is all subjective, but outside of the fact that the votes are disproportionate by round, Wild Bill being a haslab figure is probably hurting him here. I bet some people are just voting against the figure because they dont have it.

It may have been more predictable in a world where they're both stand-alone $25 characters. This is kind of a weird match because neither figure was as available in the quantity that there was demand for. They both have recent eBay sales @ $100+ for just the figure. That may hurt whichever candidate survives the next few hours.

More bracket pickers though OAMCC or Enforcer would win this round, but even among people who didn't WB held a slight edge over Clutch at four picks to three.

100% agree, please don't mistake my enthusiasm for seriousness. This is the dumb thing I think about to distract myself.

I like the structure and order of it all. Again, I feel the polls are worthy of their own sidebar because the information is good and - usually - the conversations within are useful.

I often assume you're posting comments from inside a balloon bear costume anyway.

Didn't finish as bad as I thought so far. Tough round though. Ready for 5 and then on to the victory lap for Mutt and Junkyard!!!!
