I bought one of his Snake Eyes v2 figures. It looks good, but it feels like it came out of a cereal box.

I have the WORMs set, Eels, 2nd wave of crimson guards, and a few misc. Most of it is quality.

i like them. i follow the group on facebook. i wish he wasnt instagram based and there are a ton of posts i cant see because he's so secretive and shares from his personal facebook page. not sure why they're going with bat legs on vipers now. i was never a fan of the 82-83 mold stuff.

they should not be 18-36 dollar figures. the best prices for them was when they were 12 bucks for stardusters and allthsoe accessories, but at the time they seemed expensive.

i liked red laser a little more, frankly. he was more accessible and used actual viper parts. some great stuff was planned before he had to close up.

Too much money for what they are. They'll never have official value, that doesn't mean they are worthless. (In fact people pay too much for some of them)

Some of his choices are baffling, like recreating the 1997 BAT legged Vipers and goofy tribute figures to like skeletor or something.

Took me forever to get him to approve my follow request on Insta, but it's worth the trouble for some of the bulk deals he'll put up. His individual figure prices don't work for me, but I loved the Alley Viper set he put out late last year. Felt like a hell of a buy - especially with all the accessories.

I like them. I'm not a fan of the straight reproductions, but I like the unique twists & color variants he does. I'm interested in some crossover designs he teased like 6 months ago too. O-Ring Power Rangers are something I'd be all over.

But the one time I ordered direct, I was blocked shortly after delivery. So I'm assuming they recognized my real name on my PayPal & blocked me for some reason or another.

Ive owned a couple of these, the steel brigade and a cobra trooper, they are decent, i always had issues getting the weapons in their hands, was always worried that the thumbs would break, i mean they are nice, but the price keeps me away from wanting more, especially as i said with the hands being so difficult to work with.

I discovered them in the summer of 2018, when they were nearly the only game in town. Love them, whether trooper and BAT variations or things like Tiger Force Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow. I usually only like about a fifth of what he puts out, but that fifth is just dynamite usually.

I collect vintage o-ring, BM, and the o-ring kickstarter lines like Recall, Longbow, and LOTHF, and then also Hasbro?s Classified and Star Wars lines. Very grateful to Hasbro for not squashing any of these beautiful fan efforts ❤️

Let the lawyers argue over who owns ?Taco Tuesday? instead!

hasbro is why red laser and black major are so secretive. fortunately they cant get the kickstarters for their own designs and hasbro cant ding anyone for o-ring construction.
