Great points Sithlord, I came to Toyark well after the big fallout that led to the orignal 3.75 thread getting blocked (From what I have heard) so I too have no real bias toward anyone on here, but I have met and dealt with some great people, regardless of longevity, but here is where my personal testimony will lie.
I used to login to toyark everyday and only click on one thread "The New Marvel 3.75 appreciation thread", then a couple years later this thread popped up and although I felt like an outsider since I wasn't in the UK (I went to University of Kentucky, does that count?), I had a new thread to check in on daily. Then the re-branding occurred... I was really wanting Antman and Ares, but almost everyone else was a figure that I had already made a custom for and it really starting grinding my gears that the official product was worse than my amateur custom work (not to diminish my work, but I had no artistic ability prior to working on figures and dioramas). After a year or so of collecting inferior products Hasbro Re-Branded again AND raised the price. I was not happy with these changes and began to share a more negative outlook on the line that once brought me the most joy from my collection. I, like Jay and yourself, don't come here to be petty or negative, so like my Mama taught me "If you don't have anything nice to say don't say anything at all" I started posting less and started to reading so much more on toyark. But in that time that I was upset with the state of the line, Pilk continued to post his customs and things he was working on as well as encouraged others to post more and give him ideas. I'm sure he felt the same way about the line that I did, but he was still a positive and active member of the community. I want to point this out, because I don't think Pilk is at fault for feeling like he has been a positive contribution to the community, because he obviously has and continues to be.
Lets get back to toys and do a quick question how long ago and what was the last marvel 3.75" thing you picked up?
For me I picked up the 2 Spiderman 2 packs a couple weeks ago. Before that I had picked up the Groot/Rocket Comic pack and Quasar from Dorkside.com on the cheap! Sorry not trying to bring the hate, as I'm sure some of these are more difficult on your part of the globe.
