Not all, but a lot do. Those that do not say it never stick up for us. The only ones that do, collect both sizes.

Yes it was really bad when Marvel Universe started. They were not "playfully" trolling but outright insulting. It still makes little sense to me to hate on something that you already have no intention of buying. They aren't really trolls but just jerks. I'm sure some of them are also stereotypical Hot Wheels collectors.
