I'm of two minds on this. I've been frequenting their page since this new announcement popped up.
1) From a customer service standpoint and just from a representative image of the company he's trying to establish, he probably could have handled that better. In general, it's just not a good look. But I imagine it's hard when you're smaller company like that. I'd be banning and blocking people too. People are so venomous and spiteful. I can't even imagine the private messages he's gotten as opposed to the publicly posted ones. Because.....
2) That page is flooded with entitled man babies. From everything I've read and seen, it seems to me like he didn't lie. (The post of him saying he did, was straight up being sarcastic and poking the bear. Again, not a great look) He put something out that was a one time run. And it was. What he put out is never going to come out again. I'm sure phrasing it like he did created FOMO and this situation. But now there is a new product, with new colors, new sculpts and newly molded pieces. It's a new thing. Sure it's what everyone wanted in the first place, but everyone knew exactly what they were paying for and getting when they placed those orders. He told people that was the look he wanted to put out.
Now that he's putting out what they actually wanted, they believe they're entitled to discounts or a pound of flesh. And it's ridiculous. Would I be upset if I was them? Sure. But that's the risk of being a first adopter. You gotta suck that up. If they didn't like the look of these things, they shouldn't have bought them. Just like I did. They weren't the Centurions I wanted, so I passed.
Actually you're wrong. We didn't know exactly what we were getting in terms of paint and sculpt. We had a rough idea but it was very rough.
And the post, which might be gone now...IDK b/c I haven't looked again, stated something like all of their productions were 1 time runs with the molds. The way he phrased it literally made it seem like you could never get the Centurions again. It was super underhanded and he HAD to be planning this from before they went to the factory b/c these are coming out way too soon for him to not have been doing that. It's just scummy.
