Nothing disingenuous about saying comments about this product being negative is neither good or a bad thing. As far any other Haslab probably the worst reactions I've seen. I feel it was warranted..but that's me. As far as all of toy Fandom. I don't like that many toys so that I don't care about nor do I care to research the matter.

I guess my issue is the very pitchforks you're acknowledge existing on either side to begin with. If I'm mocking something it's the escalation to the pitchfork over anything involving what are, at the end of the day, children's toys, not the side of the argument. I understand that negative comments aren't inherently good or bad, I understand criticism is necessary, but when you (proverbial, not you you) start throwing the word "schill" around at people who want this or are excited I think it's escalated. When people are giddily reporting the loss of backers, I think it's escalated And there's criticisms to be made of this whole thing towards those in the "back this" side too. But that sort of makes the point doesn't it? That there's all of a sudden "sides" in this, that toy collecting has also found a way to be an "us vs them" thing like every other thing. It all feels bad. And uniquely bad, as there doesn't seem to be anything equivalent. That was my point.
