You're not buying these (right?) but constantly rant everywhere on how bad are these and all and yet I never reacted on your personal view on it, and respected it. After all that is your view and has every right to have to.

Can you please not push your whatever on my personal enjoyment and me being ecstatic please?

I am already bummed out on what happened to MOTUC CG Filmation ending with missing core characters, so for Thundercats I am grabbing this chance to finally have a small complete set of main characters on my small collection quickly (i waited for years and I don't want to waste time waiting for the adjusted abs of Lion-O, for adjusted limbs of Jackalman, for the adjusted shade of blue color shorts of Panthro) I want my time spent enjoying these not waiting and my supposedly "low" standard is content to what I will be getting. I am ecstatic and you know what, for some it is fine to feel that.

You all have valid point and glad your pointing those out, but I don't want to wait for the "perfect" Thundercats anymore, I am ok with this and what Mattel made prior to it.

When you count the days from when S7 sent the e-mail that it will take about 10 days for it to reach them, that means it is today. So if all went smoothly they should start shipping in the next week or so. Can’t wait!

I just found your use of the word "ecstatic" to be funny describing owning Jackalman.
If you are opening your figures you can at least boil and pop the joinrs and put them on the correct legs.
Enjoy your Jackalmen.

As for "ranting" all I have done is point out obvious flaws on a subpar product. That is why I am not buying them and in their current state unlike certain reviewers I wouldn't even want them for free. Perhaps had Super7 had someone to run these by rather than apologist fan boys just happy for whatever they release they would probably be releasing better products for fans.

Thank you for finding my ecstaticness funny. Like, "yeah I collect these so I can enjoy and be excited" and "look how hilarious I am", right?

But since you brought up stuff that are funny, what I find funny is for someone having all that amount of time and energy on focusing on sub-par something which that someone has no interest in buying that something and I don't know why someone keep bringing it up especially when that someone is so convinced that the owner, eventhough knows the flaw, is letting it all slide and the company making them is so incapable in making a decent 7 inches scale collectible figures.

Oh, and yes I am enjoying for now a Jackalman and soon Jackalmen, thank you.

I said I found the use of the word ecstatic funny, not you. I found it funny anyone saying they were ecstatic about owning a flawed product like Jackalman. Same with Pumyra and WilyKat.
Your English isn't great so I will reply as best as I can. But yes I do believe Super7 are incapable of making decent collectible 7" figure line and do think Brian and Super7 should have higher quality standards. Especially on premium priced made to order products.
As for my buying, I buy what I like and I did have interest in buying some of Super7's Ultimates figures. Had the figures actually been good quality even at their ridiculous price, I might have bought some of them...but like all Super7's 7" figures for the most part they are the usual awful standad with quality control issues so I will not buy those figures.

I’ve refrained from commenting until now, because the whole fray felt overblown and black-or-white, but enough is enough. There are plenty of fans who have pre-ordered, who are looking forward to future waves, who want this line to get to a point where we’ll see characters we’ve never seen in toy form before. motugp_fanatic and others have every right to be excited about that potential, to spend their money however they want, and, yes, to provide constructive feedback along the way. Mark M, you have every right to express disappointment and offer reasoned criticism. But arguing for argument’s sake and trolling each other’s choices and opinions is a step too far. Tone it down.

I’ll also point out that this is a fan site dedicated to keeping ThunderCats relevant and fanning the flames of nostalgia, and, like it or not, toys are a big part of that. Enthusiasm for the line and Sebastiaan’s work on social media are what allowed us to open a channel of communication with Super7 in the first place. You catch more flies with honey, as they say. Call that bias if you want, but I think there’s room for enthusiasm and optimism alongside constructive criticism. In fact, being enthusiastic and optimistic positions us to have our criticisms taken more seriously.

I did not argue for arguments sake, I made a joke about the Mattel and Super7 Jackalman when motugp-fanatic said e was ecstatic about adding them to his colelction. I found it funny considering the Super7 figure has the same fault as the previous Mattel.
The ony thing I called "bias" was ToyBro's reviews regarding the situation on Twitter and Youtube regarding a Chinese reviewers TMNT reviews.

I'll stop now as respect to the forum and its admins and its community. I said my piece and I apologize for any sorts of inconvenience it brought the community.

If I may have a last thing to say, i want everyone to know that it is ok for you to enjoy these toys and the collection no matter how imperfect it is. Don't let the "fun" part escape you, if you let it, these toys and the collecting aspect of it, will just become one big expensive and frustrating activity in your life.

Hope my english is good enough to articulate this and guys please have fun, this is what all this is about.
