Sideshow sucks. I hate that I still have open orders with them, but whatever. I’m not cancelling and losing the deposit at this point. Their rewards system is utter trash now.

Also, Wonder Woman and the DCEU was great, up until Zack Snyder had to leave Justice League.
More or less same. I think the loss of some long time PR heads (Susan was amazing) is big. A lot of the current faces....clearly don't know shit. Not just about their jobs, but about so called geek culture. A lot of Sideshow really is just a joke at this point and it's a shame since they've done good things before....
I love the original game. The sequels are good, but definitely don’t hold a handle to the first. It’s going to be difficult for them to make this work, without consulting with the original team,
Dead Space 2 is nearly on par, but I think it lacks some of its surprise factor. Dead Space 3 was screwed over so badly. Part of me is rubbed the wrong way with how EA doesn't seem to be getting anyone from Visceral Games to develop it, but maybe it'll be fine. I'll have to wait and see.

The only thing I remember about Dead Space 2 is how aesthetic the environments were, you're in a big city iirc and I vaguely remember it having a bit of a cyberpunk look to it, I never bothered with 3 is just didn't even look like it belongs to the same franchise

According to Zackary, Susan may have cost herself her job. She wasn’t whom she seemed to be. Take that with a grain of salt, because he’s only posted here a few times at best (and it may have even been on the previous forum we had) and I don’t get a chance to watch his videos as much as, say Justin—who’s more predominantly in my YouTube feed than anyone else.

I mean, yeah. Most of these people aren't that great irl, happens all the time. Susan's time at least gave out more prizes/freebies (I even got a free Hot Toys Bust that wasn't planned). But I've seen a lot that stated Susan being forced out is what resulted in the changes to SSC.

Human beings are shit. Or at least the majority of them are. Some people are just better at hiding it than others. It is legitimately rare to find an actual decent human being in this day and age. We are shaped by the world and our environment, in most cases.

That site has become so much worse lately with scammers lmao
I almost never go there. The only reason I do is if YouTube doesn’t have videos of recent figures that I know are releasing. Usually, there’s someone flaunting their early figures on SSF. At least it’s not as much of a dumpster fire site as it was. You couldn’t even load the Dragon Ball thread properly.

It's sad but true. But I don't think Susan could be as bad as the rest of SSC, she def had issues and I saw a few. I'm just grateful for the prize I won at least. I really just can't stand how incompetent and fake the reps are with their 'knowledge'.

Why would you even go to the Dragon Ball thread? Granted it improved, but wow, that thread was one of the worst on the forum back in the day. You can tell there's something really wrong with those weebs, like being so intimidated to talk about Avengers in the Marvel forum, starting fights all the time, shit talking some figures for no reason.... a lot of them either left or were perma banned for a reason. You're better off literally anywhere else. I'm not kidding when I said some of them had legitimate issues.

I don’t know if she’s a bad person. Don’t particularly care. I’m just wary of people more than I used to be. I don’t take things at face value. If there’s an issue, I try to see both sides of it and then make an observational judgment afterward.

Anyway, I rarely ever go to SSF. That forum died when sideshow decided to pull that little stunt some years back.

I don’t trust forum members any more than I trust Facebook members. In fact, the deal I had with Snake, some time back, was the first one in… god knows how long. Ten years, I’d bet.

Definitely make sure to cover your ass, when dealing with anyone not tied to a service like ebay or Amazon.

After getting screwed out of a little bit of money, whenever I send shit I take tons of photos to guarantee everything is in the box and always buy insurance.

The sheer amount of people looking to get free shit or scam someone out of their stuff… it’s disgusting. Have to agree with something my dad told me the first time I got scammed out of $120 on eBay fifteen years ago. “They’re lucky we don’t show up to their house and beat the door down.” He elaborated further, but you get the gist.
