I never said they were greedy scalpers, but they did charge insane prices for even domestic retail items like the legacy line. $500 for the tommy morpher while it was still on shelves 5 blocks away at ToysRUs. I understand they needed to make a profit, and pay for the inflated rent that a downtown retail space would cost in NYC, but sometimes their pricing on things really crossed the line, like when they actually did scalp on bluefin releases. The most recent one being the Best Selection Ultraman for $65, when as a Bluefin retailer, it should've been $35-$38. Im not saying they're greedy, and i understand why the price on non- bluefin imports is high, but on other things, the insane prices just make you wonder. Plus, a lot of their stock is off ebay. I've seen them get packages of product from Ebay all the time, i doubt the import cost are that bad when they buy stuff dirt cheap off there in bulk and resell at their crazy margins, especially the henshin trinkets.

They've even bought off other Bluefin retailers at cons and sold the products for insane markups at their stall. They cleared out a few stalls stock of Gp ride watches, at one con, for $6-$7 dollars each and resold at $18-$21 each at their stall. In my earlier comments i never insuated they were greedy scalpers, but their buisness practices really look it.

If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck.

What happened to all the older users of the forum? Sentai Tamashii, Sentai, MoonBaseTom, Reigner, Shin Densetsu, Conundrum, Denshin, Kamen Rider Meteor, Gosei Wonder etc. One day they all just never logged back on and vanished from the forum.

So apparently parents in Japan are complaining that the new Demon Slayer movie is 'too violent' for children and that their kids can't sleep at night after seeing the movie because they're 'too scared' and stuff. Uh, yeah no dip Sherlock, why on earth would you bring your kids to see that?

Ah yes our predecessors. The greats of olde. Let us our pay respects in rememberance of them. Did they lose interest? Did they pass away? Or will they return as the legends foretold? Nontheless, their mark remains within the ancient threads.

*clears throat* Some of us are still here. *chuckles*

I'm pretty sure I remember one of them getting banned... but yeah, by and large; it's strange to me just how much quieter the forum seems compared to yesteryear. Though I certainly feel we've got a lot of great people right now!

That was gosei, he was kind of a jerk who constantly skated the line. He never broke the rules but got close to it a lot. He’s actually the reason we have a new how is everyone today thread.

Also hi everyone, I’ve been here a long while, so I can try answering questions.

Yeah, dude, sometimes people can just lurk for ten years and then suddenly start posting. It's been known to happen!

Lol, i didn't forget you psycho, your too much of a treasure to forget, as well as Deepsea, Kurona, and the rest of you lot!

I did mean it in the sense of the high influx of users that posted around the time of this forums inception, as Kurona stated. Im not gonna lie, you guys are frickin awesome in every way, and make this forum greater than it was. However, the rate at which some prominent posters literally vanished in the last 4-5 years specifically, is a bit curious.

I looked up Gosei, after posting, and yeah, he was a bit of an asshole.

And Die, first, ROFL, and second very, very cheeky!

Awww, that's so sweet!

I really mean it! You guys are very welcoming, ecstatic, and just overall a very jovial bunch. You welcome people to the forums with open arms, your highly analytical, introspective, and, most of all, sympathetic. I've never experienced such riveting and thrilling chats anywhere else. And I've never seen such heartfelt gestures of empathy.

Even with so many users going MIA over the years, in this small window of time that we're in, you guys make the forums amazing and memorable.

You guys are what honestly make the forums great! Toys and Spandex Supehero shows can be bought with money, but this right here is, just, priceless.
