People aren't stupid so saying stuff like, "it's really annoying when some of us understand why this is as it is" is super condescending. If you're typing stuff like that, do not be surprised when you're treated like a shill.

My question is why would they need to specify that when they already have through the Team Rider side of things multiple times when it comes to literally everything they bring over?

Like at this point if you're following either of those accounts you'd see that mentioned more than once whenever someone asks about specific releases and things brought to the west. They say time and time again that stuff needs approval to be sold or brought stateside. They can't control what does or doesn't get the go-ahead. It's why you get weird stuff like the Shodo Kuuga set as the "Lets gauge interest" P-Bandai offering for the Shodo audience. Would have made more sense being a standard set, but they get what they get and have to roll with it just like we do.

And again, I'll criticize the shit out of both parties and do for multiple things. They don't give me shit to keep me from doing that or to change my mind and even if they did I'd still be transparent. I just think it's dumb that THIS is the thing people get pissed at when it's probably the most basic, to-the-point thing they've offered in months. Literally no fine-print, catches, etc. Here's a collab figure we're able to offer as P-Bandai, if it sells we could see more offered.

Bluefin definitely deserves the push-back for the wording, I just think it's funny that THEY'RE the reason for all this negativity when the KR-specific PR account that I'm sure a majority learned about this from in the first place's been the one pushing this item more and hasn't said anything close to that blunt.
