Btw, do I really have to ask: Why the fuck is this bullshit in Japan Toys? Why is it here at all? Don't they make a Server tiny enough to cope with Mishka's fanbase?
It's one thing to be a cynical fan and picky about what you like. It's another thing entirely to post 3-5 posts in a row to show how much attention you need. Edit your first post and while you are at it, have a real point. If your point is "I do not like this toy and this is why" then say it and be done. We get it, you hate the Mishka, Lamour, NAG, Coop circle of acquaintances. You feel like they run on hype and they charge to much for toys you don't like. Now that I have summed that up for the masses you can stop because it comes across like one of your parents was never around and didn't know how to express their feelings. Needing that much attention or putting that much stock in your own opinion to others detriment is never a good look. For the record, I usually like you antics. Mainly because they are funny and don't take themselves to seriously. This diatribe on the other hand is just annoying and self serving. As someone who owns a Baby Huey and always wanted to see it in vinyl I am stoked to have this LS toy on the way. I will know how I feel about it when I actually see it but I am excited.
Leave my boy Alice alone. Haha. He's entitled to say what he feels. Made in Japan, sculpted and painted in Japan, I'm just some clown who doodled something who inspired the real artists
Sorry LS, I'm normally an Alice fan. Clicking on this thread 11 times just to see another Alice post got me riled up a bit. The slew of different personalities around here is one of the main draws but I think we all need a quick slap once in a while. Quick, someone slap me... hard... on the bum.
I'm not sure if Alice actually hates Mishka, Coop et cetera but I don't think he hates Nag (the dude has quite a few if I remember well). On the contrary I think that's the point you're missing: i don't think it's only about hype or what has been charged in the past, I think it's about seeing more coming from Shig and less from Mishka or Coop. IMHO once in a while is fine but almost every realease feels too much. At this point Nag as a maker or brand is essentially defined by one of the two... and where has the first Nag gone? When did the fucked up, post atomic caveman start riding hot rods and or listening to the Prodigy or Velvet Underground? I must admit that I am not a Coop fan but I can appreciate the influence he's had on some colabs... having said that I also would prefer seeing Nag going down his own path with the artwork and the presentation. And I am not putting his talent in doubt but more than anything looking forward for more pure Shig. In this sense I think I understand where Alice is coming from. Having said this I apologize for taking away focus from this thread's subject but just wanted to re: to your post with some additional thoughts.
Okay, you got me ... I lol'd. And Daimyo is right: my mother never loved me, and I hate myself & want to die. However I am far too much of a coward to actually top myself, so I cooked up this elaborate scheme to have Greg send one of his "boys" round and do it for me. "Who better than a New Yorker?" I thought. "And a New York Russian at that!" Unfortunately, my plan doesn't seem to be working, because LS, not I, is a gentleman. I doff my cap to you sir. Or ... has an agent already been dispatched? Anyway, +1 what RudeBeast said, but at the same time I will have no truck with people who are so blatantly taking the piss out of others who got them where they are. And I'm surprised to see that there are still people here willing to bend over and say: "Please Sir, can I have some more?" I'm ready for my slap now. "His blood/alcohol level ... " " ... It's over 9000!"
I know I was glossing over Alice's true and deeper feelings, I just didn't feel that the posts in question were helping get it across. Now that Alice seems to be in usual form, I will return to enjoying his shenanigans and this thread. Pterodactyl Axe!
I thought it was a goose or a swan. Pterodactyl would be quite cool though! Either way, that weapon shot interests me a lot more than the first one.
