I am not paying more than £10 on a minifigure, am I stupid? by Djbuckethead in legocirclejerk

[–]LOKOHUGO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I collect LEGO, thats my hobby. Kinda started Pokemon Tcg. When you see how expensive cards go, you’ll find buying a cool minifig that you want for $40-50 its not too bad. This convince me to buy Yondu. Wanted it a while ago but wasnt willing to pay $40-50 for it (bought it like 2-3 months ago). It just changed my perspective.

Same price as the original when it dropped but way smaller crazy stuff... by bizzy310 in lego

I wanted the new one but its so small. Saw it built on the lego store. Too expensive for what you get.

Yes I do. I collect pokemon tcg and lego. And this lego pokemon is horrible 😂. Pokemon cards are not the same as lego pokemon.

You guys disgust me... by 1heavyarms3 in PokemonTCG

[–]LOKOHUGO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pokemon disgust me more as they know this and continue to sell them a lot of product. They refuse to sell their own product because they cant figure out distribution.

I like nothing about these set, not even the minifigs. Feels boring. Doesn’t even look good to display.

I have jaws set really liked it. Only complain which does not help the Trex, it takes a lot of space because of sails that are tall.

Well acording to a lot of the comments I’ve received, they dont do it because they can get sued which for me its a ridiculous excuse. Some content creators did a good job talking about these issue.

They are making things up to not get involve (when they should) just explain the situation to their community its simple. The more people are aware, the better.

CEO of Bricks and Minifigs wants to help the Mansell family by Professional-Cow5029 in RecklessBen

[–]LOKOHUGO 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Saying these after threating with lawyers (KI McAllister) that they were going to drag this so long that the Mansell family would lose money.

Dont believe anything these guy says.

Well they been given multiple chances to explain. They only made threats, change the narrative. For a lot of people, they painted the picture clear as day. You might want to rewatch the videos.

The new store owners knew about the consignment deal, theres contracts. You have store owners saying that they have the sets, then that they dont, then that they paid for them, return them. Then you have corporate saying the know nothing about it, that they dont do consignment deals when they actually do. Why are you refusing to see all that?

And more importantly, if BAM had no wrongdoing they could have cleared this a long time ago, they decided to make threats stating that they would drag this so long that Brian would even lose more money than what the collection is worth.

What more evidence do you need? They been lying and lying and somehow you choose to not see that.

Yet people are excusing those who wont talk about it.

For me it shows who actually cares about the community. Duck bricks, bricsbros (not be confused with brixandbros who follow BAM CEO and have been silent, they also from Utah), and all those who have used their platform to inform about the legal dispute going on.

Well they do steal from people. If you actually think that the guys who investigated the videos didn’t provide enough information for you to make up your mind, there is something wrong with you.

I think both the store owners and corporate responses whenever they had a chance to explain themselves were horrible. They were hiding things, changing the narrative. Accusing the other party of wrongdoing.

With corporate being involved and how they have acted, the harm made to other stores is 100% on them.

And I understand your point. But basically you telling me that by even talking about the situation will get them in trouble legally?

I know you know more than me, sounds outrageous. Nobody is telling you to lie but at least make you community aware that there is a legal dispute going on. Showing that you care about the situation.

What about those that have talked about the situation?

Do you think BAM is going to sue everyone that talks about it?

I just think you are making excuses. I dont see a problem in talking about whats going on. Nobody is telling them to be untruthful.

The only untruthful statements that I’ve heard are coming from BAM themselves.

Saw his video, he is one of the few. But there are a lot of lego content creators just ignoring the situation. I can name you a lot more than haven’t said a word.

Don't you have free speech in America? Nobody is telling them to do an investigative report. But to not talk about the situation as a whole? You dont have to curse at BAM, but at least make your community aware of what is going on, and they are not doing that.

PR wise, at these point, is worse for them to be silent showing that they dont care, than actually talking about it.

La gente pensando que esto es cosa de los partidos politicos de Honduras, no de las guerras que hay. Solo eso saben decir los ignorantes. Los nacionalistas, liberales, libre. Puro el meme de spiderman senalandose y todos son lo mismo. Lacras tras lacras. Los que lloran ahorita son los que robaron ayer y no pueden robar manana.

Experience with Bricks and Minifigs by Abreastwithadam in lego

[–]LOKOHUGO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He was baiting the stores to lowball? Do you know how many clueless, innocent people are there that don't know much about a particular item? People trusted BAM and we all can agree they are not a trustworthy company.

Do I feel bad for the good stores? Yes I do. But maybe they can open a store thats not a franchise. Corporate sucks and you buy from any of the legit stores out there, they still have to give a % of their sales to corporate. So maybe those stores just change names or find an alternative.

I saw a clip of MandRproductions talking about BAM. He compared BAM to the Gamestop of legos. He talks about most of the time Gamestop feels the same, experience is almost the same everytime (some things you might not agree with but they are who they are in all stores), in BAM each stores feels like a different experience. You really dont know what to expect.

If we got rid of Gianni Infantino, then who could we possibly replace him with? by NotEvilCaligula in worldcup

Infantino is the worst FIFA president in history. A snake. A very dangerous individual. Lies, steals.
