I have seen bits of things stating that Bill from MDT left the forums. I think I missed what happened? Can anyone fill me in.
I hope all is well with Bill. I like him. He seems like a nice guy and the most collector friendly wrestling figure creator yet. He is always straight up and doesn't BS and I appreciate that.
If you are out there Bill. I appreciate all you have done with the line. Glad to have a true fan of the product at the helm.

E39 was shown, and the people were complaining about Sid's head, Stings head, Sid's body, Sting's body and then they decided to question Bill's effort. That's pretty much why he pulled the plug on this forum.

In the lack of effort or just plain ignorant (something like that) thread users used it as a platform for personal attacks on bill, so he left

He takes his figures accuracy to heart. |

If that was really the post that caused him to leave, I really don't understand it. Nothing in it was THAT bad or disrespectful to me. To be honest, all a lot of collectors would like is just a few honest answers as to why it seems like quality control has gone down dramatically recently. Considering prices keep going up and we're now spending $19.99 on Elites, I think some of the points raised are valid.

I usually only spend $14.99-$17.99 at the most on elites unless it's a RSC exclusive.

But there was alot of cr@p said about Bill that shouldn't have been. There is a way to voice your displeasure in the product without personally insulting the man. |

While people are A-holes, and entitled to their opinions right or wrong, Bill has to understand that he makes the big bucks to be in the position that he's in. He gets the glory for the good and the heat for the not so good.
He is clearly outstanding at what he does. I personally think it's dumb when people constantly complain over small details such as a torso choice or skin tone. (Except tiny Ryback). That torso is too small! J/k
A person in that position must have thick skin and be able to deal with critique. People are generally too critical these days. I am paid well to put up with much worse than a few complaints over toys. I'm sure Bill makes the really big bucks and should be more concerned with what his bosses think over what people in this forum think.
I hope that Bill makes his return, but he should expect there will still be overly critical people on here regarding his work.

Considering how much negativity there can be on these boards, particularly when new line-ups are announced and when prototype pics are released, I am amazed he stuck around as long as he did.
Let's hope some poor intern gets asked to monitor the boards so at least some of our ideas and suggestions can be read by somebody at Mattel.

I've a feeling this is going to go sour really quick, especially if/when people start pointing fingers...safe to say this is getting locked. Sorry Naparo, this thread's just not gonna end well.
