So happy that I have canceled my order long ago, when I realized that Rush is nothing but an amateurish one man (or boy) trip. Sorry for everyone who paid for this garbage. Kind of sad that the Monsters will have the same fate of damnation. I liked the idea alot and the 3D renderings look great.

Think it’s a lesson learned from collectors point of view too, if these were not for pre-order and you could just purchase them in stock then we will not be in this position. We need to stop finding these business to get off the ground in my opinion. We are not the bank exactly my point - we're the customer, we're the ones who should receive goods worth the value we're paying I have zero interest in buying a future Rush figure, and my experience with G+G has put me off them too. until either company completes their final production run of figures, and we've seen the finished item and it's in stock for immediate shipping to customers, I ain't bothering to preorder from either of them. there's zero comeback for the customer at this stage, so these cowboys need to take the risk themselves and put out a product that people actually want to buy.
Now, I'm not saying what Rush, G+G and these other 1-man companies do is correct. However these small 1-man companies have less influence in chinese production plants than mega corporations do... Even the mega corporations seriously mess up on crowdfunding projects (why on earth do mega corporations even NEED crowdfunding projects???); remember not so long ago there was this crowdfunding project with a new generation WWE ring (worth around $200) and early bird crowdfunders would even receive an exclusive Ultimate Macho Man worth $30. What happened? Some people did receive a ring without figure, some received the figure without ring and some received the ring with a MOTU figure! Now, people that complained about not getting the figure or getting the MOTU figure were offered a $15 refund because the exclusive Ultimate Macho Man WASN'T available. REMEMBER we're talking about a mega corporation here with a crowdfunding project offering $15 instead of $30! It wasn't until a "bigger" youtube vlogger paid attention to the issue, that a representative of the corporation replied with that the issue was "easily solvable" and the "unavailable" Ultimate Macho Man figures got delivered! |

He’ll start taking accountability once he sees those chargebacks, which he deserves. |

Not sure what to do if he doesn't ship them? There has to be some accountability from him? |

Maybe he hasn’t shipped yet because he has been fulfilling third party orders/distributors (his biggest customers)?
Also, for my friends here who are waiting: did you order anything else that would have delayed your order?

Also, for my friends here who are waiting: did you order anything else that would have delayed your order? I only ordered larry and roadblock. I understand he has a full time job in addition to this but he's had people's money for 14 months now. He shouldn't have gotten into this if he can't handle shipping these in a timely fashion. It's beyond ridiculous now. The part that annoys me the most is he won't even reply. If he'd just say hey man doing the best i can, will get your order out in the next couple weeks. I'd be fine with that. Just want the peace of mind knowing I'll be getting what i paid for even though the quality is terrible and the prototypes were way better. Worried that at this point he might fold and keep everyone's money |

It doesn’t look like there is much other explanation for what is going on but I wanted to at least explore other possibilities to see if there was a commonality. |

For what it's worth, I doubt he'll just vanish without getting your crappy figures to you first. It seems like he wants to stick around. I'm pretty much deflated as far as these retro figures go. Last one I bought was the blue Hayabusa variant, very happy with it, not been bothered to buy anymore since, though, as they're all overpriced and/or garbage. |

Yeah the rush renders looked way better than the actual product. These are the worst quality retros yet but since i already paid i just want them lol i would have never ordered if i saw the final product. i leave mine on card so i know they won't break on me. The carding is the best part about these figures and even that isn't great lol |

These are awful and Rushs response was just as bad. I'm done with them and won't fund their dreams of a successful company going forward |

The sculpt is still ok to me. I looked at it again with fresh eyes and thought as a toy it did the job. I’m curious what a detailed figure painter could do with it. Again, the skin tone is what helps to give it that blurry look. The right details could salvage it. Your concern makes total sense. It doesn’t look like there is much other explanation for what is going on but I wanted to at least explore other possibilities to see if there was a commonality. Any suggestions on what i can do? I think the time frame has passed for getting credit from my credit card company but there has to be a way to hold him accountable. He can't just disappear with everyone's money I sent you a DM. Hopefully this can be resolved quickly and painlessly. |
