Ozmasters, The MOTU General Discussion Thread.

Scott's answers are great...

I guess I don't get crddit for making Photog and Keldor's swords happen?

There he goes again! The fans have just saved his @ss (and his job, probably) and this is one of his first responses.

And how about this dismissive answer to a legitimate question...

It looks like you've announced the winner but I still have the pdf of the vote information and double checked... According to it, people have until 11:59 tonight to vote.

Is there some reason the poll was closed early?

The winner is Geldor.

Talk about not answering the question. And now even acknowledging they SCREWED up! Man, if I was a Subber who bought on the last day I would be so angry! What a sh!tty response that is!

It took another post to get him to actually answer the question...

It was supposed to close on the 6th. Noting the closing on the 8th was a mistake I missed when proofing the copy. It was always supposed to close when sales closed. I made a mistake.

There's proof for all those Org Scott devotees... he does have "The Power" And then, his response to a customer saying it's disrespectful and probably illegal...

Yeah, I hear you, and there are arguments on both sides. but at this point since we already announced Geldor we are going forward with him as the winner.

Translation: "Yeah I hear you... I'm just not listening! Pretty cool huh?"

And now on to MORE vehicles in MOTUC (which, I'd just like to say - we're clearly not getting any more), Scott fumbles around his contradictory answers...

At this point, the best way to support more vehicles is to buy a Windraider.

Freezing...

Lets sell more Windraiders before we consider a second vehicle. So far we still have plenty of WR stock.

Cold...

Alas, a vehicle takes way more work and with WR sales being so low we just can't get the resources to do another, even as a presale.

Getting warm...

We would love to do another full vehicle but with 2013 sales just a smidge over the BARE MINIMUM and the Windraider sales where they are, it makes it a lot harder to go to management and ask for these type of resoruces.

We really needed the WR to perform better to justify more vehicles. We can only make toys if their is an audience to buy them.

Warmer...

WR sales so low it is jut not a resource we can get right now.

BINGO! The truth!

Imagine how much time he would save himself (and us) if he just got straight to the point and told the truth at the start. There would be no broken promises or contradictions. Just - the answers! But he just can't seem to help himself; he's either a BS artist or he's too scared to tell people for fear of inciting the wrath of geeks.

Edit: I found this gem...

Dear Toy Guru, I have been trying to order subs for the motuc line for the last 48 hours (before it closed) but kept getting this error code when trying to add to cart . Error 2151021077 is an invalid value for m. I am based in the UK but I doubt this should make a difference. I have contacted customer service but with no reply. Please can you help as I like many others am committed to keeping this great line going.

Please help and I look forward to hearing from you.

Just call customer service and they can help you out

Bwahahahahaha Thanks for the helpful answer
