if you mean KIDBASH who made the roadbuster kit for captain america then no it isnt him who was making these. I asked him personally when the idea was first shown up and he said no way would he take on somert like that as the roadbuster kit was difficult enough

Then again i never trusted kidbash, paid him for the roadbuster kit and never recived it, said he sent out a replacement twice yet those also never arrived. Had to make a paypal claim in the end

Kitbasher as in a person who kitbashes, which is the act of customising figures.
you know, like our Kitbash forum.

I think he means a user called "Kidbash" not someone who kitbashes. And the only garage made Roadbuster set I know of was the one by Natobot and it was awesome. The only thing failing about that Roadbuster was the Deluxe size of the base figure. Hasbro's repaint department fail, not upgrade fail. I did order a Roadbuster head that was designed for the Cap Hummer but that was off of Shapeways. I was going to use it on U2.0 Onslaught and just never finished it.

I would love to be able to help him out with this, and hopefully help to allow him to keep as much of his collection as he can.

Anyone, please, before he's lost his entire collection?

here is where I sent my payment for a couple of his figures... registrations@slagacon.com

Awesome, thanks !

edit: Donation sent .

It showed the name as Kristen Williams for that email address, but I made sure to put a note stating what the donation was for (to help Chad to conserve his collection) so I'm sure they'll do the right thing with the fundage I sent.

I believe Kristen is his wife, she helps to run the convention...she usually is at the door taking your money

as for the customizer, TPANG might be the name...or something like that. Whatever reasons he has its no secret he bit off more than he could chew but instead of accepting that and returning the money, he strung Chad and everyone else along. And that deserves no respect.

Yea, since you revealed his name, yes it's him, though he spells himself TGping.

again its NOT kidbash/aka tping who was trying to mass release the figure

he was working with chad to help make the prototype originally

the person who screwed chad over was someone else/some other factory or what have you

No, the thing was being made and produced by them, and based on this they actually made a few casts of the kit:

Also, if you cyberstalk the guy or click my google link, you'll notice that he stopped communication with anyone a few months ago, around the time we last heard of this kit.
Adding to that, but the guy who was supposedly helping TGping with casting it, this yourreflection guy, has a site, which is now offline.
http://www.facebook.com/pages/kidbash/1 ... 022?ref=ts
And as you can see his facebook is dead too.

So yea, these guys "produced" the kit, they both stopped communicating at around the same time so yes these guys are the ones who ripped Chad off.

Hehe, excellent, thanks .

For anyone interested in making a donation in support of Chad Williams, Founder and CEO of Slagaconcan send those gifts to registration@slagacon.comvia PayPal.com. Chad informed me directly that any charity would better benefit the fans by supporting Slagacon. Anyone who donates will be listed as a supporter in the front cover of the Slagacon Comic book. Chad also added:

wait a second....so is the money we donate going to help CHAD keep his collection or is he going to throw it away on some usless charity?

If i donate anything to chad i want it to be FOR chad to help him get outa the mess hes in. Not to throw it away on some usless charity
