yeah I came off kind of harsh I suppose. Had alot of coffee today Fp's facebook is blowing up with people asking for and downright demanding a list of who is actually going to get one. I guess the majority who donated already just want their toy, screw the cause it was for.

If there's any justice in the world, the ones demanding a list won't be rewarded for their selfishness. Really grinds my gears.

Yeah, demanding a list is wrong. Very wrong! I'm not going to demand anything, just quietly hope I actually get one of these little guys. AAAALLLTTHHOOUUGGHH.......IF these demanding individuals do get their way, and a list is posted...would you please post a link?

I will admit that I want to know if I'm on the list or not. (I think I am)

I'm not going to harass FanProject about it. No need to do that. It seems to me that they are on track with getting everything ready so I'm not worried. As long as they live up to what they promise then I'm not bothered.

Oh, don't get me wrong... I'm not saying if you want one, you shouldn't express it. What I am saying, is the act of posting that expression on the FansProject FB page is a douche nozzle spray move. I mean, FansProject aren't even full time toy makers, let alone a distributor of toys. We're talking around 1500 people on whom to cater. And guess who's left with the bill to ship - on top of career and personal oriented stresses - the disaster itself comes to mind - which must be said is far faaaaaaaaaaar from over. I'm sure there's a reason why they don't post a line-up of donations - a glaring one being, that there may be a few that really don't want the attention. Honestly, I want one, I'm selfish - but please, for the sake of personal honor, don't let them feel the pressure of our greed or desires. Doing so would turn a truly EPIC and SELFLESS event into the manifestation of the downfall of mankind.

off soapbox-

Those who don't wish to be known were catered to in that you could express whether you wanted to be acknowledged or not.

Point taken; proceed to post what you want - where you please.

That's very gracious of you. I forgot about the "remaining anonymous" thing. SSOOOOO..... everybody wanna hop on the nearest bandwagon and cruise over to FP's Facebook page and demand with authority that the qualifiers be named immediately?

Hey, wait, come on guys! Where are you goin? The bandwagon is THIS way!

Guys?

I never knew this was happening. Very cool. I've given heaps of money too Japan through Red Cross. Every time i buy a case of beer i donate 5 bucks to the cause. In Canada here....well...in my town. The liquor stores ask you if you want to donate with every purchase. 2 bucks, 5 bucks or 10.

I drink a good amount of beer. Maybe i'll give this a go but it sounds like a pain in the ass. I HATE FILLING OUT FORMS.

On second thought......i'll just keep buying beer. Free figure is tempting though.

They've already given them all away so you can stick to your beer.

They gave them all out in under 3 days and now we're waiting for the lucky jerks who got them.

I received a thank you email from FansProject the morning they started this and that's the only acknowledgment I need from them. Since I was one of the first to donate, I have no doubt that I will get one. But even if I don't, they won't hear one peep out of me.

Same here..if I get it , great..If not.. I know my donation helped someone whjo doesnt have a house anymore..fair trade if you ask me..


I'm wondering who the first asshole is going to be to put 1 up on ebay...

I'll be that guy...

And I'll keep all the money to myself, maybe pile it up and burn it in front of a homeless dude. Maybe I'll use a crack whore with it, then steal the money back from her. And laugh my malicious cackle into the echoes of... on second thought, maybe I'd keep the toy.

And you're sellers fee will kill you. Seriously, that would massively backfire on you.

It was more meant as a smart remark than anything else.

Nope. I'm going to be mailing it in a very nice box that will be surrounded by tons of foam and then put into a ridiculously large crate. I will be placing shipping at $500

Scalping at it's finest.

I knew you were kidding but I seen enough joke auctions (and joke bids) backfire before that I felt the need to cry wolf so to speak.
