Here is a portion of what I have received just in the last few weeks for casting.

also something I got to cast for toy designer Joe Amaro. It's a Mystic Hammer for the MOTU Tytus figure. Plus I am working on another project for him.

Great news!
Hmm, will 6 pcs be too many to ask for?
In case I have not said anything to this effect before: thanks a lot for doing the modding and, of course, I'm not going to throw dirt at you when you offer it to everybody else on your website.

Maybe you want to consider changeing your phone number. Then his stalking will be over. Or if you can see who's calling, take a whistle and blow it into the horn.

I still getting flak for that vast I cast from you. He's telling people that I bought it from him and recast his shit.


Hey that mod I'm doing for you is going to be sick.

Jesse, tell him this guy Ridgeback from 1:18th sent it to you and if he doesn't buy it, he should get his ass here and contact me.
I sent you the vest and I have no problem telling him that.

Bet the modded vest will be a killer.

Oh, if you like, I'm ready to postb this where everybody can see it. Maybe the asshat will then get off your back:


Declaration of guilt:

Looking forward to the modded Shocktrooper vest that Jesse is doing for me. It will sport a rack of mag pouches on the front and a hydration system on the back.
Totally badass, true and tactical.

Oh, BTW: It was me who sent the master piece of the wearable Reactive Impact Armor vest to Jesse for casting. I got it from a Chinese Ebay seller along with other parts from the prototype Duke in training gear figure. Bought the lot for the friggin’ vest alone, because I didn’t want to go through the hassle of ordering from Broken Arrow again and having to wait forever and three days before I'd get my stuff.

Maybe the person who had his feelings hurt can now do everybody a favor and get off Jesse’s back. The time he spends bitching and moaning is probably better invested taking care of his customers and getting their orders done.

Man, you'd think Aly would just get over it by now. He's outclassed and outcasted by a far better person. TJ's got the support of so many people in the community, and the guy can't stand seeing someone else succeed where he has so many failings.

Aly-o, Aly-o, Alyosha can eat a big, fat dick.

That guy is unreal. He has other people call me. Last night I just to them to tell that fat fuck to stop contacting me, if he put as much time telling me what to do and take care of his shit maybe he could get stuff shipped. He's trying to get guys to stop sending stuff to me for casting.

He can go suck a bag of dicks!

Won't work.
You've got the support of some Major League customizers.

Hey, if you think it will help, I'll post the lines over at HT so his main reason to throw shit at you is blown out of the water.

Thanks RB but I don't want to get banned in HT. That dude is just scared cause someone else is offering volume of different stuff and I'm sure I'm hurting him. What does he expect? He doesn't deliver, turnaround is way to slow, he's a douche, and his shit is way over priced. He makes customizing not fun and guess what there's someone else now that's willing step up and people have choices now.

I'm sure he's running scared. From what I hear his store is closed half the time anyway.

Aly needs to be more concerned with getting orders out in a reasonable time-frame. If he had been doing that all along, he wouldn't be in the position that he is now. If it's your cell that he's calling, you can have your carrier block his number from being able to call you. You can do that with the other losers he has calling you to.

That sound you here is Alyosha's death throes. The beast is thrashing around, unaware that it's already dead.

I think you *should* have Ridgeback post his declaration somewhere. Then I can follow it up with a post saying "And even if Jesse *had* cast this piece from one of Alyosha's casts, so the fuck what? It's not a proprietary item, it's a Hasbro mass market item that anyone can buy on eBay. But you can tell it's not cast from an Alyosha vest, because A) it exists, you're not still waiting for it, and B) it hasn't lost any detail from the original."

Yessir, that guy can suck a Costco-sized bag of discount dicks.

Hi,
Thank you, my order came today!
Good quality casts too, wow.
I was worried, cuz the last time I ordered anything was from Slayer design and it took 8 months of bullshit to get here. You have earned my trust, I thank you and I will spread the good word about you.
I will definitely order again,
Cheers!

I get emails like this everyday. I never bought from them or BA but can they or where they really that bad?

You should put up a "Feedback" section on your site where you post emails like this from customers. I think it would be a cool way to recognize your customers and give new ppl a chance to see some feedback.

Broken Arrow takes forever and he bitches at you if you send emails asking where it is after his 6-10 week time frame.

SDS, while they had wonderful work, it went downhill the worse Dave's health problems got. Some people haven't gotten anything even though they ordered prior to the new year. It's a shame, because he really should have handed off the outstanding orders to people who were leasing from him.

I won't smear Dave's name, he's a nice guy. Alyosha, he's a dick. :)

That is great idea. I am going to look in to it. As for Alyosha, I can say I do not like him at all and next Joecon I am going to introduce myself to him. I need to start a bail bond fund just in case. I really don't say to much about it cause I try to stay focused on what I am doing but that dude has had people call me in the middle of the night and tell me I can't cast certain items cause he does. WHATEVER! He says I need his permission and I need to respect him.

Shows what a dick Alyosha is.
Respect is earned, not demanded.

BA Toys - Yes.
Slayer - Started off good, but Dave got in over his head and then his health has complicated things even more. Regardless of his health issues, he should have at least refunded people's money if he wasn't able to get orders out in a timely manner. There really is no excuse for taking people's money and not providing a product they paid for.
