Only a few of the Obi heads were ever popular. But just in the beginning, not so much now. Nobody wanted the weapons. The BBI items were the most popular before I added the Acid Rain parts.
Any chance that somebody will get the modern warfare and F118th heads? Angel Forge since they collaborated on the F118th figs??

Well...you were awesome to offer what you had in inventory!!!
Ironically, I was about to ask for a bunch of BBi HKs, mk46s, and vests, acid rain stuff and some newer BBi helmets and your assortmwnt of helo helmets (especially your SOAR and apache ones). I even made a power point so I wouldn't confuse myself...hahaha.
I'm always late to the game. LOL.
Hopefully you at least cast for yourself and show off some cool customs!
Cheers!

Yeah, I think I get an order once every 2 months. I think very little product from GI Joe has effected things.
At Con, I think I sold 40 heads? I went with 300.

Yeah, that has a lot to do with it for sure. Also, the mtf figures and accessories are a higher priority for people now. Factory painted accessories that are the same price or less than cast pieces aren't helping any either.
Time to get back into customizing figures.
I hate it that you're not for making head casts and gear, but I completely understand. The stuff I got from you was really great, almost finished with a custom using some of the parts I got from you.
I will great to see some new custom from you, they are top notch.
Has the Jesse thing been confirmed or just "no shit" obvious speculation?
I've been extremely patient with him but he's given me the runaround for over 18 months and I paid him a decent chunk of money AND he has parts I sent him, one set that cost me $100+ to acquire. Fogger finally got his parts but I'm not so optimistic on my end.
Well Jesse did say back in I think it was around April/May that he was getting a regular job again, and pulling way back on casting. He also said something about wanting to change gears to do more 6" stuff instead of 4". He even gave me permission to copy some heads I got from him which I'm starting to work my way through.
Oh, I've been in on-again-off-again contact with him. Via FB and his cell number. He's just not responded to the last 15 or so messages, even though he's told me he's shipped or going to ship "this weekend" about 45 times now. I even got a tracking number once!
I've been extremely patient, other than politely asking him every few weeks what the deal is, but come the fuck on.
It sucks that it's so easy for only a few to ruin it for the rest. Hisstank adopted a no cast sales policy thanks to a couple bad apples. I had a guy contact me about molding and casting some stuff for him because 3 other castors he had hired burned him. I guess it's easier to take the money and disappear than honor the agreement. There's soooooooo many stories out there about people getting screwed over by castors that it's almost expected. It sure makes it hard for the honest ones.
