I see he's caused quite a stir declaring MOTU Origins and Masterverse are dead. He claims retailers were notified of this in October. Other YT hosts have come out swinging that he's spreading misinformation.
Since it sounds like this is either totally, or at the very least largely BS, what does this guy have to gain from this? Is he so hell-bent on making waves he's willing to completely erode what little credibility he has left in the industry and fandom? Does he have that huge of an axe to grind against Mattel for no longer being their brand manager he's willing to destroy his own personal cred to take them down with him? I find it utterly baffling, and strangely fascinating.
There's way too much ire and vitriol in toy collecting nowadays, but when someone who brands themself an "expert", and actually once had a position to back that claim up, goes around and spreads misinformation as fact...well, I kind of get the rage.
