Ok...
Here's my bitchy whiney letter to F4F:
Hello, I'm writing you today because I'm uspset that you made an awesome
Sonic 20th anniversary statue that I'm unable to add to my collection.
Why would you make an incredible statue only to torture your customers by
only "giving away" only a few.... Knowing they'll only be resold to people
with lots of money.(which is NOT me)
Right now I've seen one on eBay for 2,000.00! I cannot afford that. This is
stupid. As a business in this terrible economy, You should be making
products that people will want to buy, not have to fight for on eBay.
After having so much trouble getting my damaged Super Sonic replaced, I was
iffy about buying any more statues, and I fell behind on getting Metal
Sonic, as well as Knuckles and Tails coming soon.
I really want this Sonic statue for my collection, Am I basically screwed
for not being rich?
Please let me know, and Please do not do this again, as you are only hurting
your customers.
Thank You.. Barry Evans
And F4F Response...
Hi Barry,
Thanks for your email. I understand your concern, but please note that this
is not our statue to sell. We made this direct for SEGA as a celebration of
the 20th Anniversary - it was their decision to only give them away.
We do plan on giving one away in our forums once we've got enough people to
set up a competition so be sure to register there you haven't done so yet -

Oh, well.........
Nothing more to say...
I guess the real answer they meant is "T.S."
