I'm with Rare Hero on this one. So many potential great themes that could have been chosen by a new company. This isn't one of them (for me).

Quoted from Homepin:

I have almost decided that I will not make this machine available to the USA market. I may not even include an option for 110V.
The USA was never an intended market. There are 200 other countries..............
Have fun in the USA living in your sheltered world.
I'm busy now - taking the "post to the USA" option off my website for boards I make because I don't think I will sell them to anyone in the US anymore - ByeBye.
Yes, I am taking my bat and ball and going home (if any of you actually understand that).

For a business owner, this is pathetic. Truly.

You may want to take a course in Marketing 101 if you want to have even an iota of a chance of succeeding in your new business.

Quoted from DCfoodfreak:

Seriously why would anyone give a dime to a company that is obviously run by an idiot. To decide not to sell to potential buyers based on what a non buyer says is literally stupid. There is no way that this person can run a viable company .

Correct.

Quoted from o-din:

I'll just drive to Mexico to pick up mine.

I wouldn't drive a block to buy anything from this boob.

Quoted from o-din:

I kind of like the guy's attitude. We have all had groups of people we would rather not deal with. Including you and him.

Groups of people being all of North America?

Yeah, his attitude is great!

Quoted from o-din:

Unlike WoZ, at least we know when to expect our Thunderbirds.

Now that's funny!

Quoted from PW79:

Yay another preorder to argue about for the next 3 years

Nope. Ain't nobody going to be arguing about this one. Unlike some of the others, this one will actually bring Pinsider's together!

Quoted from sd_tom:

o, yeah he probably realized he overreacted.. prob cause everyone was shitting on the Thunderbirds pin. How would the Predator guys of handled themselves if everyone here said it was a horrible idea.

I'm guessing that they would have went with another theme?

I doubt that they would have said F you stupid North Americans, we aren't going to sell to you!
