I've been following this story of a lot as well the amount of scumbaggery from this company is just insane stealing over $200,000 in Legos from an old man is just pure evil.

And here's the thing about me personally normally I'm fully in support of the police but even I realize the amount of corruption that's going on that it's just making them look so bad.

The blatant lies and overall dismissal of the legit situation here is pretty much going to ruin Brits and minifigs and the folk county Police department.

It reminds me of the situation when keokuken Star sold a conversion of a neo game here as an original cartridge and then when called out on it he got angry and refused to give the money back for the cartridge and pretty much vanished from the forms in the internet because of the embarrassment of realizing that he got caught selling a bootleg as an original product.

FU for making me aware of this damn story.

Spoiler:

For real man.

Even with that kid who narrates the whole thing talking like a fucking 13 year old retard, Im like SHIT MAN WHAT HAPPENED NEXT

That's one way of looking at it Big Bear was especially hard on him because of the situation he pretty much crashed out harder than anyone I remember over the fact when he got caught selling a bootleg project as an original and then try to use his father as a form of blame saying that he's dad was the one that sold the cartridge and didn't know the difference as the as of that was an excuse.

Also there's a YouTube channel called bam sucks I believe someone hacked the police servers over in Polk county and got a hold of the protected body cam footage from the police I watched the whole thing and honestly it's pretty fucking damning.



The police are really screwed right now because of this situation everything is out in the open and they have blatantly lied about a lot of stuff I have never seen such a level of corruption like this in years.

Never heard of Reckless Ben before this but the overall case seems to be everywhere. Director/animator Joel Haver just did a video with the guy where they mention being neighbors. Youtube is an odd little world.

I hate Legos, they're like Adult Disney Fans to me. I'm not reading any of this shit. I've seen posts about it online and couldn't scroll fast enough.

Oh, AND I hate YT "personalities"

The only Legos I actually like and have bought over the years are the technique sets. I was never a fan of the little minifigures.

So an update this late the bricks and minifigs company actually wrote out an apology of sorts and are willing to work with the original owner of the Legos to get him paid it's a shame that it came to this and they're throwing the original store owners Brian and Josh under the bus for this and they're also blaming the previous owners saying they've never done consignments which is obviously a lie and they have.

I know more about this case than I ever wished. They've already pulled a similar stunt then reneged after they thought they got Bryan to retract his negative remarks towards Bricks and Minifigs. They got his "retraction" statement and then strung him along until finally saying fuck you. I trust Mormons as much as I trust MSL's lack of association with Chasyn Rance.

The mormons actually have their own line of knock off lego's and they legitimately called it: Brick'Em Young
They named it after Joseph Smith, where he bricked a lot of em underage girls before he was killed.
