cgi.ebay.com/Batman-Begins-Custom-Figure-With-Batman-Car_W0QQitemZ6041296378QQcategoryZ2480QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItemHe is at it again. I am so scared by this guy. Is he mental?? I don't care if I am considered judgemental but what the heck is this guy thinking. Does he not look at the level of other Batman customs on eBay or in a shop or whatever. Madness. It is kinda like 'Batman Custom Idol' and this guy is like the most mad fella you could ever imagine who doesn't understand why Simon Callow, flanked by Will and Kevin, are asking him to be escorted from eBay by security! The audacity of the guy to think people would wanna buy this stuff is almost brilliant. Maybe we should invite him aboard. There is stuff we have seen here done by kids of ten which tops this guys stuff. If he were a genuine fella who really tried but just had no skill I would say nothing but this guy arrogantly thinks people will want to buy this stuff. I am rocked!

Like I say if this was posted by one of you guys and said it was done by your son or nephew or whatever I would give it top marks. However this is clearly a grown man apparently with a level head looking to sell it to another person. I love the fact that he keeps making the point that it is in no way endorsed by DC Comics or Warner Bros...... like just in case we thought it was!!!!!!

WHAT IN GOD'S NAME?!
Okay, I was trying my best to hold my tongue on the Bat stuff, but what is that Star Wars thing? Like Batlaw said, if this was a ten-year-old's work, I'd encourage his creativity, but this ain't some kid. Geez, what won't he slap together from junk?

Good Lord! Somebody get the hook! This guy needs to be pulled!
Somehow, I am sad for him. But I cannot look at his stuff anymore. You said it Mart, if it was a kid's work, different ball game.
Sad. He thinks he's making cool stuff. Maybe he doesn't have kids and is just doing this? I dunno...I can't put reason to it.
It would have been great in 1935... ;D

First of all I bust a gut laughing at this picture.
But I popped over to the eBay auction and frankly I'm not sure this isn't a kid. The text reads like a kid trying to sound professional. Kids have accounts on eBay, or know how to use their parent's believe me- I have had conversations with troubled parents over this from things I've sold that were "bought" by children unbeknownst to the harried mom and dad.
Also, kids really often don't see the quality of their work as poor if they feel they have made an effort and included every detail. In their minds it's good.
I say it is a ten year old with a lot of ambition and a very weak eye for self-criticism. His friends probably all agree that he did a gret job too.

He has been trading on eBay since 1999. I honestly don't think it is a kid. If the 'child using adult account' theory is anything to go by I doubt any parent would have an account name KARNAGE despite there being some pretty whacky eBay monickers flying around. This seems like KARNAGE kinda guy I think! Funny thing is is that he has a Joker on at the moment which, maybe not to everyone's tastes, ain't that bad. Let's just face facts...he is mental!!!!!
