Now I have heard everything. I hope for society's sake he is joking.

Teddy Long Criticizes Mattel For Making His Figure A ‘Build-A-Figure’ Item

Mattel’s doing something and I consider it as just racist. You gotta’ buy somebody’s doll and then you may find my head in it. Then you gotta’ go buy another guy’s doll and my waistline may be in that. So they got different parts of me in different people’s action figures. You know what I mean, so come on man.

I'm sorry if I'm being ignorant but isn't being the baf a compliment? It's like a chase figure?

@asterstar yes but from what I gather, he is just upset they didn’t make a carded figure of him bc he was told no one would buy it. No need to bring race in to it

It should not be a far leap to assume figures of referees would be less popular.

He doesn't realize the baf is usually the most valuable piece when assembled.
