That's it: i'm done with Excalibur!!!

[Shabby J]

That's the problem with a lot of people, they want instant gratification, nothing is worth waiting for anymore to anyone!

Get beyond the shelfishness and look towards the future.

Look for the big picture, it's right in front of you, but most people fail to see it.

I totally agree with you Shaby J!
They don't realize that we are a small minority in the scope of Excalibur's Vibrating Football sales. They completely sold out of their boards on their last production run (Holiday Seasons 2007). We don't have enough people on this forum to buy them out over a year, let alone 2 months. Look at the BIG PICTURE...you have to crawl before you can walk. We're fortunate that they are even acknowledging us. How many of you can say that you would not take the money and run (same old product, but new $ every Holiday Season). It looks like the same old EF/MF frame of mind to me...bash it, ban it, complain about it. I will remain to be patient, and purchase what I need from the current manufacturers. As Shabby J said, Excalibur's QB's are great, they do not break at the ankle, figures are great, and the bases are workable. I just don't understand how one can be disgusted with a company that is actually ahead in the game, when looking at how long it took Miggle to get to the point of producing stamped helmet NFL teams. Miggle still hasn't produced a decent game board...how long has it been? If Excalibur comes out with a great product, then it will just be the gravy on top of what we already have.

OK but this company must have to be honnest with their customer if they want to keep the business. Let me ask you a question. If at the beginning, Excalibur was honnest with us and told us that this would be much longer than anticipated, then i'll understand but you can't pushed back again & again & again, do you think that peoples will still upset against them?

You and Shabby J have some good points but i'm still upset against Excalibur. Is not that i'll never buy some MF item from them (you're right about the QB. they're solid and great!!) but they ahve to shown some respect and stop to pushed back until 2025 to make theses things done

I hear you Ben. My question to you is...who have you spoken with??? Are you taking the word of the min wage idiots in customer service, or do you have word from a higher authority? I overstand your frustration in anticipation of new products...I just feel that blasting, or voicing a negative opinion on a public forum ("I'm done with Excalibur") could possibly detour larger manufacturers from dealing with a specialty group of hobbiest like us. It is easy to produce ef/mf crap, and make $. I would like for a company to eventually take interest in what we doing, and step up to the plate and make the products we have been craving for years.

Ben,

Give Excalibur time to show what they can do. If they are about the business of getting things done, they will come through. If not, that is an indicator that they weren’t worthy to begin with. If Excalibur is successful, fine. I will support them. If they are not, it’s fine by me. As I said before, I am not worried about when they launch their products because we have the resources here among us already. So chill!

Hang in there Ben. We've got plenty other products to choose from until Excalibur gets their act together. Patience my friend!

Hey lets face it, anyone who is really into this paints and details their own figures anyway.The stuff that companies mass produce is shoddy at best.
So big deal the helmet is stamped..how about the rest of the details? Lines not straight, paint smuged,flashing not removed from figure, lack of detail in mold,heck you could come up with a bunch of reasons why the massed produced pre painted players are not worth buying.Get in the game...start painting and see how fast you are creating beautiful life like detailed players and teams,once you get the hang of it you'll be hooked.Now for those who just can't paint or don't have the time, buy them already painted and detailed from the guys on the site,yeah they cost more but they are worth having if your into the game and hobby.
You can order some great looking unpainted figures from Buzzball,Football Figures.com and of course Miggle plus several others so get into it and quit worrying about companies who could care less about your business
If want to play like the best make sure your teams look the best
START PAINTING!

Comrads:

These guys are novices to the sport. Let's forward our questions and concerns to them, give them time to respond, and take it from there.

Hey, Miggle doesn't have the license anymore. These are the new guys on the block. Let's try and work with them.

At least, that is the attitude that I am taking.

Carpe Diem,

Well, I would like to be positive about excalibur but I honestly don't think they are interested in ef or vibrating football. They had a go at it but probably realize that the big market just is not there. The future of the market are the kids. Do they buy the vibrating football game in large number ? I'm not sure.

People you guys are like sheep to be lead anywhere!!That stuff was junk!!If they were serious what experts did they consult??All the experts are here!!!The true gamers!!They put out a product that cost them about 250.000 to make if not more they had to give the NFl 15% of thier sales and the fee for the liscense they barely made any selling out only means what they put in the stores sold did they make enough who knows??Most coaches dont play with store bought men any more thats why Miggle didnt renew its deal!!I mean come on guys really!!
