- The Fans Strike Back - Part 2! Why This Must Be Said.... AGAIN!
Apparently in my last video about The Fans Strike Back, some folks didn’t understand me correctly or have the wrong idea about my true feelings for this toy company. Let me be crystal clear for everyone!

I appreciate you checking out the channel and I look forward to chatting with you about ‘Star Wars’ in the comments below.
And Remember, "Collect or collect not. There is no try."
🚨Blast the SUBSCRIBE Button so you don't miss any future 'Star Wars' content ! ua-cam.com/users/GQJedi 🚨
I feel your pain, GQ. People can be extremely stupid in this community. There are people trying to spread the "conspiracy theory" that I'm a business partner with TFSB and that my videos are all "part of the scam." Exactly how do videos calling out TFSB as a scam artist contribute to a con where somehow I'm also profiting???? People are batsh*t crazy. A lot of us understood exactly what you were saying because our IQs are over 115. And we appreciate you throwing your voice in here to fight back against this awful, awful, awful company. For the record - and I've shown the literal receipts - I BOUGHT the Bantha and 13 figures, so I've lost as much money as anyone else.
- Michael
Michael - I honestly cannot fathom why anyone on this planet would think you of all people, would be promoting TFSB?! You have gone to bat for collectors and have been extremely transparent in all your videos. Yes, some folks are batsh*t crazy as you say. No doubt. Thanks for offering your thoughts! I personally can't stand when good people get dragged thru the muck for no reason. You are a good egg, brother. An asset and a friend to the toy community at large. Always have been. Anyone who says otherwise, can go fly a kite. I've got nothing but the utmost respect for you and your channel. Receipts?! Good grief. That's incredibly sad that you've had to offer up proof of your own horror story in this tale. Yikes. Again, its just baffling to me why anyone out there would think ill of you or your intentions. You've survived and been in this game wayyy longer than I, so I need not impart any advice to you. I'm just a small blip on the radar. But thanks for all you do and I appreciate the chat, good Sir.
@@GQJedi Anytime man. Thanks for being another REAL voice in the toy space on UA-cam. We need 1000 more channels like yours, and if we did, we'd finally have a chance to push out the hype men and the shadow marketers.
Just calling things like they are. I agree with you, it would be nice to see these shady figures disappear from the toy landscape. In the meantime, we gotta keep fighting the good fight, however we can.
Well done GQ Jedi for helping the hobby, and warn Star Wars fans and newbies to the hobby, TFSB have no place in the hobby, and also the trolls have no place, it was so clear that you were warning fans, its sad that people obviously go out their way to cause drama.
I would also say a big, huge sorry for all TFSB customers that got scammed and lost money to this terrible company.
Well done again mate for going out your way to do this video.
Chris (Stan Solo) 👊🏽💥
Just trying to do whatever I can to educate folks out there that love collecting Star Wars toys as much as you and I. People should know what's out there and who they're dealing with. Hopefully videos like this get seen to warn people.
Many thanks to you for doing all that you do for the community. Keep on keeping on, Chris! MTFBWY
The fans are striking back against The Fans Strike Back! They are a bunch of circus clowns! Stan's the man all the way!
Exactly! Well put. A clown enterprise. Absolutely! SS All The Way!
I have also given my money to the 13 figures. Thank you for making this video. Hopefully people will wise up and stop supporting tfsb.
I wish that weren't true. Too many collectors like yourself are coming forth saying this same thing. Horrible to hear. I hope people reject any thought of doing any business with TFSB. Lets...hope!
Last month I bought a repro Stormtrooper blaster from SmithLord Creations on etsy. I didn't take notice that I was buying from them until it was too late. At first I was concerned but then logic settled in... How can they screw up an order for a single repro Stormy blaster. Days passed. First a week, then another, then Christmas. They marked the item as shipped but didn't include tracking which I assumed was because it'd cost more than just tossing it in an envelope and mailing it that way. After Christmas, I sent them a message nicely asking when it would actually be shipped. They claimed it was shipped and that I left feedback which I most certainly did not. This is when I said I should have expected it considering their unflattering reputation. His response was "What reputation would that be? Would that be involving the criminal Chis Smith who has been in prison multiple times!" Mind you I never mentioned Chris Smith nor Stan Solo at all. When I brought that up he replied with "Well you didn't get the blaster and you won't be getting it either. Tell Chis Smith he owes you one!".
I don't use etsy really so I'm not sure where I can go from here but I just wanted to tell you all about my experience with The Crooks Strike Back.
The Crooks Strike Back. You've got that right! So unfortunate what that company has done to so many paying customers. It's sickening. You are but one of many with horror stories like this and much worse.
Thanks for the video. The Fans Strike Back still have my $300. I ordered the 13 figures over three years ago and they did not deliver.
No words, Todd. No words. TFSB should be making license plates not action figures. Sorry to hear you invested in that as well.
@@GQJedi HAHAHAHAHAHA license plates. I agree!
I think part of the problem is there are two custom Star Wars companies and creating some confusion in the marketplace. Stan Solo and the fans strike back look like the same company.
I've explained how the 2 companies came to be before. But TFSB is going under and Stan Solo will remain. SS is legit and provides quality toys for collectors.
Dude I only ran into this channel in the last week and you’re quickly becoming one of my favorite creators. How did these idiots think you supported the Fans Strike Back? That video was perfectly clear on how bad that chunk of junk was. Keep it up and keep speaking your mind I’m here for it.
Hey bud. Welcome to the channel. Appreciate you stopping by and checking out my tiny humble channel. Means a lot. I have no idea how anyone could get things twisted by any of my videos. But I had to clear the air just the same.
Trust me.. if they wanna get back at ya.. They'll send you the Bantha!
Bahahaha!
I first ran into this whole bantha thing because of Michael on Retroblasting. Ironically, I met Chris Krahn at a toy show in Ohio the month before. Lucky for me I did not order anything but I feel for those folks that did. Sorry for all of you that have been duped by that chud.
Yep. Videos were made trying to warn folks. Lucky for you that you never purchased a thing!
The fans strike back robbed me too bro. I ordered the 13 figs
Damn. Sorry to hear about that bro. God awful what TFSB has done to so many collectors out there. Hate hearing this kind of news.
So basically has TSFB/SLC got away with this? I was banned from his facebook group for chasing my bantha. It's obvious now that the whole 13/bantha has failed, yet i still see TFSB selling on Etsy. Why???? How can this be anything but a crime?
Sorry to hear all this! It’s a crime what they’ve done. I’m just trying to do my part by warning future collectors to stay away from this shady company.
You do great videos... thank you for spreading the word. I can't see any social media communication at all in last few months from TSFB and wondering if he finally has decided to run from his responsibilities.
Thanks for watching! I would love to see some justice for all the wrong that TFSB has done to collectors.
People hear what they want. Narcissistic saps are pure inward emotional response like a 3 year old mad at the Thunder for booming and an ice cream cone gets dropped... And it's all who know how INSANE such people are who are targeted by this baffling bafoonery. .. Love You Bro!!
Yes. People are nuts. And some definitely hear what they want and draw their own conclusions despite all the blatant proof in front of them. Cheers, Dude!
We should all spread the word about how big a fraud the so called 'Fans strike back' are! That way as many collectors as possible will be aware of the whole situation. The sooner that excuse for a business is run into the ground, the better for everyone in the hobby!
I'm all for that! Spread the word. I'm doing my part :)
I can understand people's frustrations. Us vintage collectors love the opportunity to add figures to our hobby which officially ended 37 years ago. These retro custom figures spark our imagination to think what could have been. So when a company doesn't deliver on its promises two years after taking pre orders, of course we're going to be kicking up a stink. As for the shit stirrers, they need to find something better to do for kicks because it's not healthy to try and agitate people on discussion forums.
Very very true. The customs definitely keep things alive for us collectors, you got that right!
No need to apologize for having to make this video. Fans/internet tough guys are 💯 idiots. I watched your first video and it convinced me to purchase the Stan Solo Leia. I had ZERO problem figuring out which one was superior and what your opinion of that other company (I won’t even use their name) is. You are always very clear and upfront in all of your videos (why I became a subscriber). Keep producing your awesome content. We’re not all morons, out here, and we appreciate what you do.
Well I appreciate your kinds words of support! Means a lot. Thank you very much!!
Joined TikTok yesterday, making my Lego stuff with Empire & COBRA & Decepticon, Masters of the Universe, my Darth Grumpy Old Men and Darth Fowchee!! Fun Stuff!!
Have fun with your gear, bud!
Awesome video as always, nice to see that company get call out for what it is.....a total scam
Just doing what comes natural...telling the truth!
@@GQJedi absolutely my friend
How dense do you have to be to watch that precious video and perceive it as a promotion of TFSB?
That's exactly what I asked myself when I received these asinine comments! LMAO. Well stated, Sir!
you were more than clear the first time.
I thought so too. Yet some folks still didn’t get the message. Oh well.
I understood Your video last week, its was extremely clear and to the point, there's some silly people out there dude, Love your work enjoy watching 🙏
Appreciate your support, David! Thanks so much :)
If someone thought your Slave Leia video was a promotion of TFSB, they obviously have a learning disability. Chances are they were locked in a dark closet when they misbehaved as a child and ot has affected their judgment.
That is very good possibility!! LMAO
This shouldn't be!
You shouldn't have to over explain to these clowns.
No one should be riding you.
I've heard from other channels also that "the fans strike back" were NOT to be trusted!
I only watch honest, up front hosts such as yourself and the others you've mentioned!
Thanks for the reminder/warning!
Thanks for the video!
I definitely shouldn't have had to make this video. But unfortunately, I did. I appreciate the kind words.
You are welcome! Thanks for watching.
@@GQJedi
Most definitely! You're perfectly welcome. :)
Me and my buddy got taken by Fans Strike Back. We both ordered the Bantha in box and 13 figures carded.
Sorry to hear that you have gone down that road with no end in sight. My condolences.
I completely agree with what you are saying. I too got scammed by that bullshit company. I guess we will never see those 13 figs. And yes Stan solo stuff it really awesome stuff.
Sorry to hear that, Ronnie. I doubt anyone will ever get a refund or get their figures. Bloody shame.
🙋♂️🇨🇦 No flag from UA-cam yet👍😎 keep the Force spark alive my friend don't give in to hate. Nice haircut 😁
Phew! LOL. I'll never join the Dark Side. And thanks! Had to switch things up :)
All the other figures from tfsb snaggletooth was a decent figure an the yak face from slc both chris's had good figures kevin made that figure while slc was still together. From what i hear. But the SS leia is better yes agreed. Krahn i cant believe but true has took money for bantha its sad .
Krahn is a crook. Plain and simple.
Michael French’s video on the Bantha shows what horrible of a product TFSB makes
Oh yeah, I've seen it. That Bantha is terribly crafted. Just an overpriced piece of trash. Yikes!
In fact as soon as seen your video, l went on line and made a purchase for a SS Leia slave fig and just received it a few days go
Niiiice! Super stoked for you, bro!
I don't even get whats going on. Your previous video was pretty obviously negative towards the TFSB figure. How anyone could think your promoting them is wierd. But regardless, I think your one of the best Vintage Star Wars reviewers on the site. You haven't been around for too long or at least I have not known your channel for a long time yet yours stands out as one of my favourites. Subscribed. Love the presentation, your collection is awesome. Incredible. I'm only now going to complete the first 12. I still need a farmboy Luke and Princess Leia. Recently got a small head Han. Love the visual style of your channel as well. Keep up the good work. Greetings from Budapest.
Greetings to you from sunny California!! Glad to have you here in the chat. I'm stoked that you're feeling the content as much as you are. Thanks for the kind words! Good luck and have fun on your collecting journey!!
Dude! Love your channel.
Thanks, brother!! 🤘🏻
I gave the fans strike back the benefit of the doubt at first about the 13 figures thinking they just bit off more than they could chew but we would eventually get the figures but about a year ago I wrote the figures off as never going to happen.
Sadly, I don't believe that 13 figure set will ever materialize. You are smart to forget about it in my opinion. It's criminal what TFSB has done. I'm bummed for anyone that invested a bunch of money into that.
Thanks again GQJ - Also lovely words about Chris Smith (Stan Solo)
Thanks for speaking out against TFSB
oh-how do i buy that hat?
Love you're channel
Keep it up brother
Love Stan Solo!!
I don't have more hats like this made. Would you seriously want to buy one if I had some manufactured?
Appreciate the love and support, brother!!!!
Yes sign me up for a hat - i need plenty for this bald head
Gotcha! Well if and when that time comes, I will definitely let everyone know when and where they can purchase one. I just have to see if there is actually enough interest to warrant ordering a batch.
There are some dumb ass people out there unfortunately. Your video was quite clear on what position you are taking. Keep up the great work.
I thought it was evident which side of the fence I was on. But I guess not. Appreciate you stopping by. Enjoy your weekend, Dano!
Well said, plenty of oxygen thieves out there.
That goes without saying. Such a shame.
I think someone was replying to RB who did in fact promote TFSB at one point in time but has since rescinded that support. Honestly, social media is not the place to try to prove anything. People will just believe what they want to believe. It's not worth trying to get them to understand. Bottom line, NO ONE should support The Fans Strike Back. If they do, they better come with a shit ton of inside information on what's happening. Otherwise we are left with what we can piece together. That is Krahn spent all the money on other things (his court battles most likely) or he lost it to shady Chinese factories. He is now trying to sell plastic bags, cardboard backdrops, and stickers to make enough to get runs of 2 figures at a time. He told him himself over the summer he only had 4 of the 13 figures done. FOUR! So sometime in 2035 we should get our full sets. Because the majority of people are voting for waiting for that if you believe that lie.
What Krahn has done and continues to do to his "customers" is appalling beyond belief. I am aware of his legal troubles. I'm also a firm believer in Karma. Hopefully it will bite him in the ass sooner rather than later. I don't expect anyone to ever see a full run of those figures in any lifetime. It is my wish that he goes out of business and face severe legal actions due to the many fans who have come forward against him. How anyone can still be purchasing ANYTHING from him, with all the information out there about him (bad press) is completely baffling.
I've seen the TFSB Bantha and it looks like they are handmade using casting resins and rubber bands. Maybe that's why it's taking him so long to get these orders filled because he's making the one at a time in his garage. Seriously has anyone thought of getting together to sue this joker for the money he stole? Would it be worth it in the long run?
LOL. I've seen a video of it. It's absolutely terrible looking. An abomination by all accounts. I have heard that people have already sued TFSB but not sure of the outcome if any. I hope they go out of business once and for all.
@@GQJedi I have bought from him in the past with no issues but I did purchase the slave Leia figure and decided once I seen the thing I reached out to him and complained of the lack of quality his response was to send me the same figure but carded. Never again will I buy from him. I hope that everybody who purchased the figure set and Banthas get their hard earned money back. Thank you for taking the time to make these videos for us fans.
Wow. Send you the same piece of trash wrapped in plastic?! LOL. Amazing and sad at the same time. I honestly doubt most folks will ever see a return for the money. I hope I am wrong. Thanks for tuning in, bud.
Hi, I just subbed to your channel.
Welcome! I drop new vids every Saturday morning.
How do we get the money back, if they aren't going to follow through with the 13?
I doubt anyone will. You have to take that up with TFSB. Write to them and complain. Or hire an attorney if you've got the money.
With regards to the bantha, your better off without it, I've seen reviews on it ( Retroblasting) it's a POS! That said however, they should have the decency to give you your money back if their not going to send you the thing!
I've seen RetroBlasting's video. That Bantha is atrocious. Just god awful. But I would like my money back, absolutely!
Anyone that thinks you support that POS Krahn at TFSB doesn’t have a clue what you’re about or how passionate you are about your collection and Star Wars. Keep up your great content and don’t let these idiots delay anymore great content. All the Best!
Appreciate the good vibes, Justin! Cheers ;)
TFSB turned to the Dark Side after Chris left for sure!
100%! But I'm glad that Chris started up Stan Solo. He's given us collectors so many great figures to add to our collections!
@@GQJedi Yeah for sure, I've bought all of his stuff up to the point it became financially difficult for me to buy everything he puts out - I ordered the ESB and ROTJ Fetts though, but had to sadly pass on the 9000 and even the Holiday Special Fett (that really bugs me!) - Let's hope 2023 bring peace and prosperity to us all - so I can buy more toys :D
At least when you do buy from SS, you know your money is going to a good place. You definitely get what you pay for and you definitely "get" said items. Amen.
Instant subscribed! I agree Fans strike back are scum, scam artists why people are still giving Chris Krahn their money is just stupid.
Some folks don't know about TFSB's reputation and some plain don't care and have no morals. Either way, the company is still out there scamming people. It needs to stop.
Please try to remember that 90 percent plus of us are honest people
And just love the channel and Star Wars. 😁
Thank God! But some folks still like to ignore the bigger picture and or start drama.
I'm grateful for those of you that tune in to the channel. MTFBWY!
Still waiting on my 13...
:( That sucks my man. There are thousands of people waiting on their 13 figures. Sadly I don't think anyone will ever get them.
your a good man .i understand the whole video you did .....
Thanks, mate! I figured You would :)
love your vids bro.
only a clown would insinuate such bullshit.
fukkem mate.
much love from Australia mate.
Ah thanks, Adrian. Appreciate the good vibes. 🤘🏻Big hello from sunny California. 😎
I also purchased the 13 un produced figures.....well we know why the are unproduced. Chris K took the money and ran. I did get a bantha(junk) wobbly legs and plug pos. Wish The Fans Strike would just go away. Chris at Stan Solo is the best, people like him and you true utubers care about the collectors.
Wow.. you actually got TFSB Bantha delivered to you. You're like a unicorn. But it truly is a disgraceful toy in every shape and form. I agree with your sentiments. Appreciate your support. And with any luck, TFSB will go out of business for good.
@@GQJedi yes I got one I will message you privately if that's OK with you and tell more information.
@@garystevenjackson6277 If you want to chat, please send me a message on Instagram @thegqjedi - I can respond there in private.
I can not understand how that idiot got that you were supporting The Fans strike back from your first video. you literally threw that garbage on the floor after after reviewing that p.o.s figure. I believed you even dropped an F bomb do to your passion for the hobby. Keep doing what you do man. love the content
Thanks, Greg! Appreciate you stopping thru and sharing your thoughts. Happy Turkey Day my man!
By the way, really looks like You need to eat some Steak and burgers a little more often. Looking a little Vegan. That Courtney Cox sunken Vampire look.
Bahahaha. That's hilarious. I love Steak and burgers. I eat burritos all the time but a little more red meat in the diet does sound pretty damn good actually.
It was likely a bored, lonely troll looking for reactions.
Must have been. I can't see any other reason for it.
Well said Sir
I just want to clear the air. I have no time for BS in my life or on this channel.
Gq jedi awesome video on star wars figures 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👽👽👽👽💀
I wish this video NEVER had to be made. I'm bummed out that folks spent their hard earned money on any TFSB product. Such a bloody shame what's happened to sooo many collectors out there.
People like that are more interested in running their mouths and creating drama than actually taking the time to watch a whole video or read a full post or article.
It was obvious what your stance was in regard to TFSB,but maybe he really wasn’t interested in getting the facts and just wanted to be an ass.
I believe you might be right. Either way, I don't tolerate that kind of nonsense.
Hi GQ, It was clear to me that you were reviewing both slave leia figures......SSC obviously is the better figure and TFSB is an awful, messy waste of plastic!...Some people really are as thick as shit to think otherwise..tc and thx for warning SW collectors
Hey there. There is no accounting for stupidity it seems. I can't beat people over the heads with these videos or my message. I trust folks are intelligent enough to decipher whats what on their own.
Hell l hav two SS Bantha’s in my collections
Thats AWESOME!
What are the fans strike actually telling people now when they ask about the 13?
That my friend, is an excellent question. An answer I don't have as I track TFSB in any way. The thought of cruising their website or trolling whatever Facebook group they have, doesn't appeal to me in any way. But I'm sure it's a doozy. Straight ball faced lies. Any word that comes out of CK's mouth is complete Bs.
@@GQJedi yeah I sent back a figure ages ago and never recieved a refund
Good god. What awesome customer service?! CK should be ashamed of himself. But he apparently has zero morals. None.
From what I've heard from others, if you ask on Facebook where your stuff is, you get banned.
That’s…just awesome customer service. Jesus. What an absolute joke on so many levels. Good grief.
Dude l thought u made it clear in your last video the warning is clearly there ,there’s no way to miss understand what u were telling others
Some people got things twisted. I thought it was pretty clear as well.
This video needs editing. 3 minutes of content spread over 20 minutes.
This comment needs editing. 👆🏻What’s the expression? “If you have nothing nice to say to someone, best to to say nothing at all.” I say this because every single comment you’ve left on my videos, albeit just a couple, has been negative and hyper critical. It’s best you stop watching my videos or just stop commenting.
