Keeping Accountability 102

Night Shining the company owned and run by Pete Sinclair recently posted the following free comic for its RoboCon 2021.

And then the following happened:


While everything has turned out right in the end, for a person who has boasted that they know how the fandom and fans are, it shouldn't be a surprise that fans notice things and many of them are very supportive of many artists all throughout the fandom. While the original post gave credit to the artists who worked on the free comic, you'd think that the CARE expected would also not have been forgotten on this important detail. Transformers fans have been an incredibly vocal majority online in giving credit and support to artists.


Does Pete really know this fandom like he says he does? Was he paying attention when fans ranted about the FT-24 Rouge, Nicee, or the recently AlienAttack Toys OPG-01 all because they were overly sexualized? (All 3rd party products too.) If he's thinking this is special attention because it's him... not the case. And it really doesn't look all that great to forget credits.

Hopefully small faux pas like this will be one of the few.

But just in case, we'll be keeping track.

One Epic Implosion

Image
 May 10th 2021 It's the day that many should remember going down as the Epic Online Implosion that only a select group of the fandom experienced, but will hopefully resonate with fans weeks and months to come as the moment when what was said and what actually happened proved more that it's not about what can't be dropped by the fandom but what won't go away because it demands a shift from reality into a morphed version of glory days ended that will not be given back. After a long day of confrontation on different accounts across twitter, Pete had a epic meltdown on long time twitter user Vangelus, who handled the situation as best he could. Vangelus is NOT some one who has been vocally attacking Pete, but because in Pete's mind he is sure he's in on it... he insisted that Vangelus engage him. It was uncalled for harassment and Vangelus held his own. Click here to read the resulting tweets |  Tweet from Pete that started it all..  | ..more here | ..and here | .

The Jabby Jabby of all Jabbies!

Just to be clear on Pete Sinclair's stance on VACCINATION, out of his mouth specifically. He is 100% for  everyone getting the jab EXCEPT children. Even after having a very lengthy conversation on twitter with a pediatrician (you can see how that conversation went by clicking here ) which did not end with him defending his point of view well. Without having a medical background himself, or any credentials that tie him to the NIH, the CDC, or the FDA, he believes children shouldn't be vaccinated. And is completely FINE going after random grandmothers on twitter to SHAME them for such abuses to children! So does that make him half anti-vax or just anti-child-vax? Anti-child-covid-vax?? And he insists that the pandemic is now endemic, when the CDC and NIH have neither announced this nor  declared the United States free of Covid-19 hospitalizations. It's a really specific word, he's thrown it around a few times since November. "We are ENDEMIC" according to Pete. A

The Berger Incident

A random jump into voice actor Gregg Berger's Public Facebook Page in August 2020 ! (You'll need to add him on facebook to see the post! He's very approachable and loves to talk with fans!) Pete Sinclair is the second comment in and gets into it on a beloved voice actors personal Facebook page over politics and previous BotCon experiences, there is over 130 responses! Is this a person that you want to be associated with BotCon? I hope Gregg wasn't offended and doesn't decide to just not guest at anymore fan run conventions. Followers of our blog, if you've seen any other interactions like this online in public social media sites and would like to share it with us, we'd be more than happy to feature it here so everyone can see what kind of a person Mr. Sinclair is and how it's not okay to do things like this, if he wants to have a public discourse on his own Facebook page, that's fine. But not on a well known and loved voice actor of the Transformers
