He also still has the Acorn figure for sale at 3D Commune's store. He hadn't given a faerie away in quite a while only one faerie this year. He pulled his other characters from the stores and only the Acorn character was left for sale until he worked with Menhdi on Wisteria. I think a lot of what happened was blown way out of proportion, it wasn't even his faeries people were concerned about, it was the Daz kids. Sorry but I don't think he is a martyr, I think he just made a business decision. If I'm wrong I'm sure he will correct me, and I think he should be the one to state his reasons, not 20 people giving their own opinions as to why he quit giving away the calendar faeries. Marque
