This one is for Phil got a 121 equibase number after never nearing 100 before. Perhaps someone could get the sheet number also?
-4 (negative) on Thoro-Graph.. And I believe a -1 on Ragozin.

There is simply not a discussion to be had about the Phil number... NONE.. EVERY SINGLE FIGURE MAKER HAS IT THE SAME. They all aren't wrong. There is just a group out there that has an irrational animosity for Andy Beyer. It's very strange.

the negativity towards beyer because he spoke out on his figure i thought was ridiculous. obviously the other figure makers back him up, so what limb do the beyer detractors have to stand on? surely they're aware that the other figure makers are also showing a big improvement by 'phil'? but the funniest part of it to me was dutrows 'how dare they question my integrity?' posture.
