I proved my point, fine. But still you didn't listen; you continued with your "facts" with a one-track purpose.
No. I showed a new comparison from the right distance and it was resolved. But you seem to like to still gloat about it. It was a simple discussion about distance and perspective but you make it something more.

After a while, it just occurs to us that you're not listening despite the evidence and despite your erroneous comps and statements. If it takes dozens of posts or dozens of images to convince you, and if you get offended and cry "personal attack / snide / etc." then the only thing you have the right to be offended at is your own unwillingness and stubborn microscopic / myopic focus.
ipso my previous statement.

Add on top of that the fact that you've time and again put the burden of proof on others. I have seen too many threads where you've posted dozens of photos of weak suppositions and yet those same photos prove the opposite point, but it takes dozens and dozens more before you begin to look outside of your proverbial microscope.
Well if someone disagrees with me or accuses me of something as you have in the past, of course the burden of proof is on you. You keep referring back to that one instance about the 10ft vs 6ft comparison. And you say I am myopic?

This is an injustice to us. The burden of proof is on you the statement-maker and fact-stater.
Well? We've discussed that before when you accused me before of stating things as fact and I pointed out what I stated and it was clear...whether it was the TD thread or whatever. And why do you bring this "us" into your sentence? Do you need everyone else to back you up in order to feel like you are right?

At the end of a lot of posts and an entire thread of photos demonstrating the distance relationships. How much effort did that require? I guess you missed that, didn't you - how much effort people you put people through because you'd rather put the burden on them to disprove your claims.
Gee, sorry it was so much effort for you. What is the point then of discussing Vader castings? If you want to make a point clear, take some effort. If it's valid I will concede.

Always said? I guess you always said it in your photo comparisons too. I guess you missed that, and you'd the images to imply that the TD was superior in size. That would have helped you in the big marketing thread on the TD, how you supposed the TD could have fathered the ESBs, or even the TMs. Now that the truth is out and copies were made, I wonder how much effort and burden have been put on us Den folks to disprove what were nothing more than false marketing claims to boost the perceived value of your TD and, subsequently, TD castings.
Umm like what images? Maybe you should be a little bit more specific before you accuse me of something else. And you call the TD thread a marketing thread? I wasn't selling any TD castings so why would you call it that? And what do you mean, the truth is out? As someone mentioned (maybe you didn't read it), it was no secret there were copies of the TD because I showed them in the TD discussion thread a long time ago. But, you like to misconstrue things as usual.
So? How many TD castings do people own? You are so smart why don't you give us your profound insights into the TD marketing machine. If you only knew how many there are and how ridiculous you sound. I've make it clear what I think about castings such as the TM (which I have praised as the best ESB there is, the TD which has unique features that are not on the screen mask, and the SL). If you don't want me to talk about my impressions of them then I won't.

So this is personal? Not for me except for the fact that I hate to think that I was assailed by you for standing in the way of you boosting the value of the TD by posting erroneous comps that I had to constantly correct.
Very sad. Very, very sad.
It is personal. Because you continue to judge me. And for what reason?
Exactly what did you correct about the TD comparisons?
I have comparisons in detail of the DJ/TD/TM/SL/VP/MP and except for the MP they are at significant resolution. And four of those I've had or have in hand. So I've had a little bit of time to compare these things and make assessments on their similarities or differences. But with attitudes like yours I have no interest in showing them. I have yet to see you provide any insights into what is original or not in a casting. All you can talk about is something obvious like how far away to shoot a casting or how to reconstruct a damaged casting.
I could show details from the original screen helmet that you have never even seen before or considered. But why should I with such ingracious behavior. It's not me who drags down this forum, it's people like you.
