Please never advertise for this predatory company anymore.

[Tharringbone]

Seems like TEMU is just trying to sponsor every hobby YouTuber. I wish more would do a little more research before accepting the sponsorship. Big respect for GameyBuilds for admitting he was unaware of TEMU’s reputation and pulled his sponsored segment.

[kaneworsnop]

It would have been nice if you had actually tested the items to see if they're any good.

[sweatilaa]

Those tufts are literally Army Painter tufts, they didn’t even bother to change the packaging.

[FyreMagyk]

Always happy to see you post a video, Jon, but seeing this as Temu sponsored video kind of soured it for me. Given the allegations and whatnot, it seems rather precarious to be sponsored by them. Please be careful with who you are sponsored by, I'd like to see more of your work.

[theycallmepiccolo]

Can we stop advertising these actual scam sites 💀

[beningham]

When you mentioned you were doing this in the podcast I assumed it was un-sponsored and a great way to poke fun at shit websites like this. Dissapointing to see you're supporting them

[agnpaints]

A bit disappointed in you for endorsing them. Felt similar with Squidmar when he advertised the lord of the print tarrasque from an unlicensed seller

[bastiancole]

The godzilla is absolutely from Lord of the Print. If whoever is selling that doesnt have the commercial license, that's a problem.

[tempusavatar]

Please support local, everyone!
Shout out to all my local proprietors I visit. If you don't have any local proprietors because you live small town, search around, there's somebody close to you that will be happy to ship to you.

[alanmuir]

I might be wrong but that mimic looks like the stl you get from Loot studios welcome pack, so it might be someone selling prints of loot's stl's

[marinapfanzelt]

Temu is mainly interested in getting your data and selling it. Things like bank data, social media account data... I would not want to sign up there just for some cheap products that you might, or might not recieve.

[phillipzachry]

4:30 I recognize that mini! That's Lord of the Print's Kaiju Lizard. They printed it super small. The default size is actually fairly large and a great model.

[papajulietromeo]

Ninjon lost brownie points on this one. Feel like this was a sponsored video rather than an impartial review.

[kyleeckenrode]

Almost 2 weeks since, not a word. Interesting.

[alexlittlejinx]

Do you actually vet your sponsors? This is at least the 2nd that people have called out to be a scam

[tjthehobopainter]

Save yourself the effort for the 'coupon bundle' unless ur a temu fan. 5 seperate coupons, you can only use one per order. They're like order minimum $75 to use one $15 coupon.

[cpom]

Man its crazy how much a single video can really diminish how much respect and goodwill a channel cultivated with you over a long ammount of time.

[Shdw]

those tufts look like the army painter ones even the packaging - just without the army painter logo ^^

[Omegaterrain]

Ninjon, I love your work and your videos but can't help feeling confused that you criticize GW for their business practices and at the same time support Temu. I get it, it's ad $$$, fair enough. I just feel there are far better independent sellers and other retailers to support.
