Victor and Monty? OMG This is gonna go bad. Someone will start a riot in that bi**h. Someone is gonna get arrested.
For farting too much?
I have nothing against the actors of Chris Reid and Caleb Bendit, but they’re the same people who play Victor and Monty in Super Ninja Steel, the same people who did all that disgusting farting that killed the show, why would you have them there? Get TJ Roberts from Masked Rider or another actor from Super Sentai instead, please!
I wouldn’t be surprised if a crazy fan punched both of them in the face and kicked their a**es. Then got kicked out on the convention by security
Oh boy… anyone have any spare nose plugs? I can tell this year is gonna be a stinker..
I’m telling you there are some real psychos in this fandom. Something bad is gonna happen
Victor isn’t so bad, but I REALLY REALLY hate Monty with a passion, it’s not even funny…
Its no joke at all. Perhaps the actors don’t know that the characters they played are the most hated characters in the Power Rangers universe. One of them if not both of them will get themselves physically hurt at PMC. By some psycho in the fandom who may or may not have a gun.
They have plenty of security thankfully. Someone tried that with JDF and the guy got caught, so it should be fine. I plan on avoiding the actors at PMC.
