It's very possible that the original claim about the legos isn't true, it could be a complicated legal issue that the original people don't fully understand or they are misrepresenting the agreement, but the guy is on video saying if he's sued (which is the perfect, appropriate way of resolving this) that he'll just drag it out so long that it won't be worth it anymore. So, regardless of the merits of the original claim, he himself made "doing it the right way" impossible and brought this on himself. the reckless ben guy himself did a bunch of dumb stuff, some of it illegal, which isn't okay, but that is now not the point lol

@meso youtube bricks and minifigs, supposedly some guy put like 200 grand worth of lego, his life's work collecting on consignment, then the company got sold and the new owners allegedly just kept the merchandise and told them they only had an agreement with the original owner, a youtuber got involved and now it's snowballing into a blatantly corrupt police department among other things.
@meso probably the important part here is, when you do this, you still own the property, you don't transfer ownership of the merchandise to the company, they just have possession so they can do the sale.

so this other guy has the lego and he's saying "their agreement is with the last company owner" ok, but when you took ownership of the company, its assets did NOT include those legos so your protest is irrelevant, the lego was never part of any agreement in the first place. but, there could be more going on, but I'm pretty sure he's just lying.
