No need for sarcasm.  It would seem entirely possible that someone, or even more than one hobbyist, has seen her and would be willing to comment on the discussion board, yet didn't write a review.

That doesn't make any sense, so you assume that because their website still says "be the first to min or review her" then nobody has seen her?

Not everyone who takes plunges posts minis or reviews.
Those are the ones I want to hear comments from...
