Jeez bored of this now........ Guess they've got everyone talking about them, so if that's what they were after that's what they got

Don't slap it, tap it!!!!

Short and sweet. I don't agree with what tigerz and roo systems are doing, and I certainly wouldn't buy their stuff after all the bad things I've read about them.
However I don't use my camping stuff everyday and I just cannot justify spending mega bucks on the 'top' quality gear. I try to shop mid range, stuff that isn't super cheap and nasty, but doesn't cost a mint. All I want is somthing that will last me a weekend here and a week there, anymore than that and I think I would be wasting my money. I'm sure alot of other younger guys on here and some of the older ones too agree?

well boys this just came up on the 4wd tv facebook page written by the national 4x4 and outdoor show
"Hi all,

I'd just like to make quite clear that Tigerz11 and Roo Systems were not "banned" from the Melbourne 4x4 Show, as 4WD Action and Roothy so incorrectly, irrationally and embarrassingly stated.

The fact is that they had not rebooked their stands for the 2013 show when they had to opportunity to do so and they were consequently on sold. We offer first-right-of-refusal to ALL previous show exhibitors, but after countless phone calls and emails to 4WD Action (4WD Action manage the show bookings for Tigerz and Roo... no surprise there!) we had no reply.

When they did finally wake up to the fact the Melbourne 4x4 Show was fast approaching they attempted to book in, but unfortunately due to the high demand for exhibition space this year, coupled with the fact they requested a larger stand indoors for Tigerz11 which we did not have, we just couldn’t accommodate them. Instead of enquiring on an option outdoors for the Tigerz11 or Roo stands, they cracked the sad’s and we didn’t hear from them again… until now.

In the end, it was the stupidity of 4WD Action to claim they were banned from the Melbourne 4x4 Show, Roothy to shoot off his mouth, without first finding out all the facts (geez Roothy what's happened to you mate, you used to be an iconic and respectable face of the 4wd community... and a valued guest of the 4x4 shows) but the icing on the cake.., to send out a newsletter and mail out to their members, complaining they were banned (opportunity again to have another winch and roof top tent sale) which was a complete and utter lie.

All's I can say, if 4WD Action continue down this path - so very far from the respectable magazine that once was - they'll only succeed in burying themselves. They’ve lost the respect of the National 4x4 Show, the respect of the Industry, the respect of so many of their loyal followers and they’ll never be invited to exhibit at our 4x4 shows ever again.

Just as I predicted, not banned at all. Their trash magazine and hosts aren't worth the Chinese paper they print on!

[GU CAMPER]

Useless magazine

That's all that is worth saying

Wow. This is like watching a train crash.

No, like Young and Restless mixed with Days of our lives.

Tis quite humorous to finally find out the truth.
Poosystems and Figers11 were shafted by their owners. Great job o'foolish one.

Smashed, only if they listened to the reader and didn't get so greedy

Wow. This is like watching a train crash.

Hahaha, couldn't put it better myself.. I think the magazine and the clowns there would be in damage control right now...possibly looking for new careers.

I had 1 1/2 packets of buttered microwave popcorn reading the truth....
