Love, love, love TAMA B/B kits.
All mine could be for sale too, if you are looking for something in particular.

That room! Oh my
Never owned one, but have played a few. Great drums, and not just for the price point.
Mmm... Saturns.
Bish the top kit is awesome.

Never played, but I've heard them before. They sounded great. The only negative I've heard about the new Tama is the "wobbly" floor tom legs and mounts.

Play the SONG......not the DRUMS!!!

The wobbly is someone's opinion. Not trying to self promote (especially with this video) but watch the floor tom. You can see how horrible the wobble is. Especially if you look at the beginning and at about the 2 minute mark where I actually play the floor tom. See just how much wobble you get when playing the drum. It's really a non-concern.

Bish I see my next kit in the back corner in your video!
Not really an opinion it is obviously a fact that it wobbles, the opinion is whether or not you think it is an issue and want to play with it like that. And for the record mine wobbled even worse than that. But obviously they all do not do it. I am sure Tama will warranty them if you have an issue with em although their customer service is one of the worst of the major manufacturers.

Wobbled worse than what? The floor tom was solid and never moved. I emphatically disagree with it being an issue. It apparently is for you and that's really too bad. But your mind is made up and it's not going to have any affect on any one but you. I love playing all my TAMA kits "like that."
If you take any good kit with rubber mounts to dampen vibration you will get some movement, I don't care what kit you have. If you like rigid legs and tom mounts, there's nothing wrong with that. They all used to be that way in the old days.
Further, I've never needed customer service with TAMA or any brand for that matter.

Looks plenty sturdy to me.

I am just passing my experiences with Tama on to others who ask. I do not want to upset fans of any brand but I try to be honest as I hope others would be for me when I ask about a specific brand or model. I had real bad experience with a silverstar and customer service was some guy on a chat forum, I could not even find a phone # on their website and then I tried the B/B but the F/T legs were ridiculously wobbly, granted the latter was used but we could not find anything obvious that would cause it.

The B/B shells are sweet, and (in my opinion), Tama has some of the best finishes available. The leg movement thing wouldn't bother me unless it was REALLY bad. Even then, it's easy enough to just swap out the mount brackets to a traditional style.

My B/B kit is amazing! I can't heap enough praise on them. Versatile, warm, deep or high, punchy, great decay! Pretty much impossible to make them sound bad lol

I love mine. I have the line prior to the ones made today, and never had a problem with the legs and mounts. The color on the 14” tom is a little more greener than the rest of the kit. That’s how it came when I ordered it.
Ughhhh,,anyway yet again....maybe they all do not do it but.....
and here is a whole thread on it
