>>10245520>Old toys often had shit paint though. More =/= better.LOL way to show your childhood best years were 2019-2018
More often than not, paint was better back then. All collector companies had ACE paint jobs, and they shame every paint job today, unless you're paying a shit ton of money vs ~$10-15 back then.
>Articulation has only gone up on averageIt hasn't. Articulation has averaged 25+PoA since the mid00s. Because of late adopters and cmopanies cutting back on it and then readding it, this is the only reason you think it's gone up. Again, peak was late 00s and companies like Hasbro haven't even returned to that peak despite readding
>Nobody reads American comicsSo that means they weren't extras to give you even more value to your complexly painted, higher QC, more accessories, bigger accessories, more articulated action figure that cost only $7?
If you want to prove me wrong, post any company that gives you a VEHICLE with your toy for only $7. Adjust that for inflation, that's $10 (9.15 but im rounding up to help you)
>b-b-b-b-but i dont like the proportionsI don't like the proportions on Yamaguchi's disjointed modern Revoltechs, but I'd have to be a retard like you to discount the fact that they use a lot of molds to produce them
>This is literally the only point you haveNah, it's just one of many points, which you've only tried to shrug off with contrarian nonsense. You're pretending there are more stores today, despite the gigantic internet boom in the 90s and 00s, where they were slowly shoved off the internet or bought out. There were more physical and internet stores back then, hence a larger variety of toys being produced. This is why you mainly see MARVEL MARVEL MARVEL MARVEL DC, despite hundreds of thousands to millions of fans for many other properties
The amount of outlets and properties that can be monetized are inherently linked
And because there were so many physical and internet stores in the late 00s, there was a ton of variety
