>>7577492Oh, I'm sorry for using an example of how Mattel charges $20 for figures featuring less articulation than MU toys from the 00s.
The JP toys are also pretty bad, but i guess if you cherry pick these specific lines, i might as well cherry pick this example of how much better Hasbro's JP line was when they gave a fuck.
Either way, there is literally nothing at Mattel that you can say is good for your money, just like Hasbro not being so good with their JP line overall either.
But unlike Mattel, when Hasbro gives a shit, they're great. Mattel enver gives a shit.
And Mega Blox come with fewer accessories now, fewer pieces, fewer minifigures, and have cheaped out on the paint.
>>7577497kids also like things that seem adult-ish too. Having a prestige black label that you see on so many "classy" shit makes collector "black series" toys more appealing and accepted.
Not sure why you even want to argue against having windowed packaging, artwork, and premium cardboard when it's literally a fact packaging is extremely important.
Again, i may not like it, but that shit is obviously selling in the millions and this is why packaging is important for all mainstream lines, not just black series.
