Do you guys not remember how steep the quality drop was when Archer left and Warden came on board? Combiner Wars was the same handful of molds redecoed half a dozen times over on average with a bunch of "safe" 1984 retools mixed in. Titans Return saw tampos replaced with godawful preapplied stickers on anything bigger than a deluxe. Power of the Primes was an absolute abortion of hollow stickered mess that saw Hun-Grrr being remodeled from Silverbolt because they couldn't be assed to design an entirely new toy.
I still firmly believe Siege was only as good as it was because they finally brought habitual buyers to the breaking point and realized they had to raise the quality noticeably to reel them back in.
