>>6457162Its funny seeing the kings of gunpla struggle so much on something everyone else seems to get right, if they'd just let go of their restrictive HG practices and put a bit of money in they could easily take a piece of Koto's pie.
I suppose they don't feel like investing as much as an entire new line or models above 20$ just for a niche, but why even bother making them shitty HGs when the casuals won't care for them and the people who want cute girls will go to Koto instead. A Gunpla equivalent of the AGP line featuring more than just build fighter stuff, with MG budgets and good sculpts would print money.
I think Bandai has really underestimated the value of more expensive but high quality kits, its all HGs nowadays, when there is still a lot of money to be made from experienced builders or hobbyist willing to spend more than kids would, which overlaps with the more "mature" audience FAGs and MDs appeal to.
