>>10776962>Things have changed a lot since then.Yes things have changed. Like them focusing on and actually doing well with model kits and Scale World instead after their SHF try failed and the VAH failed under their Megahouse side. Pokemon now wouldn't do any better especially at these current prices when you could get the Team Rockets for the price of one figure these days before they shelfwarmed. This doesn't even include the figma stuff that was still going and not really moving way after Bandai changed course.
The Select line doesn't mean shit when at the time the western articulated Tomy figures were out and every one loved those as much as the non shit Select and stuff still didn't move like it should've.
>>10776986That's literally how this company thinks you fucking retard. Do you know what thread you are in and how much shit was axed and has no chance of coming back? Do you how many times they tried with Pokemon? They went from D-Arts then to SHF with Mega Blaziken and Lucario, Blaziken was already half off when I started collecting 9 years ago, then they dropped Pokken shit with VAH and no one wanted those because "muh stylized Mewtwo and fur texture Lucario". Then they dropped the Ash and the Rockets in SHF and they barely moved, dropped that ugly Pikachu that no one wanted, then finally they were like "oh fuck uhh Charizard P Bandai rerelease with new effect, uhh rerelease Mewtwo without mew and uuhh fix Blastoise's feet, peace out buy Scale World bitches"
It doesn't matter what you fags think or clearly didn't experience. They tried, they failed, and now found success just doing cheap model kits and candy toys. Current day Pokefags are totally going to buy 10k+yen Ash, Misty, Brock, Other fuckers they don't care about with no accessories and Monsterarts price tier Pokemon and not buy the cheap stuff right? To me, They are exactly the same type of people that didn't buy the other now dead lines like TMNT until a discount happened.
