>>5971809So basically: middle of the road figures like McFarlane, for example, are allowed to ship with whatever glaring flaws they may have because
A)They're made for kids with an 8 to 12+ labeling so the quality doesn't really matter and
B)Companies know collectors will buy that shit anyway because they're interested in the franchise and they really can't find anything better because this particular type of product satisfies the market?
You know, when they first started talking about 3D Printers, my immediate thought was
>hey, I could make action figures with that!Cases like pic related just reinforce that fantasy.
I guess there's little room for craft in mass market.
