Again, there's various ways they can add weights to the figures, but inserting them into the bottom of the feet, into the hollow cavities, etc, would mean they'd have to still pay the extra $$$ to mold a piece using injection molding instead of the much cheaper die-cast molds with literally chinese quality zinc-shit.
The bottom line is that you're defending an outmodded technique that is a cost cutting factor that creates fragile figures. Yet collectors will pay extra for, because they believe weight matters, in an era of nearly every figure coming with a stand.
You know who actually goes out of their way to actually use a new technique, that doesn't rust, chip, or rub away? Mezco. Their Armored Batman used cold cast metal, which allows it to be molded in the color needed like a plastic and still have the look, heft, and feel of metal.
They spent the time and money to create a great looking durable toy, unlike cost cutting diecast crap.
>>7258035It just takes one small fall and you can end up with chipped paint. Of course, diecast feet don't fall, huh? A figure just falling over onto the surface it was standing on is enough to cause a chip if the metal is higher up in the body.
Nevermind that frequent handling will also cause the paint to rub off much faster than it ever would on plastic.
