>>8511327In my opinion, it's a huge problem that Bandai's divisions don't communicate or share with each other at all. They might as well be a collection of separate warring states, it's fucking dumb. Nobody can benefit from the advances the others make, so it's like reinventing the goddamn wheel on multiple fronts. Pretty much all they had to do was sell a SHF still on the sprue.
Bandai also has a strange insistence on doing things Their Way™, even when it's fucking stupid and makes no sense. Case in point? Certain other companies see something that will be difficult to paint for most people and look bad as a sticker, so they pre-paint it, but Bandai will insist on using a shit-ass sticker pretty much every time.
