>>7530932You're trying to compare Hasbro's near non-existance in the 1:18 scale vs Mattel's... JP toys? The ones that also feature no torso articulation beyond a swivel? Single jointed elbows, knees, no wrists, no ankles, ball jointed heads that just act like swivels.
Mattel never changes. They still produce the same old shit as before, but i guess the JP toys aren't overpriced, but who wants that simplistic shit?
Whereas Hasbro still tries harder to make 1:18 figures, despite how fringe it has become.
No doubt, we'd see Hasbro making something better if stores were willing to carry the line.
