>>11148675>One of the main concerns with doing GI Joe at this scale was the prices of vehicles and playsetsSo what?
I wasn't part of the hype for people wanting shit in 1:12 scale, but there were a lot of people in these threads back then expecting much more.
>Hasbro was obviously a bit worried about if people would actually be buying all these high-priced, huge vehiclesFuck Hasbro. We've seen McFarlane release a bunch of oversized toys and vehicles year after year, without any problem, despite stores supposedly not wanting to carry them AND despite McFarlane's stuff being even bigger than 1:12 scale.
>Some people bitch because Hasbro is releasing things too fast. And you take these people seriously? They're making a joke about having to spend so much money regularly. Fact is, we're getting a trickle of releases compared to what we were used to
>your critical thinking skillsSays the guy who criticizes others about context and not even understanding context himself.
>You don't just go all-in on something...It's been FOUR years. IT didn't even take Hasbro 1/10th of that time to decide the 25th line would be a full blown toyline that could support itself without any media all the way until the movie would come out. IT didn't take Hasbro a THIRD of that time to decide that Sigma 6 was a mistake.
>no one can seem to agree on what they actually want anywayIt doesn't matter what you want to pretend what the fandom wants. It's been pretty clear what people were putting in a ton of money into and still invest heavily into.
Fact is, Hasbro has positioned itself where it can't sell lower priced goods and has been preventing their fans from getting what they want.
