>>10267441>CLEAR AcetalYes, again, CARS use ACETAL. You know those headlights and how they're stuck behind CLEAR housing so they can shine their light? That shit is made to withstand a 2000lb car bumping into other objects at 2-8mph, whose force is much more than just 2000lb because of physics, and not crack or shatter. Not even from the stress from the support frames buckling from the tap.
>DC Collectibles had years of hell This is bullshit.
Considering how DCC responded to their TAS figures and NOT anything before, it means there really was no problem before aside from a few hamhands.
You can point out anecdotal accounts, but it's like pointing out that Hasbro's GI Joes and Star Wars figures breaking, despite Hasbro's plastics being nigh-unbreakable.
Again, DCC released two seperate 3.75" toylines (and a chibi line using even smaller joints), multiple waves, across multiple years, and there was nary any bitching about their super thin joints breaking. DCC was using lexan plastic for years and years, which is even more expensive than acetal and used for these next to impossible to break thin discs.
Again, you can bitch on a poor batch or poor manufacturing for specific toys/waves, but there's a reason why these clear plastics are used across thousands of industries and have an extremely lengthy track record of being extremely durable.
Unfortunately, because people are stupid, they need to make radical changes in order to be seen as doing something and please these superstitious dullwits who don't understand statistics and graphs.
