>>11143251I used to be a hardcore Star Wars collector, and I will never forgive them for how they treated the 3 3/4" line back between 2012 and TFA in an attempt to lure collectors towards Black Series. Sail Barge and Cantina would have been instant purchases if they had been made back then. The big ass Millenium Falcon and AT-AT were some of my favourite toys ever.
Their apathy towards what collectors had been collecting (only for them to beg us to come back once they realised kids didn't give a fuck about Star Wars) killed most of my love for collecting Star Wars, and the Disney movies were the final nail in the coffin.
I bought a Classified Alley Viper for half price out of nostalgia for the original RAH figure. It's ok. Have a ML Frogman I got for half price sitting in my pile of loot. Might get a few more ML for half price, like Retroblasting and the big bad from that Eternals movie because I like tentacle monsters. Got some Power Rangers Lightning Collection critters for half price to use in my Berserk Eclipse display.
That's all Hasbro is good for. Half price background fodder.
Whenever the Doomposters make threads about 2 more weeks until Hasbro gets gutted by Bain Capital, I always hope it happens this time. Fuck Hasbro. They don't trigger me, but I don't feel inclined to support them.
