>>6199422>LEGO has higher QCNot as high as they used to, considering how easily the legs get stress marks and the sides of the torsos crack. Not to mention CMFs are often complained about in /lg/ for having a noticeably lower quality than those that come in proper sets.
>new parts for figuresNew accesories. The same basic legs/torso/head design has been the same since the eighties.
> these are mostly all the same figure just with different paint.Which does apply to Lego.
I have regrown to love Lego Minifigures, but it doesn't change the fact that Mega blindbags are a vastly superior deal to CMFs. More parts, more articulation, and unless I just got lucky, I've only had one QC issue with loose joints on the pink Spartan.
Paying MORE for CMFs is basically just a Lego tax, unless Mega is selling their figures at a massive loss, which seems rather unlikely, especially after the Mattel buyout.
