>>6682802something new hip and trendy would be more costly, example hit 90s kids things like powerangers, or biker mice would have cost a lot of money and should the kids no longer want the new hip thing a flop is a risk (plus with a fast food toy it will need to sell and be developed and produced)
tltr... old things ( i p ) cheaper, less risk.
plus boys like monster toys... 90s kids like the rad fast food burgers after skateboarding .
