>>6831174Toyguru confirmed that the Mattel execs wanted Matty to run on the most minimal amount of money possible with maximum profit. They wanted the reused molds to be the majority of tooling, they wanted t sucker people into buying 10+ subs per person to "keep the line going", they forced ridiculous sales demands while barely hiring anyone to run things and using the absolute cheapest, most shit mailing service they could find without becoming literally Hitler in the process. Mattel were the ones who said "no" to 200X content or anything else, said "no" to reissuing figures that had serious QC fuck-ups, etc.
Then when he left and they replaced him, they lied to everyone and said he'd done all that, magically allowing it all to happen as "proof" to make him look bad. Beyond that, shit didn't change much, still Digital River, still reused molds, and the other brands they took on were run like shit.
Know why they handed this crap to Super7? Brian Flynn is a fucking moron, they saw that, and suckered him into taking on all the risk in a line they no longer saw as profitable. If MOTUC tanks, he eats it, not them. Thankfully S7 fanboys are literally psychotic and no matter how bad the QC gets or how much he lies, they'll still buy the toys because "it broke? Well what do you expect for only $35?" is how brainwashed these shits are. They slammed Toyguru for daring to spill the beans on how awful Matty was.
