>>6893451All that you said is invalid, considering people will knowingly buy bootlegs of NECA's stuff that has gone out of production or were produced in limited numbers.
Then there's the fact that Playmates is the premier license holder and what nostalgiafags would be rooting for.
Also, Takara's stuff is import only, so a large chunk of buyers aren't going to go down that road. Whereas the Figuarts were sold in physical national wide retail stores and mainstream online shops, with discounts and sales. So prices were also fair there as well.
Nah, you're just making shit up to defend a line that bombed in a positive way, to paint "your" company as perfect and anyone who didn't buy it is ebil and groddy.
The simple answer is simply: People didn't buy it because they didn't like it.
I know, i know, fanboys believe that their shit is the bestest ever and flawless and everyone who says otherwise trolling, but reality isn't some complex narrative like you're trying to make it seem. The market dictated what was liked and what wasn't. As mentioned before, less popular franchises got more support and are actually successful... despite the crummy likeness, but whatever, people liked it and it continues on, unlike TMNT.
