I really don't get the appeal and the how the cloth goods might limit the articulation or how the mold is the same ?

If you ever wonder why any company keeps producing anything, you can safely assume that it’s because that thing is making money for them.

That’s it. No big mystery.

I’m tired of this hyper-autistic shit where other anons can’t even begin to fathom how anyone else might want or like anything that they themselves don’t want or like at that particular moment.

because that's what brings them the big bucks, shame they waste all their talent on capeshit and Disney trash for the majority of the time but it is what it is, I'm waiting for some new brand to rise up and start giving us more movie, tv show and gaming characters.

I know how you feel but as others have said. Its always the lowest common denominator shit that sells the most. They might as well be owned by Disney at this point and I'm surprised we haven't seen HT's at disney stores. I miss the old hot toys that did experimental shit. Obscure shit like video games and comic pieces. Sadly all toy companies are slowly turning to this. Soon figma will only be fateshit. Bandai is also capeshit and Mafex and revoltech are getting there.

the good ol' days, I wish they could revisit the predator and aliens line, maybe do more video game characters like solid snake, adam jensen, go back to resident evil and perhaps touch on new stuff like red dead and cyberpunk, but I'm not deluding myself, like you said they might as well be owned by disney at this point...

Because geek culture became mainstream and with that the demand for "geek" things grew. Hot Toys used to do military figures and there where plenty of brands that dedicated themselves to other licenses and historical eras but all these nu geeks came in and flooded the market with demands for capeshit and shitwars, forums dedicated to 1/6 scale where overrun with newfags that looked down on people that kitbashed figures, built custom figures from scratch or built their own clothes and gear and thus 1/6 became a shadow of its former self and now almost every 1/6 scale forum is over run with normie geeks who look down on the old heads and the people who where in the hobby longer than the 4 to 6 weeks they usually stay active because they can't afford to pay ridiculous prices for mid quality figures.

I like capeshit but faggots with too much disposable income demanded capeshit and starshit so that's what Hot Toys is going to deliver. It's not rocket surgery. I've moved down to 1/12 scale. There's some cool things in 1/12 and cool shit on its way and although I can easily afford 1/6 hot shit I can't justify the pricing for plastic shit in 1/6 so fuck them. 1/12 will scratch that itch for shit I end up putting in a display case anyway. I have bigger and badder toys to buy. PC gaming, Tech, and Car upgrades.

Kinda wish they would do horror. They're doing Pennywise, which is a good start I guess.
