Why can't they make their own toyline?

Square Enix and Nintendo have their own toyline. Nintendo is more of a game company than Capcom

Yes and World of Nintendo and Playarts are both some of the worst toys available. Capcom has Monsterarts and Storm, as well as the occasional Figma and SHF. Why don't you just buy those?

same reason they cant figure out rollback netcode or bring back megaman games, there are devs that just need to retire/die before capcom produces anything that isnt resident evil meme fodder

i would much rather they contract a 3rd party company so their products are affordable and their is competition within these companys. SQUARE makes their own figures and they charge whatever they want because only they make it. SFH and storm have done a great job with the street fighter figures.

Capcom is generally dumb as fuck, simple as that. They have a legendary catalog of IPs and have mismanaged so, so, very many of them. Frankly, I'm stunned that the RE and DMC series even bounced back, for a while I thought Capcom was unsaveable.

They just put out a pretty good Mega Man a couple year ago, man.

I never got into LP2 (or even finished the first, actually) but I remember playing the first one for the first time and feeling this sense of awe. It was so cool, like my childhood Ice Planet 2002 fantasies come to life.

Better off licensing them out. They need to be more laidback with RE and let both American and Japanese companies make loads of figures. They have so many iconic decisions that they can make money off of.

their licensing costs are probably too much, neca randy always makes excuses like that or they won't let him release a certain character, like those tf2 dolls thry took a decade to release

Has there ever been an actually good "in-house" toyline from a company that normally doesn't make toys?

Why should they? Unless you are backed by a pop culture juggernaut like MCU you can't really make a lot of money on toys

I will never forgive Capcom for memory holing Viewtiful Joe. I'm still hopeful for a new game, but I know it will probably never happen.

They're not primarily a toy company so it'd be risking a lot of money to release a potentially sub-par product. As someone mentioned, we'd also be stuck with whatever quality they release for whatever price they want, and that'd be your only way to get Capcom figures.
I'd prefer if they just licensed their IP's to more companies beyond the occasional Nendoroid; they're sitting on a goldmine. It's actually kinda weird how few RE figures there are.

At this point I'll take an HD collection like Super Monkey Ball, the other discarded gem series from that kino era.

I felt the same way until they redeemed themselves with Resident Evil 2. If that game wasn't great, I wasn't ever going to buy a Capcom game again. RE3 (remake) was alright, but I also enjoyed RE8. I think they hit gold with the RE Engine. It's such an amazing engine. How that thing runs so well on a base PS4 is beyond me

To stay on topic, I would LOVE some toys from the series but i doubt we'll eve get them. RE1, RE2 and RE3 is just begging for them
