The fact that the jap toys cost 10x more is probably a factor, though honestly "a lot of absolute knockouts" is comical upselling.

But as a Canadian I can buy an import for slightly less than 2x the price of the Hasbro version and get a toy that is x10 better.

canadian prices aren't measured in usd tho. all their prices look higher. the easiest way to see this is seeing that their minimum wage is double that of the us

I know, right, can you imagine liking Revoltech? That'd be the most embarrassing shit out there.
