I wonder if any of you guys can help me out with this. They brought back the Raichu plush which I've wanted forever, but in the store pictures he looks different and cheaper than the old one.
Here is a pic showing the new (left) vs. the old (right). The new one seems to be rounder and wider and less sculpted, plus the color is a sort of off-model sherbet orange. I also noticed they moved the factory from China to Philippines. Do you think this new batch of plushes might have poorer craftsmanship? Or maybe just shoddier photography than the old store pics?
I don't know where else to find information on this stuff, as very few people get this autistic about Pokemon plushes
