>>28198460Why can't they make two versions of these products? Just a cheap children's toy instead of a polished collector's item.
They wasted the potential with mega stones last Gen, which were large cat's eye marbles, easily produced.
They can never see the value in a collector's quality Pokedex either. Make a cheap destructible version for kids so they have to make return purchases and a high dollar virtually indestructible version that's presentable. It's not that hard GameFreak, learn how to market toys already. The premise of the game is collect them all, yet most merchandise doesn't provide in-game bonuses or resemble collectibles
(Moncollé being the exception, NOT the rule)
