It's interesting to see what we know will in fact be the biggest shelfwarmer of the year get another release. My question is: are they stupid? Nobody is clambering for Que.

Seriously, why do you faggots let these retards shill third party shit?

My luck with figma is terrible recently. Saw Laplus was on sale at BBTS, decided to pick her up, and one of the elbows just snaps right off after a few bends. Yay... surely this can't be glued.

Contact GSC with photos and a receipt, and they should send you a replacement arm.

That's a tough call. I am probably one of the most vocal "fans" of the show. But even that comes with my qualification of "pretend this is He-Man's son in space" to help get over the lack of connection to regular Motu.
The New Adventues cartoon is kind of like an ink blot test. If you want to be positive about the show then you'll notice its good qualities and have an decent time. But if your mindset is that the show is hot trash that killed the brand you'll find a lot of justify that repuation.

Is a small lot of empty canisters really worth $230?

This isn't a listing price. The auction ended at that price

>>11633819
Not really, sure cool plastic colors but not seen any good mocs using the cans

>>11633819
no? who tf paid for this

>>11633835
I set my max bid to $50 and even that felt excessive.

$250 is the high end for lots of all 6 of the Toa with their canisters included. Nobody pays $230 for empty packaging. Most of these are beat up with damaged labels too

The two on the right are acceptable for Megaman, and the one on the left is acceptable for X. The 2nd from the left X could also be an acceptable X but I can't tell if he looks cross-eyed or not due to the angle.

Paying for a license is expensive.
If Hasbro expected to get 10,000 sales from this, that's over 2.6 million dollars. With royalties and the license, they licensor usually gets about 5-20% from whatevers sold and that's usually spread out across 50k-10million units. So the percentage is now higher due to lower sales expectations. This is why the Tron figures cost as much as they do, because there's way less product being sold to absorb that cost of production + licensing fees.

Anyway, so now they're out of making their money back from the license.

They're out of all the resources they spent making the prototypes, which is wasted man hours and employees. Those employees and hours would have been better spent making products that sell in the hundreds of thousands of units and even millions.

So Hasbro considers this a pretty big loss and will affect future projects. Executives aren't fans of anything but money, and don't understand or care if something is popular or not, because how can they trust the Haslab managers again after they chose the Tron project?

>>11633812
Hasbro was given a packet from Disney about how Tron Legacy was it's 89th most popolar movie, generating more cash at theaters than Cars 3, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Thunderbolts, Black Widow, and just a few tens of million dollars away from Beauty and the Beast.
They probably also showed them how they sold $50 million worth of DVD/BDs for the original tron and how Tron Legacy sold nearly $70 million in BD/DVDs, so it has a very stable and somewhat large fanbase. It's a sure fucking thing!

... of course, who wants to spend nearly $300 for something you won't get until almsot 2 years later? And how many Tron fans even knows that Haslab exists?

>the 2020s is an awful time to be living in.
Only for Americans

>>11633831
I wonder what kind of 'team' puts together the Haslab for Tron though since Tron isn't a consistent property. I also imagine this will have them shy away from doing Haslabs for anything that is not already something they produce a line for like Transformers, GI Joe, Marvel, or Star Wars. I guess Ghostbusters might be an exception since that has worked in the past.

>>11633867
I would say it is fair for them not to trust whoever greenlit this either. I could've told them this would fail and I'm outside the toy industry. It's insanely risky to do anything Tron, it's an IP known for flops. It has a cult following sure, but that following also tends to be more savvy than your average Hasbro customer that is all in on a line and is buying a lot of product.

That's actually 21st Century Toys. They did a whole line of villains, but Armed Terrorist was definitely the most infamous. Walmart's lackadsisical return policy and the downturn in '08 is what eventually killed them, though.

And she doesn't even have an of I don't think. So guess it's all for attention

Sure hope we get a good TVC reveal for this Gift the Galaxy thing. My expectation is kind of high considering we got the Anakin and HTTE 3-packs during last year's campaign.

I knew their hipster shop in SF would be closing when they announced the new CEO. They need to cut pointless expenditures that don't turn a profit to make their investors happy. I bet the rent on those two stores was never covered by sales, let alone all the other expenses for a physical store.
And I doubt wave 2 of 2k3 is cancelled. They are probably halfway through tooling the molds and will need to recoup their expenditure on those, and TMNT is one of their only lines that sells relatively well. They've already pissed off some of their customers that got in on the ground floor for lines like Simpsons that felt like the rug was pulled when it was cancelled before they could even release the whole family. Same goes for their Disney line. They need to win back customer faith, and scrapping 2k3 w2 would destroy that.

>>11633845
I don't think they're going to win back anything. That's some massive cope thinking they can do anything at this point.

>>11633872
honestly china should just release the toys for cheap on aliexpress like they did with those earth worm jim toys, I'd be very happy knowing none of that money would be going to flynn
