What the hell happened to this company? Feels like all they've been doing for the past few years is drip-feeding Halo Reach spartans.

I wish they kept their Izmojuki series going, but like 50% smaller

The last two Samurai Troopers releases not having matching brown and purple armor for their hands is dumb. They are shown both ways in art. Almost ruins the whole line for me.

They got assmad when someone stole their prototype figures from a con and took their ball and went home.

I wish I was joking.

getting prototypes stolen is pretty bad, because prototypes are sometimes the only thing that exists for the product to be made.
Not everything is digitally made or 3d printed.

pic are some Phantasy Star Online figures that got stolen at e3 and completely killed the line, because they were hand made prototypes. SEGA begged for them back, no questions asked.

Bullshit. No company should ever have a single prototype for something, and they really shouldn't then bring that single prototype across the country/world to a massive show where you won't have eyes on it all the time, and anything can happen to it both in the transportation and at the show itself.

Modern design tools mean that a prototype should have dozens of iterations and samples, it should also have 3D files. By the time something shows up to the public I'd expect a ton of prototypes on existence and even if all of them were stolen or destroyed the building blocks to make more are still in existence. At most you might lose the most recent update, some tiny change, or the first physical painted proto etc, something that means virtually nothing cost wise when compared to the total costs of manufacturing.

There could be any number of reasons why the toys didn't come out- usually lack of money, lack of interest, rights issues, internal conflict at the company, but a proto model that's already written off as a show floor ad ain't it.

If a company is somehow dumb enough to only have one, and loses all their backup files, and then takes that one single proto somewhere and then allows that to be stolen, they fucking deserve to not be in business.
