Yes...and it was made clear at the exact moment Mustache said the Retro line was as and even more highly detailed/better sculpted than the Classified line.

I don't smoke weed, but I believe this is proof that you miss details when your high. I'll get one, just so I can paint the hair, and keep the updated face paint.

Nah, it's always money. There are costs into building this shit we fail to take into account or are unaware of. Like, for instance, someone has to sit down, comb through parts, play mix and match, trial and error, and build each figure. That takes time, and time be money, yo. And then there are the costs associated with finding molds, breaking them up (legs from this one, arms from that one, etc) and all the associated testing and QC that has to be done on it. Plus, some builds probably cost more than others to use/produce. Like, more articulation probably means more cost simply due to increased parts and complexity of assembly. All of that is costly.
This line feels like the path of least resistance to me. Short of not releasing anything at all, this is a whatever takes the least amount of time and money to bring something to market sorta deal. |

Well now I can't unsee that. With all their talk about how "handsome" Flint is supposed to be it wouldn't surprise me at all if Flint's face is supposed to be based on Lenny.

Who do you think Crank Case is based on. He didn't have a beard.

You guys are so fucking disrespectful. Seriously.
Do yourselves a favor, take a minute or two and just read this: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0441592/ Chris Kattan has had a storied career. Sure, all slapstick, but storied nonetheless. WTF have you guys done, eh? EH? You ever stand beside Will Farrell? Ok then. Stop talking smack. Buy the figure. Support the arts. |

Retro being a walmart exclusive line, they are not going to invest a ton of money into this line guys. If Retro was being pushed everywhere and to all retailers they would care more, but this is just more of a side project being done with a single retailer, they don't have the incentive or sales reach with one retailer to put a ton of money into this line.
Classified is what matters now |
