As I've remarked before, it's a catch 22 for Hasbro. Build quality toys, with the resulting higher price points, and they don't sell well enough to meet the expectations of major retailers. Build toys to meet the pricepoints the one remaining interested retailer (TRU) wants and catch hell for the lower-grade plastic and QC issues.
It sucks sometimes, but I'm choosing to accept the concessions Hasbro had to make out of necessity in order to bring some great stuff to market. In the end, these toys aren't nearly as bad as some of the more vehement bitching makes them out to be and I'm happy to have them. Then again, I also remember that there have been QC issues all along since the 25th releases. |
