I think why it stands out in this line is because it’s all very fantastical, so it’s weird in a line filled with monsters and such that every body shares like 2 bodies. At $40 a pop, that gets old, especially when buying duplicates for army building. Soldiers of fortune still being $40 a pop is...

I mean I was super into monster force, until it kinda burned itself out with endless repaints and limited creativity. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah part of the issue is that you have to buy it immediately. With legends and classified, you can spread things out a bit. Grab the hot items and pace out the other stuff. I was a big fan of monster force at the beginning but this line relies so much on army building at an expensive...

BBTS can seemingly warehouse an infinite supply of Super7 ultimates lol I think they could have spread out when these hit or even put these out at a later time Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I think it’s worth noting Monster Force isn’t exactly little ol Fresh Monkey Fiction anymore. It’s essentially BBTS which while a small player still should understand how toy customers make purchases and when product is coming in. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Actually would have been great, because Joe doesn’t release a lot of stuff in spring. This stuff is hitting at the same time Joe and most of the other hasbro lines are getting in their Christmas stock essentially which is a lot. Operation Monster Force is a secondary line for most collectors...

There was also a few case of hand peg issues with series 5, so I’m sure it’s also part of that as well Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

They really need to figure out how to cut cost. They’re charging a bit too much for the lack of new tooling, amount of repaints (these molds have to be paid for at this point), and amount of army builders Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Tbf they haven’t done it yet lol Also wouldn’t be till 2028

They’ve said they’re gonna do reissues in later waves

I’m hoping Annihilus ends up getting in the hands of those Chinese Ko companies Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah I think people would be surprised about the margin on tots in general Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

He said he just wants to dip his toe in oring because he’s not entirely sure how big the market is and if these first four are successful then he might do more Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah it’s something coming maybe next year Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Eh, the interview reflected more poorly on Russ than him. I’d maybe go back and watch it. While this steals any thunder from a potential third attempt at Street Humans, it might be a blessing to Russ. It was pretty apparent in the interview he was in over his head, and if it had been...

If you can get the SDS Swarm it’s great. The praetorian is probably the best figure in the line and is still available from big bad. Other than that, you probably don’t need the environmental ones, but he does have the Swarm Tracer and Sniper Blowback like 40% off on his website and they’re...

Yeah, so you got off right before the plastic got really good. SDS Wave 1 and wave 4 were great feeling figures. Small slide with with wave 5 because of all the new tooling but definitely still better than early stuff Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

There’s a small market for them. We actually saw something like this pop up from one of the wrestling toy companies but they were pretty cartoony. People that are buying these are the people that are buying multiples of the GI Joe Firefighter or Cop. You keep these small runs and put out...

Today’s DFW panel if anyone wants to watch it. Yes, we’re getting street figures in his new line “Extras!.” Looks to be friendly for diorama and action figure photography people. At ~$25 these will be good for building up scenes and have to imagine that gym set he showed off is just pretooling...

Just like if you’re gonna do a a line of cop figures, the name might be worth owning because it has some recognition Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Eh, while Action Force is super generic, the name was probably worth the few thousand dollars to get attention for the line. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I also in turn cancelled the zombie preorders and any of the good guy army builders since they can just be a squad Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
