Everything else is acceptable.

The company has made SO MUCH MONEY that it seems they lose focus on creating a wanted unique figure and messing up basic accessories of the figures in high demand. They are also in danger of oversaturation of the Legend market again. Since you're an expert in articulation, face features, paint schemes, shading, and overall accessories that actually capture a figure, has this company grown in supplying the consumer with what they want? If not which company comes close to giving collectors what they want and seem to need? Just asking...🙂

Hasbro doesn't have to because more people will buy anything they release than the number of people who choose to spend their money wisely. Why spend money on new molds when you have people throwing money at you for something you already have? Apologists and people who try to justify purchases are the reason companies don't try hard. Bandai and NECA seem to be more oriented toward giving customers what they want but both slip back here and there as well. The only company to ever really go full speed in the direction of making happy customers was SOTA.
