Again, you THINK, but i will argue you're wrong.(thats to say , Its Christmas and you can't sell your product? c'mon)

The paint apps have been atrocious. The SDCC LION-O was badly done. The paint smudges to "define" muscle were like mud...Bad Quality.

The one thing outta the gate they needed to do was shore up their base. The hard core fans You know the ones that are fans of teh original show and are old enough to have money to buy better product ( again see mattel) .....and they just aren't doing that , thus the line dies.

The 4 horsemen simply sculpt BETTER, more EYE CATCHING figures.

and If you wanna take them outta the comparison, then look at Icon Heroes...they simply are producing better sculpts...more attractive sculpts.

From Jelenic to Bandai to CN..they've handled this property WRONG.
