Should we capitulate to a multi-billion dollar corporation about re-using molds in one of their toylines meanwhile prices keep going up? Did we create this situation by being ok with constant re-use so they can "save money".
Im hoping with raised living costs people stop buying all these repaints and we start getting new molds.

I have around 30 transformers, total. I've gotten almost all for good deals.
I don't think kids five a shit and they certainly aren't dropping 50-80 dollars on *one* toy.
The rising costs are not simply "oh covid and war." They're an attempt to maintain profit margins with a shrinking customer base.
That said constant reuse is nothing new. I dunno.
