Not a bad little scam for the designer. Take a toy apart, workout the design to replicate, then sell it to someone for 10% of sales. Which in this case was $14 million, so $1.4 million, if he was the only designer. He probably sold them out to save his own butt, which is why I'm surprised they didn't do the work in house to provide an extra layer of protection. Too many cooks in the kitchen and all that
I guess Weijiang got a little too big and drew some unwanted attention. Wonder if the owners will see jail, or escape to rebrand?

Yep flew a lil too close to the sun! I wonder if Gt sold their design of Op Ex to Daban? Factory seconds? Mine had a few stress marks...
