In other words, it's an outside company that somehow managed to obtain a Takara license ? How does a company obtain this rare status ???

I don't know a lot about these types of figures, what are the problems?

Looks like she got on Movie Universe Optimus Prime's bad side.

Yeah, X, who do you think makes all those official non-main toyline Transformers products? For example, the Revoltech figures are made by Kaiyodo, who, like CM Corp, acquired the license by Takara.cannonfodder4000 wrote:Rated X wrote:So CM Corp is basically a "2nd Party" company ?

Happens all the time actually, just cause third party dudes don't do it doesn't mean it ain't a common practice.

So either a Takara/Tomy license is very expensive or they are very selective about who they conduct business with. Which would you guess ???

A bit of both. TakaraTomy gets a share of the profits made, that's something. Also, licenses are usually given to companies in fields TakaraTomy isn't that active and/or specialised in. So, companies that made full transforming robot figures can't count on one.
