How about we raise import tariffs to the point where our corporations will save money by moving their manufacturing plants back to the states where they can give jobs to the countless unemployed people that are looking for work so they can have money to spend in our economy which will raise the value of the dollar back to where it was so the inflation costs will be reduced back to a normal level that working families will feel comfortable spending some of their money on things like yet another repaint of Cybertron Jetfire?
Oh, you're right. That will never work...

On the contrary, G1 re-issues are selling like hotcakes if I'm wrong well show me a place where they are gathering dust?( IH and Ratchet may be the exception though) and last but not the least, all this re-paints.........stoooooooooooopid!

Sure it could, if you don't mind paying $20 or more for a deluxe figure

How do you figure $20 for a deluxe? The only reason they jumped up to where they are now is our economy adjusting the dollar to the value of gold. If the dollar starts to go up in value deluxes, at their current price point, will be a profit engine. Enough of a profit engine to afford the salaries of american factory workers who will have money to spend on their craft, as it were.
Pinky Prime
Oh hey guys, wouldn't Cybertron Soundwave make a neat Blaster? Or what about Cyclonus as a Technobot?

He's got some pretty far-out powers to go along with them, too, including teleportation, the projection of trippy telepathic visions and illusions, and the ability to groove on the language of 98% of all known species. To uses his powers to the fullest, though, he's gotta be feelin' good vibrations; bad karma can seriously harsh his mellow, y'know?

All these companies that are losing money because they are not putting it back where they got it from.
Like you said, the majority of their expenses are spent on mass production. So most of hasbro's money is getting pumped into the eastern market.
But hasbro is a western company with a western culture audience. So, it has to bring its product back here so they can generate a profit from the western market.
The problem is that the western market is on life support because it is running out of money. The western market doesn't produce anything the eastern market needs on any significant level, so our money just sits there.
This terrible situation can be avoided if companies produced the product where their customer base is located to keep the cycle of money flowing forever.

I find his youthful ideas most refreshing.

Mkall wrote:Sorry, wasn't implying that was the case. More of a general statement towards the current economic situation and attitudes rather than personal choice.
I think you mentioned it somewhere, but I did forget the associated costs in transporting the goods. That would definitely fall with local production facilities. I don't know how much shipping en masse from China costs, but if it's anything like (ebay x 1,000,000) then that could keep prices down, but there would still be a small increase methinks.

You're gonna make an adult swim version of TFA called 'The Great War', preferably with the SW: the clone wars cgi styling, that will be aired as 25 bi-weekly, 11 minute stand alone chapters that close in an 88 minute finale titled 'Year One' that ties all the previous episodes to this main event ala SW: Tales from Mos Eisley?
That would be sweet, thank you.

There will always be a price increase, but in this case, it would be worth it a couple years down the line as the money returns to the western market and people get back to having a disposable income.
