question regarding broken moulds????

by primatives » Sat Jul 14, 2007 12:31 am

Just wondering about broken moulds??? I hear stories about companies not being able to reissue certain toys cos they dont have the moulds. I wonder why is it that KO of certain TF's tend to pop up. If it is so expensive and the original moulds are broken then how can these small oversesa re create soguht after figures like the Dinobots????????

Motto: "Don't do drugs, beer's cheaper anyway!"

Two posabilitye, one they stole the molds, two they base the figures of the actual toy.

Ya, it's possible to re-create molds using one of the figures. It turns out a little bigger, I think, because if I remember right, they cast the parts in something they make the mold out of. Which is why a lot of people question why Takara/Hasbro don't do that.
