Kapow is cutting back on 3rdp figures

Do you love your new Hercules set? Can't get enough of FansProject's items? Upset that you bought a knock off when you thought you were getting an original? Use this forum to tell everyone your thoughts about unlicensed and knock off TF products.

I wonder if this backlash will affect other retailers, UK-based or otherwise. From a business perspective, it's interesting to see the growth, saturation, and perhaps now stagnation of the 3rd Party marketplace. Between the glut of competition, retailer issues, and Hasbro stepping up official product, it's a pretty tight squeeze.

Yep. There's been so much of the 3rd party stuff these days that I've stopped buying most of it. I'm finishing off one 3rd party combiner and I'm getting the 3rd party 'Gobots' that are coming out, then I'm probably done. I'm way more excited about the official Takara MP line than anything the 3rd parties have been doing and Generations has been looking great as well, especially the new Arcee, which beats out any of the 3rd party versions I've seen so far.
