Besides the retail stores are the ones that buy the product at cost then we buy it at a markup so hasbro will make their money anyway
The only way they would not is if stores stop buying them
Yes exactly. Do not feel forced to buy these toys at full price if you dont want to. And toys have a 2 year cycle, so it impossible for the sales figures of trypticon to effect them making scorponok or not since production the next titan figure will already have been done before trypitcon hits the shelves.
Yeah, his argument of: '
buy it or no more titan class figures' has
always been full of sh|t, and any post he makes about it should just be ignored.
Buy it, or don't, if you do choose to buy it, buy it at a price you feel it merits, simple as that.
A product of a one track mind unwilling to hear the opposing view
Typical mindset by the safe spaces participants in UC Berkely, you don't like what you hear, you destroy and name call/insult!
Btw, why'd you not ignore it with the block button if my post is just full of it?
If the retailers stop buying the stuff from Hb because y'all just wait for a price drop removes the incentive to make new products. Just read one quote from Bob Budiansky when at the tail end of the G1 cycle back in the 90s same conditions happened.
Stores weren't buying anymore. Hasbro can sell TF all they like at cost and the retailers are the ones marking up. Well, if you don't meet your profit margins well let's see how much stock you can move in to retail anymore.
Plain and simple economics. No demand, no more attempts to sell. Eco 101.
Might as well say, buy 3rd party
You knowitall bellyachers want to rant against a certain part of a toyline which this site is said to advocate yet later buy the item at cheap. Fine. It's a bargain. Human nature. But you still buy them. If its such a poor quality item, then why waste cash on it at all? Just admit it you can't buy them full price. That's just a subconscious reaction y'all that wanna admit.
Btw Burn, I thought someone put me on the ignore list? See? Quality really has gone down.
but they are anticipating trypicon will sell well just like metroplex devastator and fortress maximus, otherwise they would abandon the titan class altogether so they will most likely release more titan class, the only reason the g1 line didn't sell well in the 90s because it had been a long running toy line and it was getting tiresome and uninteresting and everyone was not into it anymore until beastwars breathed new life into it
Eco 101
Boom and bust cycles. That is reality. Happened to the videogame industry too. What's to say it won't happen again?
Btw, see the images by Exvee? It's like a repeat what happened to Optimus Maximus. To pitch it and show the corporate suits that
bigazz figs will sell, the former was made of chopped up parts of DotM Ark parts. It was like a trial balloon. It must have sold good.Good. For Trypticon, it seems they did it again, comparing if the same amount of materials can fit on a new product (not including the features of course)
If this info I got is accurate, revise the percentage application to HB because it is a much bigger company
manufacturing cost: Depends on item, but ~55% of selling price will be the production fee (including prototype charge)
units have you (manufacturer) manufactured of different items? MOQ 3,000-5,000 pcs. If too cheap item, 10,000 pcs is necessary.
How many units do you need to sell to be profitable? if over 3,000 pcs, nearly all items we can start to get profit
Trypticon should fall somewhere here to give Hb the incentive to make another.
Yet I'm being called full of sh_t by a STAFF no less for advocating to support a Hasbro product? I'd expect that from Rated X and other 3rd party advocates to take a swipe but from 2 STAFF no less?
