All the hate this guy gets always struck me as more sour grapes than anything else. Bitter "superfans" angry that they weren't the ones in charge of the line, and unable (like many adult collectors) to accept that they're not as large a market as they like to think they are, or that toy companies should be happy to lose money (or even cut their profit margins) in order to please them.

I haven't gotten a figure from MotUC yet that I outright disliked. Yeah, minor QC boo boos are annoying (reversed shoulders), but hardly the end of the world. And the QC issues were basically on what...a half-dozen to a dozen figures out of how many?

Scott doesn't get all the credit for MotUC, of course...the 4H get about 60-70%, but part of Scott's job was to pimp the line, and pimp the line he did. Love him or hate him, it was also clear that he loved MOTU. Yeah, plenty of fans didn't like "his vision" being the one that controlled the line or disagreed about certain aspects as fans are inclined to do...but that just gets back to sour grapes.

I look back on my MOTUC collection and see a great line of action figures. That's all that really matters to me at the end of the day.
