Neitlich was the founder and manager of mattycollector. Regardless of anyone that was above him, he was the one running the brands and he is responsible for the shortcomings of the brands sold. This includes price increases. ways to cut costs, selling the product any way he could.

The thing that makes him unique was his interaction with fans. His interaction was not because he is a fan like us, but a tactic to make people think he was --- thus gaining their trust --- thus fans believing EVERTHING he says --- thus selling more subs. It's called being calculating. This is why there is a vast amount of fans on various forums who constantly white knight the guy, they are all under his Sith Lord mind trick.

Scott's done some good, he's done some bad, but if anyone thinks that he HIMSELF was running the DC and MOTU brand, then have I got a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you! I have no doubt he had some big pull on those lines, but there is NO WAY Mattel and DC/WB would let one guy run an entire toyline, that'd be unfathomable! By that logic, Scott could've made "Chocolate Lava Scuba-Diving Superman" and "Fishnet and Keyboard Necktie Batman", and no one would've stopped him. DC/WB have an interest in making sure their characters are represented well, guys!
