Collectors are definitely the backbone for companies like Mezco, Neca, Diamond Select and McFarlane Toys among others, but not when it comes to Toy Giants like Playmates, no matter the collector presence, we will never make the commercial impact the way kids do.

For a property like TMNT, kids will always eat that stuff up even if collectors claim they won’t. I think it’s fair to say most adults don’t even collect toys or watch cartoons but the vast majority of kids still do both and their parents will gladly drag them to the nearest store to buys these especially when their well made and gave a decent price point.

We may be the loudest on the forums, but kids are the loudest in the isles. It’s simply a numbers game and they outnumber collectors.
