As both a wimmenz collector and someone who babysits kids it's such horseshit, when it comes to the movies at least boys and girls go to see them.

You seriously think the kids I babysit that roleplay Skibidi Toilet wouldn't be able to get into Strong Glowy Space Lady? Come the fuck on. There's some Barbie Movie boardroom-ass cigar smoking chode, the same sort who decided he didn't personally like 4 inch figures so let's kill them, who chuckles at all the M-She-U memes and decided to put a hard cap on the number of female characters they can even make.

Thank God they're making those Ahsoka figs at least. I feel like I've given up on this shitshow of a line before we even saw any of them outside of the US.

It is pretty brazen, and it's the same kind of execs I suppose that forced Iron Man 3's main villain to be male so they could sell toys (of which they never made toys of the main villain outside of Lego and Heroclix) and none of the female mutants other than Leatherhead getting figs until wave 2 in the Mutant Mayhem line (and also not letting April's figure get a single release until later, either, making her an exclusive to a multi-pack).
