Hasbro made terrible moves. They price hiked before anyone, did basically mystery boxes for Marvel without the gimmick, declined the quality & accessories despite continuing to raise prices, didn’t seem to give a damn about what fans want, & make frustrating moves with their rereleases & articulation issues & withholding the good stuff so they squeeze more money out of people who themselves are hurting in this economy. They screwed up on the Ghost Rider car Haslab, including the fact that they have yet to release Miphisto. They never have those army builders they claimed they’d continue to produce (there’s lost opportunity to profit). Bad sculpts, unappealing bodies etc. The list of mistakes goes on, & it isn’t like they don’t have ways to be aware of all of it. They could’ve course corrected. But everyone in charge of everything seems to just be morons who justify everything they do while putting down their customers & ignoring criticism.
Of course, secondary markets have gone bananas. Nothing lowers in prices, can’t trust any reviews anymore, scalpers have decided apparently to destroy the market (probably not even making their money back either), there’s more knockoffs than ever. Stores don’t gaf about these products & the companies producing them have decided to mainly focus on preorders anyway, not realizing there’s cons to that system as well.
