Why the hell is the onus on customers to show PROOF to the design team at Mattel that the black plastic on new MOTUC figures is chipping?I have a Spikor - his knee was chipped before I even opened the packaging. Plenty of people have dozens of photos online of their figures with chipping paint, and black being revealed underneath. It's like sh!tty quality 80s/90s toys all over again
What "crack scientist" at Mattel thought this was a good idea? Ruben? Who honestly couldn't see what was going to happen with this??
Scott - you've been told!! It doesn't matter that you've only found 30 pictures of it... there aren't a huge amount of pics of Snout Spout's splittling trunk, Goddess' exploding torso, or Mr Stay Puft's yellowing body, but you've managed to acknowledge all of them as "errors" or "issues".So, he's passed it on? Yippeee... took long enough! Shouldn't have happened in the first place. Scott even states it was a "cost cutting" measure, and now they'll have to look for a new one. Cost cutting? Aren't we paying more per figure so we don't lose quality??
You know what's gonna happen - the 2014 line won't happen and fans/customers will get the blame cos we didn't just suck it up in regards to black plastic. They'll say they tried to save money but customers wouldn't let them! It will be our fault again!
This line has jumped the shark!
