Scabs and Leeches

[MindsetOverhaul]

about a month ago i met up with a few dudes from OTCA. During one of many short discussions regarding the 3rd party s#!ts, it was pointed out how lame it is when some of these companies make add-ons for other 3rd party releases. Golden Pheonix joked "who are these guys? 4th party?", which stuck with me cos it hearing it roll off his tongue was like lotion for my ears (it was awesome. LOL).

Many/most 3rd parties have released kits for Has/Tak figures and it's commonly accepted that this is OK. When the same thing is done for 3rd party $#!7 it erks me. I't just seems more scabby than the usual kit release, don't ask why.

so anyway, DR WU is a more recent goose that springs to mind. I personally feel his face and head add-ons are so unnecessary, like a parasitic leech. It's just there feeding off others' hard work and contributing to the overwhelming mass of not great 3rd party stuffs. Objectively, It could be justifiably argued that any 3rd party kit is bludging off Has/Tak in the same fashion and you'd be right, although some of the add-ons are seriously in certain Has/Tak figures' favor in terms of playability and canon.

i could probably go on but, yeh, whatever.
please chime in with their thoughts on sh!7 related to this...
