Finally.
Put a lot of people out of work by the look of it.

Maybe they can design their own original toys and sell those instead.
Unlikely the shop workers have that sort of skill. And ring leader is going to jail.

The workers are basically victims of exploitation which is probably why they're not being charged or prosecuted but rather their bosses are facing gaol time. It's part of the insidiousness of bootlegging; the victims aren't just the end consumers or the company that owns the IP but also the workers too. Makes me hate these <people.born.to.unwed.parents> even more.
I hope that the workers will find new jobs soon in a more honest line of work. I suspect that many of these workers are from rural parts of China with low levels of education, so their options aren't the greatest. Doesn't excuse illegal manufacturers from exploiting them though.
