They’re one of the more notable companies that sell the 100+ dollar anime figurines

I'm torn between using this gif and this one in response.

The Justice League Unlimited episode where Lex Luthor switches bodies with the Flash was awesome.

"At least I'll finally get to learn who the flash is"

The company with the reputation of making detailed, non-China-garbage figurines for weebs with too much money to spend.

If you saw a figure that wasn't special made, it was probably from them.

Sounds like a good time for weebs to invest in 3D printers.

Those are all Chinese parts too, so they'd better invest quick.

Oh no, overpriced bullshit that costs pennies to make might not gouge Americans for a few months. The horror

Even funnier, this is for preorders. People are upset they can't fund the manufacturing for a company whose business model is built around overcharging for falsely limited runs. People are actually upset they can't pay in advance to be ripped off by a company that won't pay to make its own fucking products.

Has anyone dared to consider shithead companies fleecing morons with preorders (i.e. crowdfunding) shouldn't exist in the first fucking place?

These are all luxury items. It's time we put aside these toxic feminist infested companies and start over.

So will they drop the price once a trade deal is made in a few weeks probably or pull a Nintendo?

Hmmm, anime figures or a resilient domestic manufacturing base...? Tough choice.

Why’d you even post this? Do you go into every topic that doesn’t interest you to tell people you aren’t interested?

Probably for the same reason you left a useless reply that isn't on topic. Applying logic to oneself is hard
