damn it really is like that isn't it, makes you think for a change

Don't care; only buy plamo from other companies.

What is the context for this? The behaviour of gunpla hobbyists?

That's not what it says at all.

these are plastic toys not state of the art silicons, give me a break

>>23366264
What are you even trying to say? It's bad for toys to be in stock?

>>23366309
it's all about striking a balance between production, demand and availability. Bandai has had plenty of examples whether they've overestimated and underestimated demand of certain things, pic related

>>23366309
They're models.
Not toys.

False equivalence.

Yes, buy your 6 year old kid a $30 Master Grade kit, recommended for 15+ year old and tell them to build it.

>>23367209
If you're going to call a comparison a false equivalence, you have to actually explain what the substantive difference between the two examples is

I don't think the problem with gunpla is the amount produced. It's the awful way it's distributed in the west.
It feels like Bandai tries their hardest to make their product very hard to find.

It's probably more just deeply embedded apathy about western distribution. Even now, it's still something like 70% of all Gunpla sales being domestic, and 30% across the entire rest of the world. And 2/3 of that worldwide figure is still only within Asia
>"But surely the 10% won't grow if they don't make an effort to improve global distribution!"
Yeah, obvs, but then that goes back to

I love that geriatrics still think MGs are relevant.
