If you talk about japan, you get the rise of model kits, and how japanese people like max watanabe wanted to make figures that could be mistaken for painted model kits, which is how figma became a thing. Also kamen rider and power rangers were a huge driving force for more articulation, eventually culminating in sh figuarts.
(Also you can talk about beast wars, but its main innovations were placing ball joints everywhere possible.
If you want to talk american, you come to the conclusion that mcfarlane made spawn, which completely upended the toy industry by making toys for teens. This opened a ton of floodgates for making more accurate "collectible toys. Similar to japan, Toybiz uses technology from model kits to develop super articulated toy lines using this new style of accuracy. This gives birth to spiderman classics, and eventually Marvel Legends. After ML, every toy company wanted a super articulated 6" line to match up with it.
Currently japan is fighting with how to make characters more accurate than they already are,which is going to be impossible. The USA is fighting with increased prices, which make their toys unaffordable, as well as their franchises dieing.
In conclusion todd should really release a new spawn wave with a definitive spawn.
