That's completely wrong. That is just so off the mark, they spend millions on market research tools, they do tons of testing and in-person research like focus groups and so forth, figuring out that stuff is like half of their staff, and their managers have to have some college background that includes psychology. They aren't just guessing here.Tigermegatron wrote:Jedi,The sheer fact is when a TF toy line performs badly in stores. The Hasbro crew/PR in those board meetings blame everything they can think of. they throw out random ideas like bad aesthetic sculpt,repeative designs,bad enginering,same core cast,price,smaller toys,colors,etc... because nobody really knows what's the thought process for a "NO-BUY" is in the consumers mind. sales data facts can only go so far, as it gives no reasons why,other than the items were not bought by the consumer at a volume hoped for.

See, that one's a camcorder, that one's a camera, that one's a phone, and they're doing "Speak no evil, See no evil, Hear no evil", get it?
