I'm mainly talking about show-accuracy in their products.
they've been slowly getting there since the beginning
appealing products means more customers
i dont see how this is a suspicious plan, it's just good business
also, if i recall correctly, the "vinyl" figures are not necessarily produced or sold directly by Hasbro, rather an officially licensed third-party (company called Funko, which i think is tied to Hot Topic). it's not fan-made stuff, i know that much. still counts as official products
