I think the biggest problem with 3rd party figures is the lack of support for clothing etc. after they're released It works both ways, though. If you work very hard on a figure, only to have people complain about how it looks or how much it costs, what incentive does that give for the creator to support the figure? That's why I said we have to help each other out instead of knocking each other down. It has grown so old, and it doesn't do much to benefit this community except discourage people from doing more for it.
