Quote - If SM had arranged the release of several completely different items with the figures then there would be something to interest everyone and a good idea of what's most popular. Now, there were some clothes released at the same time as the figures, but not enough to make a workable wardrobe for anyone. Not the RMP vendors fault, but a missed oppotunity by SM.
a full 'medieval wardrobe' is simply not going to happen with any new figure launch.
medieval clothing = niche. so is sci-fi.
pinup, fantasy, casual, fae and hair is mainstream.
to justify making medieval launch clothing for a new figure, the merchant would have to charge $30-50 for the clothing item, and noone is going to pay that because people want everything for $5.
