Can we just discuss the FIGURES and leave the companies and their motivations out of it? I've been tempted to lock this thread from message one just because of the childishness further up on this page. If any dog returns to that vomit, please notify me. I will delete all messages that are off topic at that time, and issue repremands to those who cannot stay on topic.

Clear?

Upon review of the entire thread, I have a question: What has been posted in this thread that is productive? By productive, I mean, what has been posted that the poster REALLY expects will have the slightest minor iota of impact on any of the mentioned figures? Do you REALLY think this is going to change what Daz, SM, or anyone else does with their figures?

My personal opinion (clearly labeled) is that this entire thread is a thinly disguised troll to see what fights can be started. Sure enough, some of the usual suspects took the bait. Oh, well...

I am, however, giving the thread and the OP the benefit of the doubt, as on rare occasions I AM wrong about things. (Sarcasm flagged)
