The last time I checked planet Earth, it seems Magengar wouldn't
be the Only toy geek in the world who'd buy factory seconds
and off-line rejects for the fun of surrounding himself with toy parts
he'd use to frankenstein custom figures.
It's relatively the same as Dumpster-diving for old scrap computer
parts to make modified machines.
It's relatively the same as scrounging scrapyards for old car parts
to build and customize and modify that 50,000 horse-powered
Yugo ya always wanted. ;D
That stuff wouldn't be for sale to the general public... it would have
to be advertised to, damn- how would I call it, ya know, collectors
in this hobby who buy and salvage Rejects for customs and mods.
Any collectors interested in this aspect would have to apply via
private membership, and NO SCALPERS ALLOWED... that way
the Rejects aren't black-marketed to the public passed off
as "authentic" items.
This is the kind of stuff you'd look for in the back ad pages
of obscure hobby magazines.
Butt, in all glamourous REALITY, that would Never happen.
It'll never happen, because there are technical issues
to consider. And again there's the Safety factor involved.
And, there are legal trade aspects, labor issues,
ISO 9000 standards to be met, and so many other
certifying technicalities under the hood as well.
A company would Never open the sale of Rejects to the public
because of safety issues (ie: LEAD PAINT in toys).
Children cannot protect themselves from it.
But us weird collectors would be willing to take that risk
and purchase a protoype reject of a toy for the way we'll
appreciate it in all its genuine authenticity.
I'd rather get Cut or Lead-poisoned just to have that one
reject prototype SOC Mazinger as a prize-token of its
authenticity from the source, as well as for the childhood
nostalgia it will make me feel.
While the selling of Rejects and factory-imperfect specimens
would be on a low-scale compared to the revenue generated
by finished perfect products, there is enough revenue to be
made here to reinvest back into the production costs of
making brand-new top-quality toy specimens.
The weird collector crowd goes home with reject specimens,
and the money goes back into the business. Win-Win.
Meanwhile, as long as the possibilitilities are endless,
I'll just browse thrift stores, dumpsters, alleyways,
auctions, fleamarkets, yardsales, anywhere I can find
unusual specimens. It gets my d**k hard and I enjoy it;
it gives me cool stuff to bring back Here.
And, it sets me apart from the pack.......
.....not all toy collectors are Mainstream.
Again, who is crazy Now?
zozo-Magengar
Selling defective or prototype molds of toys?
Are you out of your d**n
mind? You'd have to be an idiot to do that. Please tell me you aren't so out of it to think that a company would seriously do that.
