I remember hearing complaints about BAF as a concept since the dark days, so it's probably them going "well if they hate BAFs, then we can just charge them for deluxes" (which is obscene considering back in 2020, deluxe figures only cost like 40 dollars, and now they're hitting 50-60 USD, which is roughly 80 dollars here).
The thing that frustrates me is that accessories will be taken out, and they were already limited to begin with.

Considering Chris Cocks had the audacity to say that consumers were "price sensitive", it becomes pretty obvious that not even Legends was immune to this. Nerdzoic did mention that he'd heard significant rumblings of retailers complaining to their distributors about the amount of swaps and returns happening due to QC issues, which got relayed to Hasbro.
