AFAIK, McFarlane is a private company and has none of these shareholder or stock option "pressures" so he can keep his toy prices fair and competitive. The same would apply to Diamond if they are also private, I suspect that they are, though I can't confirm it.
Once again. Its not about greed. Its just business. Like Toddfather mentioned its the execs job to make sure there are profits for shareholders. Otherwise their jobs will be at stake does mean Hasbro is always profiting
For example. Probably part of Marvel Legends price hije is because many waves of Marvel Legends didnt perform well, Eternals, Xmen AOA part2, Shang Chi, etc amd the MCU solo stuff
