First off, this isn't a thread to "bitch" in. If you don't like a specific exclusive from either past or present, go complain about it in it's own thread.
This topic is more so addressed to Ringside and anyone from the Mattel/Jakks team that might be reading. I was just wondering what type of process is put into place when coming up with an Exclusive figure, IE one that's not released at a Mass Retail base.
Is there's a suggestion conversation that takes place, or a different process taken to select what figures to make, and then what attire/style?
I know some of us have been around and seen exclusives from all different eras, but I've always wondering what exactly goes into going from "Let's make an Exclusive HBK figure with all of his title" to it actually being made.
Perhaps with a little more understanding in the process, we as a board can get a better feel for why certain exclusive figures are picked, when we may have had one or two in mind that we would have liked better.
