[QUOTE="Mistwell, post: 9287158, member: 2525"] But for D&D they're so far not squeezing it for every last cent. People like to make thar claim, but we all know what squeezing looks like for not just other product lines, but for THIS product line. TSR had hundreds of branded items for D&D at their peak of squeezing, and the number of branded items in this era pales in comparison. I mean, this is just a very small portion of what TSR did in literally one year: A.R.C. - puzzle art, plaque art, color & build castles Adica Pongo - Clay modeling kit American Publishing Corporation - jigsaw puzzles, sliding puzzles Amurol Products Company -- fantasy candy Arrow Industries -- pen and poster sets R.A.Briggs Company -- beach towels, bath sets Cascade Mountain Tee Company -- T-shirts, sweatshirts, baseball shirts, football shirts Coleco -- children's ride-on vehicles Collegeville Flag & Manufacturing Co. -- Halloween costumes Colorforms -- Colorforms puzzle forms, Shrinky Dinks, holograph laser stickers FNR International Corporation -- instant rub down picture transfers Fundimensions -- action scenes Hasbro Industries Inc. -- Lite Brite refills, Pencil-By-Number, Color-By-Number figurines, Mass-Market Plush IJE Kidstuff -- record & book and cassette & book sets, cassettes, records LJN Toys Ltd. -- articulated figures, play sets, mechanical toys, puffy stickers Marvel Comics Group -- children's coloring books, activity books, picture story books Mattel Electronics -- computer Labyrinth game, computer fantasy pocket game, Intellivision cartridges Natural Science Industries -- wood burning kits, candle making kits, wood crafts Placo Products -- Sword & Dagger set, Hand Defender set, Adventure set, Fantasy Forest bean bag toss game C.A. Reed -- paper & party goods and favors Troubador Press -- coloring album View Master International -- View Master reels, gift sets, related products Right now is nothing like that level of squeezing.
