What happened to Johnny?
Draw a line straight back to the purchase of Playing Mantis by RC2 - that is when their downfall started. That many people correctly called this out as bad for the brand in many aspects including drop in quality, never ending hikes in prices and as Kevin pointed out MISERABLE DISTRIBUTION. And still through all of this decline the brands phonies and shills did all they could to protect and cover - so long as they were given the freebies and given (almost mock) honorable mention and status by the brands current owners.
Too bad.

couldn't agree with you more modsquad ...i never understood how they always had lots of stuff at the warehouse sale in Iowa, and yet it never made it to any of the stores.  i wish they had really made a bigger push into Canada. I was buying up as much as i could, sadly now it doesn't even come up here anymore.
