For what it's worth, I don't see myself as being cynical. I see myself as playing the role of the consumer. I'm holding yours, and every potential competitor's product to a high standard, which I could imagine being seen as a welcome advantage for any toy maker who wishes to distinguish themselves from the competition.

I'm the "I want to pay a premium to buy something once, and to find joy in how every bit of that thing oozes passion and love by its creator" consumer.
