It's just bad research and bad attention to detail. No one will take responsibility and no one wants to answer the hard questions. It would just end up as a bunch of people pointing at each other in a circle.
I honestly think a lot of it is Hasbro just getting tired of the same old questions. I think even old Sharti got the talking to about continuously hitting on the double jointed elbow, cuz he did tone it down, but by then the train was already the track and it had too much steam. There is a remedy for having to address the same old issue over and over though, it's called doing better.
Yeah, they aren't going to say "Yeah guys, we got lazy". Also totally agree, if they don't want to here the same old questions being thrown up about scale and mold choices and the like then they have to address it.

Asking about specific bucks to be dropped or reused could get quite annoying, still they should at least explain why they choose that mold for that character.

He was given a set of "suggestions" that he might want to steer away from. They could hit on them, but it would be less likely that they would choose your question to address. I don't quite remember them all, but one of them was not to ask when or where specific characters would be done or redone, and I think another was about the issues when working off concept art and final product. I think one of the others was when/if specific sculpts, such as Bucky Cap or Hyperion, would be put out to pasture and whether some bucks, such as the Moonstone, would ever be used again. I imagine the scale issue might fall somewhere in under that umbrella.
I'd just love to see if someone woulda had the stones to ask one of these questions anyway. Chances are someone did, but we just never got to see it.

Well I mean.. these issues arent anything new so why havent they ever been called out in interviews or Q&As before? Or have they?

They shouldn't have a do not ask list, if people have questions they sould be allowed to ask them.

I too hope they get called out for scale issues and continued overuse of that horrid female body buck; I've never seen anyone state that there's some "no-go" list. Also, if they're going to insist on using older, outdated molds, then maybe the price for those should be cut back. Never happen, I know, but its just flat wrong that Thor, Iron Man, Blue Marvel, & Maria Hill are on improved molds selling around $25.00, and Madame Hydra, on a much older mold in the same wave is selling at the same price.

If so I'd love for someone to call him out, as the director of merchandising, for what or if he intends to do about the terrible scale issues, specifically with the continued use of the Sunfire mold for characters in the 6'4" and up areas. Guys like Falcon, Silver Surfur and Firelord deserve better.

I wouldn't be surprised if the HasLab is this month's 20th reveal and then they use Pulsecon to go into more details.
