Default Homework?

If having a toy that says "NFL" on it is all we need to make us happy, than this is great news.

But if your not going to make a substantial improvement on a product, why bother... We should be looking for more. More realistic poses, bigger and better running boards and precise and easy to use decals. Has this "toy" company done any research? Has anyone been contacted or asked any questions about the hobby or the market? If ANY company was SMART, they would be on the phone to Reggie, Dwayne Jennings, Chris Robinson, Damon Lucas or Shawn Noble on how to make better poses. They would retain the services of a Bruce Watts or a Bill Porche on how to mass produce quality big boards.

Perhaps this company has done this, or has big plans on how to move up the product to the hobby, but I don't know how effective any plans would be without the involvement of us coaches. I wonder if any homework has been done regarding the ELF. I believe that the company that has been involved with the hobby for fourteen plus years SHOULD be able to do better.

Thus far they have a LOOOONG way to go to impress me
