TM was great for it's time, expensive but the QA was there at least.
Then the clones came in and eventually caught up in terms of QA.
TM didn't really give much of a damn though. IIRC the patent laws in Japan prevent the cheap clones from being imported to Japan, so TM enjoys a massive domestic market (even in the height of TM's power in the Americas, probably for even one international TM airsoft gun sold, probably 10 or more sold in the Japanese domestic market).
