Her comment isn't 100% true about toy companies. Many have no problem talking to you if you've managed to make a reputation in the toy field. I believe they do this to filter out the flood of people approaching them with obvious ideas. I get suggestions all the time are not novel.

@jeriellsworth I wonder if that mightn't be a difference between the engineering-side and art-side perspectives into the industry.

Being completely outside it myself I'm entitled to no opinion at all (not that that stops me :). But I'd find it believable that the reasons behind arms-lengthing could be different for "pay me for my idea/engineering design" versus "pay me for my artistic design".

This context of the toy information was coming from someone with NO reputation anywhere. This was for emerging artists just starting out. Also my information came direct from a prominent toy designer in the field.
