Agree, it does indeed look like they ran out of money lol. I'm not trying to be cruel, really, but it is weak as tea. I mean that 7th pic....at first glance, it looks like one of the cheaper christmas tree ornaments you can find in the bargain dollar store... On the other hand, they did try something different, so that's cool.

Laughable...he's really trying to make the most of this but it just aint getting there....

From JC, the originator of the topic: "Now all of this is for fun and not meant to suggest in any way actual figures Hasbro will be doing, but it does gives us a nice idea of what they might look like if or when Hasbro decides to do some of these guys as actual Marvel Legends figures." The brother couldn't have been any clearer about it.

Well, well, well.....now where have I heard that before? LOL Seriously though, this is what I've been saying to those that don't like to hear me complaining or what not. You just can't continue to over charge and under deliver your product, whatever it may be, and expect customers to stay with you. Regardless of the apologists and excuse makers you may have in your corner, its not a sustainable business model. There are a thousand things out there that might be out of your hands, but there are a thousand that are totally up to you.

They definitely are not worth it when they're being produced with error after error, and overpriced parts we can do without. They're not worth it when the company isn't respecting the fans, and giving us what we want. They're not worth it when the company is hell bent on sticking with "exclusive" markets, with proven poor performance, that just shut out that fans that want to give them money. They're not worth the frustration, the disappointment , or the time. And its sad, 'cause its a great line.

Don't understand how the Toybiz goblin glider looked big enough for the figure as its supposed to, and why the rest of these are so small. Come on, that thing is too dinky to support a full grown man.

Yeah that's a shame. I think they're leaving money on the table. Really wish they'd re-issue the Hellfire Club box set for those who missed it the first time around, and this time throw in the semi-recent Wyngarde from that laughable 5 pack. For the troop builders, they need to start selling those in packs of 3-4.

I like the suit but agree that it is a bit too much on the nose. Hopefully, what we see in the trailer here is not the only suit he gets. I did get a bit of a DC Ragman vibe, but not overwhelmingly so. Also, hope they don't make him full-on out of control insane, and that it turns out the suit is a figment of a disturbed mind, and is in reality his straitjacket...

Man, I got more of these symbiote suit Spider-Man figures than I thought, but I can see I definitely passed on a few.

Agree. Needlessly sloppy and lazy. Its like they decided they did pinless, so they didn't need to make an effort on the rest. The first time it premiered, I saw a review where the response to the complaints of the lack of line detailing on the quilted sections, was to go out and buy a marker and draw/paint them in. Yep. You could go that way. But you shouldn't have to. And collectors definitely shouldn't be accepting substandard productions just to defend a company. I'll say what I said about the Dr. Strange figure- its a good figure! Shocker just about hits all the notes....but then they just snatch it away somehow. Sloppy paint, no paint, and way overused effects (which don't really go with the Shocker anyway....his vibro-blast effects don't look like that) once again take a figure that should've been "must buy" into "may buy" or even "not worthy of my dollar".

Wonderful! Maybe now I can get my appetite back tonight. Yeah, I know some of you may think I'm overreacting, but that story line to me was one of the most awful, contrived, ridiculous and despicable things I've ever heard of....I didn't buy the comics and I vowed to never buy Spidey after that.

Ugh. Hopes dashed.

Oh wow.....thats great news. That is very very great news. Thank you sir!

Right. Its the kind of thing that has just soured me on comics. They don't even try to hide it anymore. And really what I liked about Marvel was they didn't have multiple versions of the same character...stories were more original, more engaging.....one of the reasons DC had their first "Crisis" storyline was to clear out all that drek and tighten up continuity, more in line with Marvel. But now look lol. Man...those old 70s era spectaculars. "100 pages for only 60 cents". You'd get at least two new stories, some sweet golden age reprints, just some beautiful colored glory. Two shiny quarters and a dime. I'd get that, maybe another regular comic book, and toss in a 7-11 Slurpee.....all for under $2.00.

Do you remember when the ACLU then sued Nelson & Murdock for violating the X-Men's civil rights for arguing that they weren't human beings? I always knew Matt was a racist,@#$%^ who only cared about lining his pockets, never cared about the common man.... Ok before anyone gets UPSET.....I'm JOKING....that NEVER HAPPENED....
