You make my point. You were in your 20s when you started buying your own figs, you had a financially priviledged childhood & your experience is in the "minority". Middle class & the poor don't have the cheddar to be buying their kids $24+ figures every week/month. I know I'm not buying an under 10yr old expensive figures that come out in waves of 7 multiple times a yr. I'll get em the much less expensive Marvel alternative figures. If some of you have the cheddar to get your 5 yr olds all the ML figs they want plus your own, then more power to ya. Most teens & twenty somethings are into the video gaming business than they are action figures, some of you could deny that all ya want.

Cracks me up whenever I see someone mention "Kids always want stuff" when it pertains to the ML line. I have yet to see a "kid" looking at a ML fig whenever I hit Target/Walmart/Walgreens, etc. At $24 a pop, this is not a kids toyline. No mom, unless she lives in Beverly hills , is gonna be buying little Timmy these figures. Their parents more than likely buy them the cheaper made Marvel figs & those 12' scaled 6 POA figs. Today's generation of kids is mostly into video gaming & Tide pod snorting.

Good Marvel characters that need a redo from Hasbro

Totally agree. KP shoulda been a full head shorter. Same goes for the Thing. Both were over scaled. -
Hopefully he's on a smaller scale accurate buck.

Speak for yourself, I've been craving for a classic 1st app Sabretooth since TB last made him. And the new 80s Herc buck is the ideal buck for Creed. My God, he's 6'6 not 7'6! No need to be on the Omega Red buck who's character is 6'11. Give him a mean gritted teeth head sculpt & open mouth snarling/ yelling head sculpt along with open raking hands and closed fists.

Hasbro Marvel Legends Live-Stream September 2021 Coverage

Hydra enforcer has a 6, pack. Something middle aged DumDum didn't. Doc Ock buck is the way to go for Him, Leland & the Thinker. -
If you buy action figures just to "unbox or not, display and leave alone", you might as well just but statues.

Hasbro Marvel Legends Live-Stream September 2021 Coverage
Gigantor replied to JayC's topic in Marvelous News's General Area
I logged on to Hasbro pulse at exactly 2 and while I was ordering my 5 Skrull grunts and then started payment process, they sold out! That's some BS right there. Will they be restocked again for future sales or am I SOL? -

Either one would be more than welcome by me. -
Unlike the vast majority of you, I'm content with just owing his 2 most iconic looks which are his Tiger stripe & Brown costume versions. I don't need cowboy hat wolverine, naked wolverine, AOA wolverine, half naked wolverine, robot wolverine, spy wolverine, blue/yellow costume wolverine, boneclaw wolverine or samurai wolverine! All those slots could have gone to classic core members of the Imperial Guard, Starjammers or Reavers! But the "I gotta have every version/permutation of Wolverine ever made" crowd ruins that for the few of us that aren't Wolverine groupies.

Considering that Havok is 6' tall and just 175lbs, the Bucky Cap mold is more than appropriate for him. putting him on anything larger than that would make the figure outta scale. I can even go with him being on the newer retro Spidey buck. The Sunfire buck should never have been used for the Surfer who's 6'4, Hasbro dropped the ball on that big time! Huge reason why I'll never add him to my collection. http://www.marveldirectory.com/individuals/h/havok.htm

Black costume Spidey, Hammerhead & classic Shocker are sure buys for me. Never cared for the Clone nor armored Spidey. Where's classic Tarantula at! And why is Hasbro so against giving us classic 70s/80s Falcon!?? -
Marvel Studios' Eternals Official First Trailer
Gigantor replied to JayC's topic in Marvelous News's General Area
For yrs now, even before the China virus, I'd always go see a movie on Sunday Morning around the 11am showtime. Might be 2-4 other people in the theatre with you. If you need to be the only person in the theatre due to the fear factor, then you might as well wait on it to come out on home video. -

Isn't Wolverine also dying for like the 10th time in his existence? But Marvel knows that a "Fool & his $$ are soon parted". -
