Agree with this, there’s only so much they can do. Limited in characters, skins, etc.. and unlike fortnite or even Apex Legends (another battle royale game on the rise), Overwatch has been out for years and hasn’t introduced a vast plethora of characters in the much smaller period of time that fortnite has. I too feel this, but I attribute it to the sheer fact that there’s WAY more to collect these days and I often partake and don’t have time for Star Wars. I still love the brand, but I’ve had it for so long, I can try all these different flavors now.

I definitely don’t think that it’s a lack of creativity on your part. I think it mostly has to do with the current setup of the industry. Aside from anything Hasbro is putting out there, there’s a major lack of anything that matches the quality of legends. At retail, Hasbro’s biggest competition is themselves. Transformers, Star Wars, Marvel, Power Rangers, and Overwatch. Not many companies are doing what Hasbro is doing. Really only NECA can compare, but their brands are much more of a cult following and aren’t as appealing to the mainstream. Look down the toy aisles and you can see that most other toys are cheap. On the other hand, direct to consumer lines are pushing out even higher quality goods. The problem is, only collectors buy them. And they’re much more expensive. So as you said, only lines like fortnite and maybe NECA are even competition between at retail at this point. I mean, what else is there? Funko POPS! are big, but targeting a much different audience and price point

What if Hasbro lost the license?
DarthOdette replied to DarthOdette's topic in Marvel Legends Figure Discussion
Gotcha, that all makes sense to me. Most of us on here collect a bunch of other lines or figures, unlike yourself who really is only committed to the one line. It’d definitely be harder on someone such as yourself if they did lose the license -

I mean, I still find it more laid back than almost anything else online -
Will you ever be finished?

That’s probably why I’m more likely to wait it out -

Figure Material Quality

I’ve had mixed experiences across similar lines. Got the SHF Dragon Ball Z Goku and the Dragon Ball Kid Goku last year and the quality of plastic was inconsistent between the two -
Figure Material Quality

Keeping the price and quality consistent is what I want. If they can change it and not dip quality or raise price, I’ll take it
