What I think is BS is now you get a 3.75" toy for more than a Toybiz Legend was. I remember picking up Juggernaut at my local Wal MArt for $8.00 now I can't geta !#%** 3.75" figure for that much!
I could sell off my ML guys. They're all mint. Open, but mint. I might end up doing that...the MU guys, I just dig that scale. Every time I see a new upcoming wave my heart sinks. They look great and the fan in me throws confetti, but ack, what to do? The Thor/Enchantress two-pack (I think those two are a 2-pack) is murder...I'm a big Thor fan so seeing those guys has me all fevered in the brain.
I love that scale, probably because I grew up with Star Wars figures. But as much as I do dig 'em...*looks over at ML collection*...collecting a new toy line at a different scale?
Urk.
I'm stuck mentally...do I sell off my ML guys to make room (and raise $) to start collecting these new guys? It's gonna be tough to resist picking up the line when they offer guys like Klaw, classic Ultron and the Wrecking Crew (come on, Wrecker!).
Just so nobody explodes... That $120.00 price tag is for 3 sets of the Captain America / Klaw, 2 sets of Torch / Wolverine, and 3 sets of Spiderman and Thunderball so they're looking to retail for about $15.00 a set.
Though it does still suck that they're going to the small size instead of the legends scale.
Oh yeah... I am six feet tall, and one sixth of me is 12"!!!
But I don't WANT 12"!! And I don't want GI Joe size!! I don't Want Showdown, or eaglemoss or figure factory or megamorph or bobbleheads or heroclix or Unleashed or marvel select (let's add an inch so they don't fit with legends) or any of that!! I just want my legends. PLEASE!!!!!!!!
I agree that it's a bit annoying that most Marvel toys are tiny GI Joe scale toys. Actually if you notice a great deal of action figures are coming in that smaller scale now. Me thinks there be a conspiracy.
Oh no, I don't want them little things. I am sick, sick , sick of manufacturers screwing about with scale
So Klaw and Thunderball are fine to be released as titchy little gi bloody Joes, but if yo uwant 6", yo ujust keep on getting spidey, wolvie and iron man??

On a side note,
Hot Toys just got the right to the marvel lineup, So we will be seeing some really nice (really expensive) 1/6th figs.
Man, how spoiled were we with the Toybiz ML's?
