They still haven't made an updated Dash Rendar. But somehow we got the black dude with the ice cream maker. The fuck?
Rumor on the web is that Hasbro is killing their 3&3/4 scale lines (less articulation, less paint, less detail) so that the scale caters strictly to kids and they are forcing anything else considered to be "collector" level into the 6 inch scale(Marvel Legends, Star Wars) so they can justify charging us $20+ per figure. Rather than have us bitch and moan about a $12 Avengers toy, they'll try and get another $8 out of us for a larger, more articulated, more detailed figure. But at $20 a pop, they better match NECA's $18 level of quality or else folks will be calling them out on their $20+ figures.
My biggest concern is that even though the MSRP is $20, retailers will try to charge even more for these and customers/collectors will be scared away.
Let's just hope Joe stays at the scale it's in. Otherwise, I'm done and will finish getting 25th-30th stuff I missed.
