What??
How would you be comparing to an actor? You're comparing 2 fictional characters.
You wouldn't be comparing ARAH Duke to Chaning Tatum, you'd be comparing ARAH Duke (cartoon, comic, figure, etc..) to RoC Duke (movie, figure, comic, etc..).
That statement just makes no sense whatsoever.

And it's a flash in the pan film line how? You've seen the future? You know this for a fact?
25th was a stagnant line, there's no growth, no new blood buying. Eventually (sooner rather then later) it would have dried up and died off.
RoC was coming regardless of what happened with the 25th line. Why on earth would the retailers say "nevermind with the movie tie-in stuff, keep the stuff that barely sells coming"
My local Target has 5-6x times as many pegs and 3-4x as much shelf space for RoC then it ever did for 25th/ME stuff.
