Baron Zemo... losing hinged wrists.. He's like, one of my top three villains ever. We finally get the figure, he's looking great, and they decided to cut some articulation. It upsets me, and it upsets me more because that means that Hasbro is going to start messing with things in MU like they've done in other lines.

The exclusive Target ones are the only ones I've seen. All the rest that I've gotten have been traded for or bought on ebay. I got Sif and Koki in the mail today. I wish I'd been able to find the team 3 packs because I'd love the Warrior's Three to go with Sif.

I skipped the big set with the Quinjet, but got the other three Avengers sets. I really like the $20 set with the SHIELD pickup truck and Loki, Hawkeye, Iron Man minifigs. I'm hoping they come out with another $20 Helicopter set (like the X-Men one with Deadpool) with the SHIELD helicopter along with a SHIELD Pilot, Maria Hill, and Fury minifigs.

Sigh. I don't mind a lack of articulation, but I can't stand when a company shows you a figure and then it turns up on shelves changed for the worst with no for warning. This MU, if they start cutting articulation like this it won't stop, it's not a good sign. It's like your safe haven being taken away. No toy line is safe from "budget" cuts.

Yeah, that one was kind of out of nowhere with it coming out along with 4 Avengers sets.

. It probably didn't help that Avengers line flew off the shelves because it just re-emphazised that kids don't really care/want thigh cuts, swivel writs, and rocker ankles. In other words, Hasbro figured out that they can crap out on the toys and still make money.

I am also worry that we are starting to see the implications of the changes to the Marvel Universe and Marvel Legends teams. I can only hope that they aren't going to start messing with things. I can handle it with movie lines, because they aren't part of the regular lines (I'm including Retaliation toys in this). However, I won't accept when they start cutting articulation on things like Marvel Universe.

Trust me. I wanted to cancel it. But I had to make sure I had a set for him, since he paid me in advance. Had I found a complete set at retail, I would've just paypaled him back the difference, and canceled the hell outta that pre-order.
