It would have been preferable if they saved on plastic and brain cells. That is probably one of the worst movie toy lines I've seen. Would have been preferable to just repack the 3.75'' and 6'' Black Panther figures. Maybe pack them with unmasked heads and some other accessories and that's it. That car and figure are ridiculous.

Is that real?? Holy smokes, that would have been kind of embarrassing 25 years ago. And it's for 6'' scale, too!
Do they have any plans for a 3.75/4'' scale line?

Well, if 3.75" were selling, they wouldn't be making this "crap" instead. Companies tend to continue producing things that sell and to discontinue things that don't.
I don't think you folks realize how young the average age of kids into action figures has skewed. They're also just not as into toys as we were. They've too many other cool distractions. We wanted our toys to be as detailed as possible, and the older we got, the more detailed we wanted them, but for kids today they're just toys. The're going to either lose interest and move onto the next hot thing or outgrow them in a year or two anyway, so there isn't the level of interest sustained over years like back in the day. Parents especially aren't going to pay "super-articulated" prices for something the kid won't give a shit about in a couple of months. I hate to say it, but toys are disposable now and the price-point has to come down to those expectations. Plus, the younger the kid, the more articulation and small accessories are seen as liabilities. |

Absolutely not but I think some kids do like a quality fig but I don't know if they are in the majority. |
