Mcfarlane Super Powers figs are 4 inch Joe Scale?
https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Produ...ils/239547?o=4 Damn, now I get why people who collected the old 4.5 scale figs are annoyed but that means they're in scale with the Retro Marvel figs and 3.75 joes right? That means all the vehicles are Joe scale. https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Produ...ils/239536?o=4 https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Produ...ils/239530?o=4

I believe that is inaccurate unless they're launching a separate line. Current super powers are 5"

Noticed that, as well. Went would they switch scales for a Retro toy line?

Nah, it's a fuck up/typo. The Wonder Woman listed as "4 inch" is just a repaint of the 5" one released a few months ago, and I doubt they shrunk that mold down to 4".

It's also odd because SpinMaster, who has the master DC license, already makes three 4" lines, Batman, DC and the DC movie figures. It'd be food off of their table, unless they're done with their DC/Batman 4" lines and just sticking to the movie figures going forward. Given how much always gets clearanced out, I wouldn't be surprised.

I see what you mean now. Look at this listing. https://www.entertainmentearth.com/p...-of-6/mf15790a 5 Inch Height 4 inch scale figures. The Typo Logic fun times are here. My bad guys, apparently even Mcfarlane doesn't know what scale their product is.

The invisible jet could make for an interesting active camo cobra spy plane. A clear vehicle mold especially a jet is super rare and offers some custom potential. The 25th era Clear Wraith could look good in it. https://www.yojoe.com/action/08/wraithvar.shtml Or maybe some of those translucent Fortnite figures could make a good pilot for it.

Honestly the whole "scale" thing using whole numbers has been screwed for a good while now. Back in the day, Spawn figures were often 6.5 inches tall. Marvel Legends rest somewhere in the 6.5 inch or larger. Bunch of craziness. Dogs and cats living together.
From Google: Unlike their much taller Mego counterparts, the Super Powers line was produced as 4.5-inch figures. So this is where I think their head is at. Anything 4-Inch scale encompasses 4-5 inches. Anything 5-inch goes 5-6 inches. 6-inch -- 6-7 inches And so on. Mind blown. This revelation is sure to be a hit with the ladies. �� And remember, it's not a lie if you believe it! -- George Costanza Last edited by Mega Convoy; 05-07-2023 at 10:32 AM.. |

Even 4" figures aren't. This Epic Heroes are actually 4" and shorter than every other 4" line I collect. Which is really bad is you want to integrate Star Wars which is still true 3.75
