I hope what you're saying about the 4" lines are wrong(but you may be right-just look at the crappy, limited articulated Avengers, Captain America, Spider-Man, and Thor figures they put out). They weren't all bad, but one of the worst things was having to settle for some figures that may not ever be released again, just to have them in your collection.
There are so many advantages to the 4" scale compared to the 6" scale. First off, more figures in a series/wave. More Accessories(G.I.Joe is a good example of this). Vehicles and playsets(how expensive is the 6" scale going to get-Black Series Scout Trooper & Speeder Bike/Jabba the Hutt-$50.00?-one of them is pretty cool(not Jabba), but too expensive for what it is).
I really thought that things were moving in the right direction when the 25th Anniversary G.I.Joe, Iron Man 2, and MU figures were released. For a couple of years, things were just great. And then they took all these steps backwards. I don't get it.
But as far Fin Fang Foom is concerned, he can fit into either 4" or 6" scale. So there may still be a chance for a BAF.
