That is a very fair point, and I generally agree. But I also think it's because the figures all kind of sucked. The blue of their uniforms was too bright. Reed had those stupid ET fingers and that silly pornstar grin. Then there's the phenom that is Karen Storm on that twig body. I thought Johnny Storm and the Thing were decent overall. Psycho-Man was poorly done, especially in their half-baked choice to not give him a button pushing finger. High Evolutionary I thought was solid, but he should have come with some techy gear.
I think a box set with the classic look could work provided they put them all on better bodies, given them better headsculpts and gear, and maybe even add in classic Annihilus to sweeten the deal. But alas, I think you're right about the matter with the movie. Sigh.
