Re: Marvel Legends discussion

I think we just have to be selective, I don’t need MCU figures. So I will buy less. Eventually they will see their mistake. Or as usual they will see declining sales and then cancel the whole line.

Re: Marvel Legends discussion

I suspect the line will price itself out of existence before we see prices being reduced.

It definitely makes sense to their shareholders lol

Yup, especially when these are some of the owners:

The Vanguard Group (10.8%)
Capital Research Global Investors (9.8%)
BlackRock (8.4%)

Maximize profit for the shareholders, to hell with everything else.

Re: Marvel Legends discussion

I fully expect a better Toad to come out in 2 years, a reuse of the mold with new headsculpt that will be part of a Brotherhood of Evil set that includes Scarlet Witch with her vintage headdress, green uniform QuickSilver, and maybe even 1st appearance Mastermind.

Hasbro stock is down for the year, so maybe reconsider.
