I love me some star-lord, but I'm not quite sure if this is a "need" for me or not. Face just doesn't scream Chris Pratt for me.

And jeez they are finally releasing some infinity war figures still. I like to complain about how they haven't announced any other endgame figs, or announced the endgame Rocket they showed off, but if they are JUST getting to the rest of the Inifnity War figs, it makes sense I guess. These things take a loooooooooooong time.

So you sir, clearly a big Marvel fan, would rather HT fart out movie figures as quickly as possible, risking inaccurate sculpts and missing critical accessories, as opposed to taking a step back, getting the likeness and details as best as they can be, and tossing little extras in there to add a little bang for the buck?

This figure is proof they do their best work when they work on already released films and not cash grab/hype train merchandise. As for time preorder length, well, if your that big of a fan it's unlikely you're going to not like IW and Endgame a year from now, so I'm not sure why that matters.

No no, you are correct. Quality over time is clearly important. I'm down waiting for an awesome figure. You are correct even though the Endgame figures mostly don't start releasing till NEXT May or June, I will love them just as much then as I think I will now. No issues there.

I have no issues waiting, just saying I wish they would at least announce what they have in the works. Get people's hopes up for figures they hope will come out.

But I mean your statement on them doing their best work with "already released films" and not "rushing" products out. I mean Endgame Cap and Iron Man were announced BEFORE the film came out, with "mystery accessories" which ended up being mojinir and the broken shield for cap. I mean they can obviously announce things when they want. I'm sure most of their figures are planned and in design stages for atleast a year if not longer. All I'm saying is stop releasing 4 different spidey figures in a month and finish up a line.

I agree. The previous release (MMS255) with the long coat is definitely the best so far.

Looks more like Tom Hardy than Chris Pratt to me.
