We've come full circle. It's 1977 all over again.

I was at my local Walmart & Target yesterday & all you ever see in the action figure aisle is empty pegboard. The electronics dept. is usually well stocked. That's another reason why everybody is moving to ipods & video games. The stores are pushing them to buy other stuff, even if they wanted to buy toys they simply can't.

And then there's the ridiculous shipping prices online.

And the bastard scalpers.

If it were like this back in the 70's & 80's I would never have bothered with toys.

Enigma2K2 01-19-2013 10:18 PM

$10. TEN BUCKS. Does this line look worth $10?!?!?

Just bring back the Marvel Universe Iron Man figures...

I appreciate hasbro making shitty figures now a days. Gives me the inspiration to save up for figures that are actually worth my money.

All the cheap, qc ridden, 3.75" figures from Hasbro can go roast in an oven for all I care. I'll pick up some 6" figures if they have the paint, and articulation to make them worth if it. If not, oh well...other companies figures worthy of my display. Hello Hot Toys!

Excuse my language, but WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS SHIT?!

There's a War Machine in one of this year's 3-packs of MU, and I'm sure they'll do him in this line.

I didn't see that news...

I'm a 3.75 Marvel collector - all lines. This is going to make me sad with every purchase... Rather buy the Avengers dudes in bikes.

trebleshot 01-20-2013 12:03 PM

So far, I'm not impressed and don't see myself buying them when they hit retail.

I seem to recall some time ago a lot of people asking Hasbro for an Iron Man figure with swap-able armor pieces to mimic his Modular Armor design (and in some respects the War Machine armor too, since it can be outfitted with various weapon systems).

Too bad none of us realized what the cost of that kind of gimmick would be until now.

Very out of touch and not thinking from the view of a child. Of course these suck for us but for kids? A line of figures with interchangeable armor? Of course kids would find this fun.

iPads have also not replaced toys. They're competition for handheld gaming consoles, not action figures.

nomad1632 01-20-2013 02:09 PM

figures look like crap piss poor sculpts and no articulation I hope the core 3.75 line is better than this.

ZeoVGM 01-20-2013 02:11 PM

Guys, chill out a little. Let's wait until we see the main 3.75" line before flipping out, eh? I think they'll end up being mediocre like The Avengers figures but let's just wait and see.

This is no different than the "deluxe" 3.75" Iron Man 2 figures, which had the same limited articulation.

We have figures like this in every line. It's silly to judge the entire line off of these. (Although I'm not incredibly hopeful.)

ChuckSass 01-20-2013 02:15 PM

these look like Dollar store toys or like fast food premiums

mikefavata 01-20-2013 05:09 PM

Sadly, with such a low retail price... I believe the regular 3.75" series will be just like the Assemblers but without the extra arms & weapons.

mikefavata 01-20-2013 05:13 PM

To further my unfortunate point...

Tony Stark’s vault contains armor developed for almost any situation imaginable!

Enemies of justice are in for a big fight when your Cold Snap Iron Man figure slams into action! With his special Cold Snap armor that helps him handle extreme temperatures and his repulsor freeze blast, he’s going to be more than a match for his enemies no matter what the conditions are. Stand him up in your collection or get him into the fight!

Cold Snap Iron Man figure comes with repulsor freeze blast! Cold Snap armor! Poseable arms and legs!

Figure comes with accessory.
...the official description of 3.75" Series 1 (Non-Assemblers) Cold Snap Armor.

Posable arms and legs? $5.99 retail price? There is ZERO CHANCE these figures will have even the limited articulation the Avengers movie line did. This will be the Green Lantern of Marvel movie toys.

I really hope they don't end up being that bad articulated. Hopefully they at least look good.

I don't really get what happened with Hasbro. When they started their 3.75" initiative in 2009 with MU, X-Men Origins, and Wolverine and the X-Men, everything was either good or great. Even the WatXM figures were fun to collect because despite the low articulation, the actual designs were nice and they looked cool on a shelf.

Even the Iron Man Armored Adventures toys looked cool, despite the bad articulation. I get that the movie lines are more geared towards kids than the MU line but they did such a fantastic job with the Iron Man 2 figures, it was weird to see them get lazy with The Avengers, which was the biggest comic movie of all time.

Ignoring the articulation, where was the variety? At least give us a good comic line like XMO and IM2.

They're also not showing anything. I mean the figures come out in what, a month, and we've only seen these assembler figures? And at the last minute?

I love what Hasbro's done the past few years but there's SO much more opportunity here.

They never even released official pictures of the Inhumans, X-Men & West Coast Avengers 3-packs... which are ON THE MARKET.

MU has been great but everything else seems to be going to shit. We'll see how bad the future is in less than a month at ToyFair.

A $10 figure with no articulation after the shelf warming Iron Man 2 line.

Wisdom.

FadeToBlackBolt 01-21-2013 04:37 AM

Wow these suck.

Come on, Hasbro. You're better than this. This is Mattel's evergreen Batman line level garbage.

Well they are a little different. Those figures have about twice the amount of articulation (elbows, knees, wrists).

behindthemask 01-21-2013 01:30 PM

Hasbro is getting great at making instant pegwarmmers, not so good at making figures worth buying... I'm hoping they do the 6'' line well especially with the teaser of the baf Iron Monger.

This is a HUGE letdown after the Iron Man 2 line. Even if it did pegwarm forever, there was plenty of variety and most, if not all, were well-articulated (although those hope joints were just... Ugh. Understandable concept, but execution just left me cold). Just because it never left the shelf doesn't mean it was terrible; they just produced far too many of the same figure (Guardsman and the Mark IV-VI armors in my area).

I need a 6 inch to go with my movie Mark III. I don't need a million variants of Tony Stark.

All right, that's it. I'm dammit curious. Is there NOTHING that Hasbro will s*** out that you're not looking forward to?
