Coulson and Agent Venom are so long over due. Coulson is ready to go - Professor X suit and a shrunk Legends head.

I may be wrong but I doubt that's the issue. Oil is cheaper than it's been in like 10 years. Plastic costs should be down. Labor costs overseas have gone up a lot. China took all our manufacturing and now they are demanding more and more money. Won't be long before it will be just as cheap to make stuff in the USA again but it will be too expensive to move the factories. |
it's the labor, not the plastic. I would imagine it takes about the same number of man hours to produce a 3.75" figure as a 6" one, you cut two points of articulation that take an individual 3 seconds per unit to assemble (6 seconds there), and 8 seconds to strip from the mold (I'm just talking production not tooling) multiply that by 500,000, that alone on one figure is 1945 man hours at lets say 5$ an hour that's $9725 saved by cutting one joint. China's emerging middle class has seen an average pay increase in the last six years of nearly 400% (as an example, Chinese consumer desire for gold jewelry, something the average Chinese citizen could not afford ten years ago, is one of the primary drivers of increased gold prices recently) that coupled with the slump in the US economy has lead to a sort of "leveling out" of the previous standard of living disparity between the US and China that gave us cheep labor to produce cheep goods. My guess the next decade will see the factories move to India where you still have a large pool of people willing to work for next to nothing and our prices for consumer good will drop again.

Holy Crap. I guess I should be thanking Hasbro/Marvel/Disney for saving me so much money next year, but on the other hand it's kind of sad when freaking Living Laser (!!) is the ONLY figure I have on my near 100+ figure wish list that's being made. And he's way towards the bottom.
I don't know even know what to say to this lins anymore. I think it's clear my future involvement with it will be minimal. |

Gamora looks great! I'm also eternally grateful that they did not give her the staple open hand/fist combo. She can actually hold her gun AND sword!!

Was gifted with single carded drax and rocket raccoon. Day went completely downhill from there. Pm me if anything super important happens if not I'm gtaing in full anger mode so if ur online and see a rooftop sniper named fat Randy I'm shooting first and asking nothing later

Very happy about Rage and he's the version I wanted. Yup I wanted Rage. Another New Warrior and Avenger down. I'm surprise he got made over Dr.Voodoo/Drumm, Misty Knight, and Spectrum.
Is Living Laser "powered up" or is that his current look? Two packs are back! Some of the best character came out in two packs. Why couldn't we simply get two heads for Carol Captain Marvel? So if you want a Kree Soldier Captain Marvel you have to pick up extra carol. |
I'm split on the MI reveals, but a good number of what I'd want for my collection are covered. So no real complaints. Wasting slots on Hyperion for a comic pack and scarlet spider/spider-man I could have done without, but eh, I might change my mind on those later if they get some decent comic exposure during All-New.
Captain Marvels are win though. That'll help the Kree troop builders too. Though I kinda wish they'd do a swap head for her instead of two versions, but hey, doubles happen. Gamorra is the exact version I'd want, and it's nice to see the GOTG filling out more both modern and classic. Comic packs coming back is great too. So we might see some great figure coverage over there while the MI waves trickle out. And hopefully it'll make some of the older ones easier to find if they get repacked into a comic pack like Scarlet Spider did. New vision is pretty win too. Might have to sell my MU one now, or maybe I'll use that one as the Young Avengers one. Overall, it's nice to see the line is still growing and expanding, so here's to some great stuff in the future!

I don't get why they put the Kree soldier, the only reveal that you could army build, in a two pack. I feel there are going to be a lot of loose Capt. Marvels on ebay next year, I think they would have done better to pack Capt. M with the alternate head, and pack the Kree in with a new Skrull or generic Nova corp. member for a pure army builder pack. and I hope Lockjaw gets some articulation before we see him for real.
|
Couldn't use Skrulls I'm assuming. That whole Fox thing.
"For Onslaught, this is the Build-A-Figure for Hasbro Civil War wave next year. The figure is almost as tall as the recent Hulkbuster Build-A-Figure. There will NOT be an alternate classic Magneto type head due to Hasbro not being allowed by Marvel to cross brand. In other words Magneto falls under the X-Men header and since this wave if figures are for Civil War they can't include any type of X-Men character in it." -from Marvelousnews |
I can't find any info on these reveals are there any links or pics you guys can share?
|
So uh... did I miss something or have I just not been paying attention. I don't remember the line ever being called "Marvel Legends Infinite"... just Marvel Infinite. I always thought Legends equated the six inch line.
