Ok, here's my two cents on this and I know everyone has an opinion. I hate the "gimmick" crap and love poseability and accuracy but at least Hasbro has kept all the lines, Universe, XMO, Wolverine and the Xmen, and now Armored Adv., all in the same scale. I'm a collector and huge Marvel fan and while I may not buy every figure in every line, I want to try and build my universe with as many characters as I can. Same scale and 4 different lines allows this. Think about it if we only had Universe how long til the character you just could die for might come out. Sure 4 lines doesn't assure you getting your fav but it does increase your chances and then when you get him/her same scale allows for him/her to be displayed with the rest of your universe which ever line{s} you have. So buy the ones you want and leave the rest, that's my strategy, I love Universe foremost but without XMO I wouldn't have Sabertooth or without Wolverine and the Xmen I wouldn't have Nightcrawler. While I'm not a fan of the new Iron Man show, it'll be neat to at least get a Mandarin fig., and more armors for my Hall of Armor. Kinda long winded to say this: collect the ones you like but the more lines, the better chance of more characters for your universe.
