dont know if it is true but i agree i want that damn ant man!!
well that sucks if its true
though, if they did stop making Comic Packs(Which is totally lame. these are comic figures), it would go the route of star wars and all the comic pack stuff shown at all the cons and such would be released at Entertainmentearth and BBTS. so we'd still get them.
Target seems to be the go to place for MU compared to shelves. TRU is take it or leave it, and Walmart depends on the Walmart. one by my work has sentinels, comicpacks, and single figures. tons of them. one across town near the other TRU has them all in Clearance. Go Fig.
Marvel will be starting its Marvel Universe TV Block on Disney XD, and hopfully with the exposure of an actual TV Block, it could lead to an increase in products at Stores if Hasbro piggybacks off of it. the Marvel Universe MMO will also give the brand name more exposure. Commercials would be nice too.
this year could be a make or break year for MU tbh. Marvel Legends is coming out which angers me to no end. I dont like Hasbro putting out a second toyline for Marvel that aims for the exact same thing except bigger. I'm hoping the Price hike will kill it as ML had problems itself during the end of Toybiz. I dont like it one bit.
Hasbro needs to push MU as its Third Best Toyline. after Star Wars and Transformers obviously. those are Hasbros bread and butter. We dont want MU to go the way of GIJoe. limited releases, pegwarmers, the same duke and snakeeyes show on the pegs. gotta get the kids behind it. there should be a marvel universe commercial on nickelodeon, cartoon network, Disney XD, and ESPECALLY the HUB once an hour. we need to pull together and keep this thing going because its been good for us. the last few years rocked, and I freakin hate walking into my LCBS and being told by the guy who runs it he thinks MU will die that year.
I do not want to see MU end up like DC's Infinite Heroes, letting the taller figure survive longer. :/
Edit : And if Comic Packs are getting Cancelled, I want Hasbro to put that money into more boxed sets and vehicles and gigantic battles. With Comics!
