It better not be canned. I had the chance of getting one in NYCC '11, and I opted for an Archangel instead! Where's my gun...?

If anything, MU value will only go up because of the decrease in retail availability. That makes the line limited in numbers therefore less avail = higher demand for existing product.

There is no way any of us are EVER completing an entire Marvel Universe! Lol. That day might not ever happen so what's the use complaining about an incomplete line? There are plenty of customizers and existing fodder out there that Marvel 3.75" will ALWAYS be around... just not in snazzy packaging for basement toy store completionists like yourself.

Did the lack of availability kill value in lines like TF, GI Joe, and MOTUC? Uh nope.

Okay okay, I'm just getting scared. I know there are people like Wolverine2281 who continue to buy and re-buy MOC ML, so there will be the same types of people who want the same from MU. I just get worried when I see my beloved 90's toys floundering.

What happened to those then? Why does no one really care about MOC 90's X-Men toys? Was it just that they were awful? Was it that the Marvel Universe line came in and did better?

Holy crap, is that a thing? I'd never heard of that before.

Of course, Men in Black figures both prove and disprove that theory in the same vein, since they both come out with Wave 1 figures in suits, and are soon thereafter clearanced out... lol.
