This and the media-seeking pundits who cater to those parents are exactly who I was referring to. Studio execs and corporates will follow the money, for the most part.

It's a rather cynical point of view, but it's mine.

Galactus will definitely be a big hit. The GB packs were well received just oddly scheduled into walmarts reset patterns. This line wide release should correct those issues, and also give us our 'supreme' Mu figure per year or 2. Can't wait to see if the sentinel will have electronics too.

I own the ML version and I still plan on getting this one too.

I think we'll see GB morph into a general release subline with maybe certain characters released as exclusives (but not just at Wal-Mart). On the other hand, it could simply become a regular release and just drop the exclusives.
