For teams like the FF - I totally understand. But for solo characters like Daredevil and Spider-Man or teams that have rotating rosters like the X-Men and Avengers, I think it's far, far more subjective even without considering gender preferences.

For example, when I was a kid, I was just fine with DD hanging with Spider-Man and fighting whoever else I had in the room at the time. The only interest I had with Elektra was when I read Frank Miller's run on Daredevil when she first appeared and died shortly after. I thought the story was amazing (and made Bullseye a badass in my eyes), but it didn't make me want a toy of Elektra - another minor supporting character who was now dead in the comics - any time soon. It wasn't until well after I grew into an adult that she got a lot more exposure and became a popular character in her own right.

Btw, Maria Hill was created in 2005, so there was no Maria Hill when I was a kid. There was barely a SHIELD back then. I know of her now and I'm a huge fan of Cobie Smulders, but I have absolutely no desire to own a toy of Hill (with or without SHIELD agents). It has nothing to do with her gender, either. I have no vested interest in the character at the moment.

The point being we all have different entry points into the worlds created by comics and that shapes a lot of our opinions regard said comic worlds and their inhabitants. So while one character might seem an essential part of a fan's Marvel Universe, that same character will have little to no interest to another Marvel fan.



Ok, settle down, Bill Murray. :P

(Besides, you just described my breakfast, which was more of a laissez faire state than outright anarchy)



Considering this is a 3.75" thread, we don't normally talk about 6" scale here. So if you don't specify a different one, we will assume you're talking about 3.75" scale too.
my bad...I hadn't typically followed 3.75 figures until recently
Honest mistake on my part...
as for the 3.75 Maria Hill...I wouldn't mind having one or a Coulson due to if they play it out in the movies right both will be highly desired by the masses
