That said, the slow down we're seeing may well be to sales starting to shrink. Eventually people get bored and move on and most folks are happy with the movie lineup caring very little for the kenner and expanded universe stuff.

Even the characters from the games and comics won't really add up to much, and it might be a tough sell doing bit part releases or otherwise of the 'lesser' movies (they're not IMO, and I'd just like to state that I'll likely buy anything lol).

I suspect the slowdown is the inevitable consequence of dealing with the factory backlog. So many pieces of the sublines within the two franchises were delayed, with the purple Kenner homage Club exclusive probably the most notorious. Also NECA are clearly focusing on expanding and diversifying both toys and the brand, presumably taking a lot of focus.
