Great points made by everyone. I agree that it is, arguably, the most popular current line. I also agree that the difficulty in getting certain figures both adds to (collectors love "rare" anything) and detracts from (do we really need a thousand versions of spidey?) the line. I think it stems from this: it merges the numerous Marvel fans and G.I. Joe (3.75") fans. They are also a bit cheaper that Marvel Legends line (I would have loved to collect these but I missed the boat and the secondary market is brutal). As collectors grow up (I'm rounding thirty myself) they look for things that they enjoyed as kids, for me that's the Super Powers / Secret Wars lines and, of course, 3.75" G.I. Joe. Thoughts???
