But the cheapness of the release, of course, isn't lost on me. Nor am I happy with the sheer number of re-releases being pawned off as "reveals" that we've seen as of late: symbiote Spidey, Hobgoblin, etc. While I won't necessarily begrudge another Falcon being added, I didn't really need Hasbro to make another simply because Toy Biz made two; that's not a decision I endorse and I believe they could have made a better choice.

I complained years ago about abusive re-use/re-issue, but now Hasbro has convinced a significant portion of the collecting crowd that this is either a natural consequence of manufacturing toys ("bucks be expensive, yo!"), or this is a blessing to be coveted as a workaround to circumvent the perils of the secondary market (grrrrr, scalpers....save me, Hasbro!).
