This is why I believe Indiana Jones figures will be awesome to have and will probably be sought after by collectors.

This upcoming movie might be horrible or amazing. I’d say maybe horrible, but I just want that 6” Indiana Jones figure with the hat.

I'm a Marvel Legends collector and I agree that much of the deserved Hasbro criticism should be squarely affixed to how they’ve handled the comic (canon, specifically, to be even more granular) line. That said, I also believe Marvel has directives that influence Hasbro’s budget allocation and character selection. I’m convinced that Dan is a genuine comic-head and, to varying degrees, so are Ryan and Dwight. I think they would deliver more faithful translations, greater tooling, more unique parts, and consistently deep dives were it up to them. However, most working people have paymasters to satisfy that often undermine our efforts to improve the process.
