Because, from what i see at my Toys R Us, they have no idea what is going to be hot and what is going to suck on ice- my TRUS has a big dusty asile of Terminator 3 crap, odd sized wresteling figures and a wole peg of just the Guy Gardener/BLack Hand two pack (which sucks no end, BTW).

So on anything that's not pitched as a "Summer Movie Blockbuster", they only carry a minimum....and as in all things these days, reps from various companies (like hasbro) push their product: it's the Hasbro reps we should be talking to!

They could really push MU much better- endcap displays, stand alone displays (like that GL movie one), etc.

And commercials- the MU line would, in my opinion, explode if there were commercials during the Avengers cartoon! We'd all be fighting hordes of little kids to get our figs!

But, OTOH, the quality of figs might go way down if the target buyers were demographicly younger- like the Spider-Man line.
And that would suck.
