Oh, but why on earth would you want that, when you can instead have him dressed in a costume from a bad cartoon that's almost 40 years out of date???

Yeah, I agree completely.
The saddest thing is both Mattel AND Hasbro completely fail to take advantage of online resources to produce figures that have little appeal to children, but are high in demand from collectors and fans.

I fail to see why civilian figures cannot do well being sold exclusively through e-retailers like MattyCollector and BBTS.
I know most kids wouldn't care about Bruce Wayne and Alfred, or Peter Parker and Aunt May (Even though as a kid, I did). But I don't see why secret identities wouldn't do well when they're marketed directly to the fans through collector resources.
