I'm kinda perplexed as to why people would think that any of the other figures are worthwhile or up there with some of the better MU figures.

Granted, the Odin with the mini-mates helmet and a staff is ok.

Crappy line all around. I know that during the SDCC Marvel panel it was explained in a somewhat generic way as-to why the movie lines are scaled a bit smaller than the MU line. But that still doesn't explain why the movie Thor figures are smaller than the Captain America movie figures who are smaller than the Iron Man movie figures that are for the most part in scale with MU figures. Thor should be bigger than Cap. Thats why they cast that huge dude to play him in the film. I bought one Thor figure, movie Thor, and he is as short if not shorter than Cap who is a bit short of where he should be to begin with.

Movie figures to me have always been hit or miss. I would never go out of my way to collect one unless I really liked it. But the completes in me is satisfied with focusing on Marvel Universe. This is an issue Hasbro and marvel should work on.
