Yeah, but this is a completely different Captain Britain figure. Also, the Captain America Brit figure has absolutely no context for being in the line - the closest is the Kmart exclusive pack that shows the different nationality figures. Plus, it isn't substantially different aesthetically from the MU Captain Britain figure. But the comic pack is quite different.

I mean, the same line of thinking could go towards Sub-Mariner, who peg warmed at Wal-mart here for ages. He was the modern version and wasn't popular. Now, the classic Sub-Mariner is coming out, and he is quite different from the peg warmer, but not completely different from the SDCC Invaders version. Still, I believe the classic figure will sell well because it is different and should be easily obtainable.

I plan to get the Spidey pack FOR Captain Britain - I have too many Spidey figures! I agree that Hasbro really has been pushing this figure into too many slots for somewhat obscure character outside comic fans, but at least it is different from the others - something I can't say for all the Thor movie figures or Iron Man 2 figures!
