The price point on these and the lack of accessories on Marvel figures as opposed to G.I. Joe comes down to licensing fees I would think. Hasbro owns Joe so therefore they can AFFORD to add tons of extras since they don't pay licensing fees. Its a tough time for everyone all around and if we want companies like Hasbro around for longer then I think $8-$9 is not that crazy for some pretty cool figures of our favorite "universe". Stands or no stands doesn't really matter so long as the character is there, besides I remember people complaining about wolverine having a sword, yea i agree its dumb he has six that come outta his hand so why include one more, truth is most of these heros/villains dont use weapons.
