In my opinion, I think McFarlane is old news. You don't see Dragons, Spawn, Military, or any other kind of collectors' figures besides the sports ones and Halo anymore. Companies like Neca, Diamond Select, Mezco, DC Direct, etc, are the ones to look at for collectors figures right now. Whoever owns PoP should've known that.

I used to be into McFarlane big time. When the first series of Spawn figures were released I couldn't believe how detailed and awesome they looked. I was instantly hooked. I collected the entire series up until about series 8 or 9 and then started to get bored with them. I was crazy about the Movie Maniacs line and have every figure up until the AvP wave. Neca pretty much took over now with regards to horror and cult movie figures, although Mezco does alright too.

McFarlane just hasn't put out anything of interest to me in years. I don't care for their sports, military, dragons, or anything they've been producing. The Halo figures look cool but I don't have any. On top of that, the fact that they laid off most of their sculptors and now use digital scanning to create their figures in kind of a turn off for me. The details almost never translate well that way, especially in the face.
