I could go on and on, but every Summer I tend to collect Japanese figures and Hot Toys imports or statues/comics to tie me over until the fall.

Let me put it this way. I'll be at SDCC in two weeks. The guys at the Hasbro booth have always been extremely conversational and forthcoming. Often times actual toy designers are working in the booth. I'll ask, but I think the answers will already be there when I arrive.

I predict many new marvel figures will be on display, just like last year. Marvel is huge right now. With the Avengers film they just hit their stride. IM3 and Thor 2 will be big hits again. The MU line may evolve, or change, but I find it so unlikely that 3.75" non-movie Marvel is dead altogether, even based on the aforementioned "evidence."

What are hasbro playing at,they release the T joint movie spideys,yet the upcoming 6" spideys have great articulation.
