The problem is this: I have yet to see a good model for a toy collector's club subscription. FunPubs can't get there sub going. MattyCollector's is universally hated. DC's might work - time will tell. Since Hasbro already is working with FunPubs, they would likely hand it off to them, and they are over their heads with TFCC and GIJCC. Neither produces many particularly new parts - usually a head if anything - so you can't expect anything extraordinary. What you get are production quality repaints. And FunPubs is infamous for producing figures that they want to do, not what fans clamor for. (They have had massive hits and misses in recent years.)

Personally, the only criticism I have with what Hasbro is producing is that it is slower than I like - but they are doing a great job. Sure, they make too many Spider-Man, Caps, IM, etc., but they also make a Puck and 3 Absorbing Man figures in various forms of transformation. They make female characters. And they are creative.

Not sure what a club would offer except VERY expensive figures that might fill a few holes that Hasbro hasn't gotten to yet or that would not be particularly popular with even the most ardent fans.
