But as straight action figures, MOTUC is miles ahead. Not considering any characters or personal favorites. Strictly speaking as action figures.
If you haven't given them a try I suggest you do. You may have a new passion. If you do own, or have owned, any, then never mind. You are entitled to your opinion (even though it's wrong)
Speaking for myself, I had a huge MOTUC collection. I had everybody and everything. I was collecting two of each character, one to open, one ot keep sealed. Then, I lost my interest in the line with all of the characters I did not care about, blackstic, too many additional figures, weapons/armors shown that required buying separate packs to get, prototypes becoming figures, and the constantly raising prices, the circus that is Digital River, etc. It also came to my realization that was I buying MOTUC due to nostalgia, not because I was a huge fan. I am a fan of the series, but not to the extent that Mattel wants me to be.
So, I sold off my collection and used the money to collect Figuarts as Sentai and Kamen Rider has been my true passion since I first laid eyes on MMPR twenty years ago. I even sold off my Transformers, GI Joes, and many other things and now pretty much just stick to collecting Figuarts and DCU (which is obviously coming to an end).
