So I was thinking about all of the movie lines in this scale... which ones were your favorite, and least favorite?

For favorite I'd have to go with the first Cap line, and Avengers. They each had all of the major characters they'd need to make, plus a bunch of neat comic-based figures. Iron Man 2 is a close second, but the overabundance of pegwarming suits was kind of a turnoff. I never even saw 90% of the line in-stores. Still, it had a nice range of movie essentials and comic-based figs.

My least favorite at this time would have to be Amazing Spider-Man 2. While there were just Spidey and Lizard for the movie side in the original ASM line, at least we got a few neat Spidey variants (Ben Reilly Spidey, Manga Spidey) and comic versions of the original trilogy's villains. What is this line, two, maybe three Spideys and an Electro? And they're severely low on articulation but still cost a tenner 'cause they have some dumb gimmick?

Iron Man 3 also ranks up there and may actually be tied. We got no "proper" figures for this line... only the Socket Poppers and the cheap-ass low artic ones. Plus since they went with the assemblers, there's no secondary characters... just Iron Man, Iron Patriot, and War Machine (who doesn't even show up in this movie as that). No Mandarin, no Killian, no Extremis soldiers, no Pepper or Happy even. Shit, why do we still not have a Pepper at least? Since they went and gave us War Machine I would have at least accepted an Assembler Rescue. That's better than nothing.

The second Cap line doesn't look great either sadly. I like the sculpts, but we're getting Cap/Steve, Winter Soldier, Falcon, and Red Skull, who again, isn't even in this movie... but no Batroc, no Crossbones, no Widow, even though she's supposed to have a pretty big role here. Plus no comic-inspired subset either, which as indicated before, I really liked with the previous Cap line.

Plus Coulson's in over half of the films and now has his own TV show and we still don't have one of him. Freakin' insane.
