Maybe seeing all of these Kickstarter toy companies make 100K in 2 weeks will change Hasbros mind about adult collectors. But I am sure 100K-200K is a drop in the proverbial bucket.

I really wonder if Target and Walmart dictate what Hasbro does. I think they just want figures that sell,I wonder if Hasbro just says that to pass the buck? Those Vitruvian Hacks look awesome. I think they would look great next to MU hercules and ares. I may jump in but they are a bit expensive at $30 a pop.

It seems like 1 out of 5 targets here stock the new MI line, and a chain of local grocery stores seem to get them on a regular basis, but I've only seen the remnants of wave 1 and they go really fast (other than IM and cap). I gave up and ordered a case of wave 2. Finally got wasp! I really like She Rulk, Wasp, Hyperion, Whirlwind, and Death's Head. I love how she rulk has double jointed elbows. I haven't opened the others yet. Hopefully the distro gets better soon. We got Death's head, now how about death's head II (i can only dream).
