The fact that there will be a Batmobile for the 6" Bats feels like a bad omen regarding the possibility of 4" based on BvS.

I asked before, but have to ask (rhetorically I guess) again: Are 6" really that popular? It seems like Mattel, Hasbro and other companies love cranking out figures in this scale (and 7" is another). Why? At this point, I wouldn't be surprised if Hasbro released a limited line of 4" scale for The Force Awakens, and what they release they do merely for the sake of tradition (e.g. expensive box sets only available as exclusive items at specific retailers for a very limited release window).

I suppose from Mattel, all we can continue to look forward to from them are Evergreen. And maybe DC Superhero Girls will have 4" scale -- Mattel have made Disney princess figures and playsets in this scale before. And then there's Funko, as I mentioned before.

It just sucks that for the adult collector, the only choice may be Funko. If they just decided to move away from the cheesy "retro" sculpting style, then maybe this would make things better.
I don't know about the 6 inch they seem to hang around like everything else. As much as I hate to admit if Funko would just sculpt things normally I might at least have an avenue for the scale I love. Are they really making more money sculpting Flash and Arrow figures in the retro style vs a modern style? I can't believe they are. I get it for Star Trek or Jaws or Aliens. I don't for Buffy, modern DC, or any other modern property.
