The whole industry is moving towards BIG -- 6", 7", 12" and even BIGGER. What is this: Action figures for giants?

It's not the first time this has happened. There were many 4 inch lines in the late 90s and the got fazed out by 5 inch+ lines and returned. It's one of those endless cycles give 6-7 years 4 inch lines will return. Hopefully better than before. Remember gijoe did 2.5 scaled figs before had a six inch and 8 inch lines.
