I'm actually glad we are talking about this and why it might limit some characters. It's not meant to be sexist or misogynistic in anyway, just that it's a fair point that there may be some characters/sculpts/outfits that Hasbro wouldn't be willing to mass produce.
I think everyone knows me as the misogyny police by now. The conversation is completely valid.

I feel like Rogue got the swap for a few reasons to be honest:
- She deserved a more muscular sculpt
- She deserved an update from that terrible toy biz version
- And they probably wanted her in a more identifying costume as she hasn't kept the same one for 2 years, and the Jim Lee was the only one she has.

I don't think the boob window had anything to do with it aside from it looking stupid. Did it also drive anyone else insane that the X on her boobs wouldn't have lined up properly if it was done up?

I think Hasbro has done a fantastic job picking the right characters since the box packaging/Infinite era, any females have gotten fantastic looking sculpts and character/costume choices. Black Cat actually was great, what actually offended me about the sculpt was the heels. There is no reason for a cat burglar to wear heels. Her cleavage was what the character would wear, she's sexy and the characters like DA Gamora or Satana use her sexuality, hence them being more revealing. That said Gamora has changed since then, and I'm pro classic or the most up to date costumes, so I would have wanted fishnet or armour Gamora to this day. I could see Psylocke, Typhoid Mary or Elektra getting mass produced on the more recent bucks.
