"Fans say they want more obscures, Hasbro does it, and the fans start saying they're being ignored."

Yeah we finally get obscures in costumes we don't even recognize...

If you look at the Marvel Infinite and Legends 3.75'' they did increase individualized sculpts. Look at how many of those are outright new figures with minimal parts re-usage, we had to sacrifice a little bit of articulation to get that, but fans awhile back said that'd be okay with more detailed sculpts. Black Cat, Gamora, and more are all new sculpts. Most of the Legends 3.75'' have been completely new sculpts outside of a few repacks and a few old parts usage like Hydroman that still has new lower arms.

Now that they did that, fans are complaining about no wrist articulation.

Fans wanted 80s Rogue. They got 80s Rogue. 90s Rogue was made too. Morbius is his classic costume like people asked for. I'm a fan of the newer Quasar costume so that's what I personally wanted. Ditto to Gamora's armored look. So yeah, I have no complaints there.

Vulture isn't a character I'd buy or care about, so his not getting a full on new sculpt isn't something that bothers me. Even so, they made him and fans said they wanted him. And that's one spider-man villain out of how many new sculpts this year alone?

So yeah, not rose colored glasses. The line seems perfectly fine to me if a bit on the short end of distribution but that's on retailers not Hasbro. Still can't find that Jane Foster Thor comic pack, but that's because it's selling extremely fast in my area and the stores aren't restocking it fast enough.

In fact, we even have comic packs back again. So how the "line is in decline" when it's bringing back more options to get figures and providing ways to get MCU characters still in the MCU articulation for some new additions like Black Panther, and even made an Agent 13 figure, and that massive new sculpt MCU deluxe Falcon in his new costume...

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
