Some interesting tidbits out of Toy Fair, I see. Speaking as a customizer there's some good custom fodder coming. That Jessica Jewel head will be fantastic to work with. I can see so many female characters to create and older ones to update. Nice. Also very much looking forward to the torso joint on the new figures. I'll be getting a few Caps for that reason alone.

Collecting wise, outside of the Guardians set the selection is about on par with last year in terms of non-core characters. (And just to sidebar on that Guardians travesty. It is beyond lame that Hasbro is putting these out AGAIN - a red trim Groot and leg swapped Drax is not enough to make this worth spending any amount of money on. This is the epitomy of lazy! You can't even say it's a movie tie-in because they look NOTHING like the movie characters.)

I like the S6 set even if the execution isn't stellar, but really, who still expects a lot from Hasbro anymore, regardless of scale? Anyway, the set is great for those that weren't around to buy older figures like Electro or new collectors/kids that don't have them yet. If they can throw out some decent non-core characters every year going forward, I'm good. The annoyance is yet more Caps/IronMan/Spidey figures that waste slots that could be used on more obscure characters. That is the one major thing that 6" scale has over 3.75. They get all kinds of obscure characters ready made. We have to make the bulk of ours.
