Now that they are considering relaunching the line with more modern articulation, wouldn't that alienate people whose main attraction to the line is the 5poa look?

Again, no interest at all in this, but very interested in the idea and where it's going. Best wishes to people who ARE interested, that the line takes off with some tweaks.

Some of the characters from this last series were from independent comics so I would think there would be some attachment to those characters. Since there is no way these would warrant their own line adding them to something like this seems to be a great way to get an official figure created. I really had zero interest in the Secret Wars style but now that these are in a format I collect and love I will support this 100%. I was really glad to see this was the decision made by FMF.
